Bobby Horton The Why and Wherefore lyrics
The Why and Wherefore lyrics by Bobby Horton
Where, where, where, and where and where are you bound young man?
I'm off to the war with the good men and true, and hadn't you better come along too?
I speak my mind quite freely, now reely.
Why, why, why, and why and why to the war young man?
Did a man ever fight for a holier cause than freedom and flag and equal laws?
Just speak your mind quite freely, now reely.
Which, which, which, and which and which is the flag of the free?
Oh, Washington's flag with the stripes and the stars.
Will you give such a name to the thing with the bars?
I speak my mind quite freely, now reely.
Who, who, who, and who and who goes with you to the war?
Ten thousand brave lads and if they should stay here, the girls would crush aim and they'd volunteer.
They speak their minds quite freely, now reely.
When, when, when, and when and when do you mean to come back?
When rebellion is crushed and the Union restored and freedom is safe, yes then please the Lord.
I speak my mind quite freely, now reely.
What, what, what, and what and what will you gain by that?
Oh, I'll gain enough whatever the cost if freedom and hope of the world is it lost.
I speak my mind quite freely, now reely.
