I am Kilrain and I`m a fightin` man and I come from County Clare
And the Brits would hang me for a Fenian so I took me leave of there
And I crossed the ocean in the `Arrianne` the vilest tub afloat
And the captain`s brother was a railroad man and he met us the boat
So I joined up with the 20th Maine like I said my friend I`m a fighting man
And we`re marchin` south in the pouring rain and we`re all goin` down to Dixieland
I am Kilrain of the 20th Maine and we fight for Chamberlain
‘Cause he stood right with us when the Johnnies came like a banshee on the wind
When the smoke cleared out of Gettysburg many a mother wept
For many a good boy died there, sure, and the air smelted just like death
I am Kilrain of the 20th Maine and I`d march to hell and back again
For Colonel Joshua Chamberlain - we`re all goin` down to Dixieland
I am Kilrain of the 20th Maine and I damn all gentlemen
Whose only worth is their father`s name and the sweat of a workin` man
Well we come from the farms and the city streets and a hundred foreign lands
And we spilled our blood in the battle`s heat
Now we`re all Americans
I am Kilrain of the 20th Maine and did I tell you friend I`m a fightin` man
And I`ll not be back this way again, ‘cause we`re all goin` down to Dixielan Send "Earle Steve Dixieland" Ringtone to your Cell
