Battle of San Jacinto

from The Silent Generation by The Dimes

/

lyrics

the volunteers crept in the afternoon,
and we'd been drinking through the night
our reinforcements, an elaborate ruse
and our perimeter defenses were too light,

the foolish general sat and sipped his wine,
while the fire took vince's bridge
he'd posted no sentries or he surely would have known,
that his demons had come back for their revenge

and so the canon's roar
turned to the sound of clashing swords
and our colors fell somewhere along the shore
of the san jacinto, oh san jacinto

then all was quiet in the afternoon,
as the smoke gave way to night
the rebels brought a call for goliad's revenge,
and they had a flag to match their eyes

and so the cannon's roar
turned to the sound of clashing swords
and our colors fell somewhere along the shore
of the san jacinto, oh san jacinto
