General Taylor gained the day
Ch: Walk him a-long, Johnny, carry him a-long
General Taylor gained the day
Ch: Carry him to the burying ground

Oo... oo... oo.. oo..
You stormy, walk him along Johnny, carry him along.
Oo.. oo.. oo you stormy, carry him to the burying ground

Dan O'Connell died long ago;
Ch: Walk him a-long, Johnny, carry him a-long
Dan O'Connell died long ago.
Ch: Carry him to the burying ground
