Letras de Farewell Captain

One, two, three, four

Farewell to you, Captain, the bravest in command
Goodbye to all the soldiers who didn′t give a damn
For we're goin′ back to Richmond, buddy, leavin' here today
Gonna sell our rifles for a jug and get drunk along the way

'Twas in Virginia Harbor General Parker disappeared
Tied sleepin′ soundly to a tree
How we wept as we launched him and so tearfully we cheered
As the General drifted slowly out to sea

Farewell to you, Captain, the bravest in command
Goodbye to all the soldiers who didn′t give a damn
For we're goin′ back to Richmond, buddy, leavin' here today
Gonna sell our rifles for a jug and get drunk along the way

At the Battle of Manassas, I had my sterling chance
To bravely fight the red and white and blue
I was so blasted brave, I stuck branches in my pants
And yes, I played a tree ′til it was through

Farewell to you, Captain, the bravest in command
Goodbye to all the soldiers who didn't give a damn
For we′re goin' back to Richmond, buddy, leavin' here today
Gonna sell our rifles for a jug and get drunk along the way

Please don′t think that we are cowards
What a horrible suggestion
It′s just that we don't feel that we belong
Bobby misses his dear mother
John has acid indigestion
And I think I feel a migraine coming on

Farewell to you, Captain, the bravest in command
Goodbye to all the soldiers who didn′t give a damn
For we're goin′ back to Richmond, buddy, leavin' here today
Gonna sell our rifles for a jug and get drunk along the way

Farewell to you, Captain
We′re going to leave you now
Yes, sir!
