tennessee ernie ford – the new york volunteer lyrics
’twas in the days of seventy-six
when freemen young and old
all fought for independence then
each hero brave and bold!
’twas then the n-ble stars and stripes
in triumph did appear
and defended by brave patriots
the yankee volunteers
’tis my delight to march and fight
like a new york volunteer!
now, there’s our city regiments
just see what they have done:
the first to offer to the state
to go to washington
to protect the federal capital
and the flag they love so dear!
and they’ve done their duty n-bly,
like new york volunteers!
’tis my delight to march and fight
like a new york volunteer!
the rebels out in maryland
they madly raved and swore,
they’d let none of our union troops
p-ss through baltimore
but the m-ssachusetts regiment
no traitors did they fear
but fought their way to washington
like yankee volunteers!
’tis my delight to march and fight
like a new york volunteer!
