I Can Whip The Scoundrel |
The yankees came to Baldwin, they came upon the rear |
They thought they’d find old Abner but old Abner was not there |
So lay 10 dollars down, or 20 if you choose |
For I can whip the yankee, that stole old Abner’s shoes |
Jeff Davis was a gentleman |
Jeff Davis was no fool |
Jeff Davis rode a dapple gray |
And Abe Lincoln rode a mule |
So lay 10 dollars down, or 20 if you choose |
For I can take the hide off the yankee, that stole old Abner’s shoes |
The yankees took me prisoner, they used me rough it’s true |
They took from me my knapsack and they stole bys blanket too |
So lay 10 dollars down, or 20 if you choose |
For I can whip the scoundrel, that stole old Abner’s shoes |
The yankees took me prisoner, and if I get parole |
I’ll go right back and fight them, I will upon my soul |
Then lay 10 dollars down, or 20 if you choose |
For I can whip the yankee, that stole old Abner’s shoes |
For I can whip the yankee, that stole old Abner’s shoes |
