[01:20.51]In July 1863
[01:25.58]A nation torn in tragedy
[01:29.59]A trick of fate, two great armies merge
[01:33.52]Gods of war at Gettysburg
[01:38.68]Devastation lies ahead
[01:41.92]Fifty thousand bodies litter the land
[01:46.84]Hell rages three full days
[01:50.24]The reaper sows, there's the devil to pay
[02:29.91]The pressure's on and the rebs attack
[02:33.50]The yanks must hold, they can't fall back
[02:37.42]Just two brigades, two thousand strong
[02:41.53]Against twenty thousand they can't hold long
[02:46.52]General Reynolds makes his way
[02:50.70]Expect no mercy from the iron brigade
[02:54.83]Until he shows they're on their own
[02:59.20]But Buford's men have a will of stone
[03:04.10]Bayonets gleam in the morning sun
[03:07.92]Smoke and fire belching from their guns
[03:12.24]Another volley and again they strike
[03:16.55]Thousands more coming down the Chambersburg Pike
[03:24.40]This tragedy and what it brings all the devastation(The reaper has his way)
[03:32.43]Men will kill and blood will spill to preserve the nation(There's the devil to pay)
[03:39.95]This tragedy and what it brings all the devastation(The reaper has his way)
[03:48.68]Men will kill and blood will spill to preserve the nation(There's the devil to pay)
[03:57.71]South of town down the Emmitsburg road
[04:01.76]The first corps are starting to show
[04:05.85]For Buford's men, they're here just in time
[04:09.68]The desperate need to strengthen the line
[04:14.68]Bodies dropping the blue and the gray
[04:18.72]Muskets fire and the cannon blaze
[04:22.86]The union fights defending the town
[04:27.20]But they're outnumbered and losing ground
[04:30.81]From the north and the west more rebels arrive
[04:35.77]Thousands more and the fight multiplies
[04:40.12]McPherson's ridge and the black hats strike
[04:44.80]A rebel sharpshooter takes Reynolds life
[04:51.86]This tragedy and what it brings all the devastation(The reaper has his way)

[07:06.60]When Jonny Comes Marching Home]
[07:09.51][Cannon ball roaring and Music]
[09:31.80]Attack, attack, general Lee gives command
[09:37.26]They're overwhelmed, the situation demands
[09:40.60]The federals retreat and rush out of town
[09:45.13]But they have fortified and saved the high ground
[09:49.61]The day ends, victory for the south
[09:53.51]Lee's as convinced as God's will is profound
[09:57.40]They are invincible and their cause is just
[10:01.64]But long street is cautious and lacking in trust
[10:06.42]Across the way the union digs in
[10:10.39]The round tops, cemetery ridge and out to Culps Hill
[10:14.34]Their lines are strong, no denying they'll stay
[10:18.48]When the confederates strike there'll be the devil to pay
[10:26.00]This tragedy and what it brings all the devastation(The reaper has his way)
[10:34.59]Men will kill and blood will spill to preserve the nation(There's the devil to pay)
