The Vicksburg Battle is the most ferocious that’s ever been.
It brought much tragedy to the town within.
Oh, the devastation and the lives that were lost.
Boys that perished cannot be measured by any cost.
Both North and South saw Vicksburg holding the Key.
The prize of that Key would bring Great Victory.
The fighting lingered on. There seemed to be no end.
The heartbreak of the city finally came to an end.
Both sides rejoiced that the fighting had ended.
Vicksburg and its people could finally start mending
