Fire Marengo

(album: Into The North - 2019)

Lift him up and carry him along
Fire Marengo, fire away

Put him down where he belongs
Fire Marengo, fire away

Ease him down and let him lay
Fire Marengo, fire away

Screw him in and there he'll stay
Fire Marengo, fire away

Now stow him in his hole below
Fire Marengo, fire away

Stay he must but then he'll go
Fire Marengo, fire away

When I get back to Liverpool town
Fire Marengo, fire away

I'll drop a line to little Sally Brown
Fire Marengo, fire away

I'll haul her high, I'll haul her low
Fire Marengo, fire away

I'll bust her locks and make her go
Fire Marengo, fire away

Oh Sally she's a pretty little craft
Fire Marengo, fire away

And sharp to the fore and rounded aft
Fire Marengo, fire away

So screw that cart and screw it down
Fire Marengo, fire away

Let's get the hell away from Shiloh town
Fire Marengo, fire away
Fire Marengo, fire away!
