Well General Taylor gained the day Walk him along, John, Carry him along Well General Taylor he gained the day Carry him to his burying ground Chorus Tell me way, hey, you stormy Walk him along, John, carry him along Tell me way, hey, you stormy Carry him to his burying ground We’ll dig his grave with a silver spade His shroud of the finest silk will be made We’ll lower him down on a golden chain On every inch we’ll carve his name General Taylor he’s all the go He’s gone where the stormy winds won’t blow General Taylor he’s dead and he’s gone Well General Taylor he’s long dead and gone
