johnny rebel - rebel soldier lyrics
o polly, o polly,
it’s for your sake alone,
i’ve left my old father,
my country and my home.
i’ve left my old mother
to weep and to mourn,
i am a rebel soldier
and far from my home.
it’s grape shot and musket,
and the cannons lumber loud,
there’s many a mangled body,
the blanket for their shroud;
there’s many a mangled body
left on the fields alone,
i am a rebel soldier
and far from my home.
i’ll eat when i’m hungry,
i’ll drink when i am dry,
if the yankees don’t kill me,
i’ll live until i die;
if the yankees don’t kill me
and cause me to mourn,
i am a rebel soldier
and far from my home.
here’s a good old cup of brandy
and a gl-ss of nice wine,
you can drink to your true love,
and i will drink to mine;
and 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 build me a castle on the mountain,
on some green mountain high,
where i can see polly
as she is p-ssing by;
where i can see polly
and help her to mourn
i am a rebel soldier
and far from my home.
