| We are a band of brothers and native to the soil
|
| Fighting for our liberty with treasure, blood, and toil
|
| And when our rights were threatened, the cry rose near and far
|
| Hurrah for the Bonnie Blue Flag that bears a single star!
|
| Hurrah! |
| (Hurrah!) Hurrah! |
| (Hurrah!)
|
| For Southern rights, hurrah!
|
| Hurrah for the Bonnie Blue Flag that bears a single star
|
| As long as the Union was faithful to her trust
|
| Like friends and like brethren, kind were we, and just
|
| But now, when Northern treachery attempts our rights to mar
|
| We hoist on high the Bonnie Blue Flag that bears a single star
|
| Hurrah! |
| (Hurrah!) Hurrah! |
| (Hurrah!)
|
| For Southern rights, hurrah!
|
| Hurrah for the Bonnie Blue Flag that bears a single star
|
| So here’s to our Confederacy, strong we are and brave
|
| Like patriots of old we’ll fight, our heritage to save
|
| And rather than submit to shame, to die we would prefer
|
| So cheer for the Bonnie Blue Flag that bears a single star
|
| Hurrah! |
| (Hurrah!) Hurrah! |
| (Hurrah!)
|
| For Southern rights, hurrah!
|
| Hurrah for the Bonnie Blue Flag that bears a single star
|
| Hurrah! |
| (Hurrah!) Hurrah! |
| (Hurrah!)
|
| For Southern rights, hurrah!
|
| Hurrah for the Bonnie Blue Flag that bears a single star |
