(Verse) | |
Girl with hair of flaming red | |
Seeking perfect lover | |
For to lie down on her feather bed | |
Soft secrets to uncover | |
(Verse) | |
Must be gentle, must be strong | |
With disposition sunny | |
Just as faithful as the day is long | |
And careful with his money | |
(Verse) | |
And so the open letter read | |
The news boy did deliver | |
Three months later plans were made to wed | |
Down by the King James river | |
(Chorus 1) | |
Lo, the season may come | |
Lo, the season may go | |
What love has joined together | |
Will forever be made whole | |
When the master calls the roll | |
(Verse) | |
Oh my darling William Lee | |
Take me to the altar | |
I don’t have strength to watch you as you leave | |
But my love will never falter | |
(Verse) | |
Oh my darling Marianne | |
The march to war is calling | |
Somewhere far across these southern lands | |
The bands of brothers falling | |
(Verse) | |
My tender bride, the tides demand | |
That I leave you with your mother | |
With my father’s riffle in one hand | |
Your locket in the other | |
(Chorus 2) | |
Lo, the season may come | |
Lo, the season may go | |
Beware the storm clouds gather | |
Take heed immortal soul | |
When the master calls the roll | |
(Verse) | |
But can this union be preserved? | |
The soldier boy was crying | |
I will never travel back to her | |
But not for lack of trying | |
(Verse) | |
It’s a love of one true-hearted lass | |
That made the boy a hero | |
But a riffle ball and a cannon blast | |
Cut him down to zero | |
(Verse) | |
Oh Virginia of whence I came | |
I’ll see you when I’m younger | |
And I’ll know you by your hills again | |
This time from 6 feet under | |
(Chorus 3) | |
Lo, the season may come | |
Lo, the season may go | |
What man has torn asunder | |
Will someday be made whole | |
When the master calls the roll | |
(Verse) | |
Though the storm clouds gather | |
Let the union be made whole | |
When the master calls the roll |
