- General Taylor Lyrics / with translationsWell General Taylor gained the day
Walk him along, John, Carry him along
Well General Taylor he gained the day
Carry him to his bury'n ground
[Chorus:]
Tell me way, hey, you stormy
Walk him along, John, carry him along
Tel me way, hey, you stormy
Carry him to his bury'n ground
We'll dig his grave with a silver spade
Walk him along, John, Carry him along
His shroud of the finest silk will be made
Carry him to his bury'n ground
[Chorus]
We'll lower him down on a golden chain
Walk him along, John, Carry him along
On every inch we'll carve his name
Carry him to his bury'n ground
[Chorus]
General Taylor he's all the go
Walk him along, John, Carry him along
He's gone where the stormy winds won't blow
Carry him to his bury'n ground

General Taylor he's dead and he's gone
Walk him along, John, Carry him along
Well General Taylor he's long dead and gone
Carry him to his bury'n ground

Well General Taylor he gained the day
Carry him to his bury'n ground

Carry him to his bury'n ground
We'll dig his grave with a silver spade

His shroud of the finest silk will be made
Carry him to his bury'n ground
[Chorus]
We'll lower him down on a golden chain
On every inch we'll carve his name
Carry him to his bury'n ground
[Chorus]
