A fun, traditional sea shanty about General Zachary Taylor of Mexican-American War fame. Despite what the song implies, Taylor lived through the war and later became President of the United States (albeit briefly before he died in office). The version I sing is based on a performance by Great Big Sea.

𝓖𝓮𝓷𝓮𝓻𝓪𝓵 𝓣𝓪𝔂𝓵𝓸𝓻 (arranged by Great Big Sea)
General Taylor gained the day,
Walk him along, John, carry him along.
Well General Taylor he gained the day,
Carry him to his bury'n ground.
To me, way, hey, Stormy,
Walk him along, John, carry him along.
To me, way, hey, Stormy,
Carry him to his bury'n ground.
We'll dig his grave with a silver spade,
Walk him along, John, carry him along.
His shroud of the finest silk will be made,
Carry him to his bury'n ground.
To me, way, hey, Stormy…
We'll lower him down on a golden chain,
Walk him along, John, carry him along.
On every link we'll carve his name,
Carry him to his bury'n ground.
To me, way, hey, Stormy…
General Taylor he's all the go,
Walk him along, John, carry him along.
He's gone where the stormy winds won't blow,
Carry him to his bury'n ground.
To me, way, hey, Stormy…
General Taylor he's dead and he's gone,
Walk him along, John, carry him along.
Well General Taylor he's long dead and gone,
Carry him to his bury'n ground.
To me, way, hey, Stormy…
