Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Brave men fought with the battle cry
Tears fill the eyes of their loved ones and their brothers in arms
So it went for Joseph Warren
[Chorus]
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
[Refrain]
Wildfire
[Verse 2]
From the ashes grew sweet liberty
Like the seeds of the pines when the forest burns
They open up, grow and burn again
[Chorus]
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
[Refrain]
Wildfire
Wildfire
[Verse 3]
Civil war came, civil war went
Brother fought brother
The South was spent
But its true demise was hatred passed down through the years
[Chorus]
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
[Refrain]
Wildfire
Wildfire
[Verse 4]
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
[Chorus]
It should have been different
It could have been easy
The day that old Warren died
Hate should have gone with him
But here we are
Caught in the wildfire
[Outro]
Wildfire
