Shiloh Town (Hardin)

IT IS SO COLD IN SHILOH TOWN
BIRDS CAN’T HARDLY SING
GOOD MEN HAVE LEFT THE TOWN
THEY WON'T BE BACK 'TIL SPRING

I'LL SING HALLELUJAH
YOU'LL SING HALLELUJAH
WE'LL ALL SING HALLELUJAH
WHEN THEY ARRIVE AT HOME

SUN IS BLAZIND HOT TODAY
NOW IT’S TIME TO MOW THE HAY
NO ONE’S HOME TO DO HARD CHORES
THEY’RE STILL OFF STILL FIGHTING THE WAR

THE WAR’S BEEN WON WHO HAS LOST
BUT WAS THE HEARTBREAK WORTH THE COST
MEN ARE SICK AND WALKING HOME
BACK TO PARTNERS LEFT ALONE

INST

IT IS SO COLD IN SHILOH TOWN
BIRDS CAN’T HARDLY SING
THE GOOD MEN HAVE LEFT THE TOWN
THEY WON'T BE BACK 'TIL SPRING

I'LL SING HALLELUJAH
YOU'LL SING HALLELUJAH
WE'LL ALL SING HALLELUJAH
WHEN THEY ARRIVE AT HOME
