Jook Bourke - A Redhead from Chesapeake Bay lyrics



I'm a Pennsylvania boy
Born Bread and raised
But I moved south of the Mason Dixon Line
To join the war between the states
I'm not talkin bout the Civil War
Though it's civil in a way
I'm talkin bout the war I had with
A red head from Chesapeake Bay

And a wise man once told me why General Lee ordered Pickett's charge
He said, sometimes you take the fight, if the prize is very large

My father was an Irishman
And always used to say
You should never try to pick a fight
But never run away
That advice was a bit of trouble
Not the best he ever gave
But it changed my life
When I battled with
A red head from Chesapeake Bay

And a wise man once told me why General Lee ordered Pickett's charge
He said, sometimes you take the fight, when the prize is very large

Her father was a Frenchman
It seemed to me he was always right
He told me that she had a faint heart
He didn't mention her other sides
And in love, just like in war
A great admiration can arise
And a red head from Chesapeake Bay
Can turn out to be your bride

And a wise man once told me why General Lee ordered Pickett's charge
He said, sometimes you take the fight, when the prize is very large
