G# C# G#
Not another foot was stirring on the floor of the house
D# C# G#
except for my 'pa who'd been up for a while
G# C# G#
Seems he's headin' on after the bad word that came,
D# C# G#
of his brothers who marched but were left down all slain
D#
Please call out the cavalry
C# G#
Send them along
D#
For we need our daddy,
C# G#
and so does this farm
C#
Mama stays awake to pray,
G#
in a lonely straw bed
D#
and we rise before the sun
C# G#
with the work that he left
G# C# G#
G# C# G#
He took what mama made him to feed him on his way
D# C# G#
he kissed all my brothers, my sisters, and me
G# C# G#
he held my poor mama, looked down and said, "Son,
D# C# G#
I'll be home soon, now hand me my coat and my gun."
D#
Please call out the cavalry

G# G# C# G#
G# D# G# C# G#
G# C# G#
It's been some days without him, but we've toiled away
D# C# G#
hang onto the cattle and the crops that we've laid
G# C# G#
mama sits by the window and stares until dark
D# C# G#
and rocks by the fire and cries out her heart
D#
Please call out the cavalry
C# G#
Send my man home
D#
For we need our daddy
C# G#
and so does this farm
C# G#
mama stays awake to pray, in a lonely straw bed
D# C# G#
and we rise before the sun, for the work that you left
G# G# C# G#
G# G# D# G#
G# C# G#
been about a year since my daddy had gone
D# C# G#
when I saw an old carriage, and a coat I'd once known
G# C# G#
it was draped o'er a man who once stood proud and tall
D# C# G#
now broken and battered and missing an arm
G# C# G#
he cried when he saw us, and the words they came slow
D# C# G#
of the sunrise he found and the hell that he'd known
G# C# G#
he asked for forgiveness for failing us all
D# C# G#
his duty cut short, in the battle he lost
D# C# G#
We said, "don't mind that daddy, for now you are home,
D# C# G#
now mama cries for joy, and she won't sleep alone.
C# G#
You've sons and you've daughters, now please use our arms."
D# C# G#
Now rise before the sun, for the work to be done.
