McGregor was the piper at the Alamo, The piper at the Alamo. 1. His name was John McGregor, defiant and tall. He played through the siege, thirteen days in all. He played through the madness of the bloody fight. He played through the sadness on the final night. 2. He piped for the defenders as the sun did rise, With hope and glory shining his eyes, And though the line was broken, he played so well, He played for Texas as the eagle fell. 3. Now the guns are silent; no bugle calls. The ghost of McGregor haunts the mission walls. If you listen carefully, on a winter's day, You can feel his spirit; you can hear him play. |
