Wildfire Lyrics - Mandolin Orange

Brave men fall with a battle cry 

Tears fill the eyes of their loved ones and their brothers in arms 

So it went, for Joseph Warren 

It should have been different, it could have been easy 

His rank could have saved him, but a country unborn needs bravery 

And it spread like wildfire 

Wildfire

From the ashes grew sweet liberty 

Like the seeds of the pines when the forest burns 

They open up, grow and burn again 

It should have been different, it could have been easy 

But too much money rolled in to ever end slavery 

The cry for war spread like wildfire 

Wildfire 

Wildfire 

Civil war came, civil war went 

Brother fought brother, the south was spent 

But its true demise was hatred, passed down through the years 

It should have been different, it could have been easy 

But pride has a way of holding too firm to history 

And it burns like wildfire 

Wildfire 

Wildfire 

I was born a southern son 

In a small southern town where the rebels run wild 

They beat their chest and they swear: we're gonna rise again 

It should have been different, it could have been easy 

The day that old Warren died, hate should have gone with it 

But here we are, caught in the wildfire 

Wildfire
