the rebel soldier - bobby horton lyrics
oh, polly! oh, polly! it’s for your sake alone
i left my dear old father, my country and my home
i left my dear old mother to weep and to mourn –
i am a rebel soldier and far from my home!
it’s grape-shot and muskets and the cannon lumber loud
there’s many a mangled body, with dew for it’s shroud
there’s many a mangled body left on the field’s alone –
i am a rebel soldier and far from my home!
you’ll drink your fine brandy, and i will drink my wine
you can drink to your true love, and i will drink to mine
you can drink to your true love and i’ll lament and mourn –
i am a rebel soldier and far from my home!
i’ll eat when i’m hungry, i’ll drink when i’m dry
if the yankees don’t k!ll me, i’ll live until i die
if the yankees don’t k!ll me and cause me to mourn –
i am a rebel soldier and far from my home!
i’ll build me a castle on some green mountain high
so, i can see polly as she comes p-ssing by
so, i can see polly and help her to mourn –
i am a rebel soldier and far from my home!
i am a rebel soldier and far from my home!
