Ohio

Henry talked about a farm in Clinton county
He said that he was dying to get away
God help him if there isn’t more to living
Than feeding cows and hauling hay

Ohio
You’re a long long way from Tennessee
When the wind blows cold come November
Light a fire remember me

Like his father Joseph was a carpenter
He married Sarah on the tenth of June
Keeps here picture there between the prayer book pages
When he was called she was 6 months due

Ohio
You’re a long long way from Tennessee
When the wind blows cold come November
Light a fire remember me

Private James M Eubanks wrote his name down
And sewed it to the inside of his shirt
He knew he didn’t want to be forgotten
In an unmarked grave in the cold hard dirt

Ohio
You’re a long long way from Tennessee
When the wind blows cold come November
Light a fire remember me
When the wind blows cold come November
Light a fire remember me
