Bring them back, bring them back, Together we’re one great country Bring them back, bring them back, Just let their slaves go free Lincoln and Grant Against Davis and Lee Let the war rage on [Instrumental] The end is coming I can see surrender now Lee’s at Appomattox Courthouse ready for his final bow Then one shot slays the silence with an evil blast Lincoln’s been killed tonight, his hopes are in the past, Bring them back, bring them back, To honor Lincoln’s memory Bring them back, bring them back, Reconstruct this great Country Lincoln and Grant Have set our brothers free Let this peace reign on, Together is how we were meant to be.
