It is so cold in Shiloh Town Birds can hardly sing Pretty girls gonna leave the town They won't be back 'til spring The war has been won they've come back home But they're the ones that lost I see a man and a woman alone Was it worth the cost? I'll sing hallelujah You'll sing hallelujah We'll all sing hallelujah When they arrive at home Sun is out it's hot today Children all come out to play Some are quick to come back home Others, have gone to stay It is so cold in Shiloh Town Birds cant hardly sing Pretty girls are gonna leave the town They won't be back 'til spring I'll sing hallelujah You'll sing hallelujah We'll all sing hallelujah When they arrive at home
