My Dad had a welding and Machine Shop. He could break C-T Pliers by squeezing the handles, he and his brothers cut and split oak for $2 a wagon load in the 30's. It took the 3 of them a day to do it. He was honest, fair and forgiving. When I hear this song I think of him nearly 20 years after he died. Thank You Charlie Zahm

This song never seems to fail to be played whenever I'm sitting around the fire at a Ren Faire with fellow smiths and metalworkers.. It's an amazing song!

THE BLACKSMITH OF BRANDYWINE As we marched into Brandywine, it was a sight to see: A giant of a man with a hammer in his hand beneath the old oak tree, And all around him on the ground, in fatal disarray, Lay a score of men who'll never fight again, or travel on the King's highway. CHORUS: Make it one for Washington and all his gallant men, One for the girl that once was mine; Make it one for the darling boy I'll never see again, And one for the blacksmith of Brandywine. We dug his grave, covered him o'er, and sadly wept a tear, Spent the day ridin' on our way till we met with a musketeer. From him we learned the story of this brave and angry man, Who undertook the British enemy with a hammer in his hand. CHORUS In Chestertown there lived a man away from the cannon's roar. Of manner mild, his woman and child, no man could ever love more; But the Tories spoke of a plot one day to waylay Washington, And he left his home and family alone. To the general he did run. CHORUS His errand done, he journeyed home but sorrow there he found. By British guns his wife and son lay still on the cold hard ground. Well, that blacksmith reached for his heavy sledge and he gave a practice swing, And they say on the line at Brandywine, they hear that hammer sing. CHORUS: Make it one.... And don't forget the blacksmith....

The New Christi Minstrels did a great version of this.

A magical man... it literally broke my family's heart when Vision forum went down the path it did, they had such a great platform for stuff like this, there was nothing that could compare, there were so many things like this that literally shaped/ influenced my life from vision forum, it wrecked my family when we heard abt. the Doug Phillips scandal, ended an empire that was a beacon for christianity. Like yes, everyone is human but that guy had a lot of responsibility for all the greatness he was at the head of & all the people that looked up to him, I feel like what Doug did was especially unforgivable.
