The Rebel Soldier |
| Oh Polly, oh 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 |
| I’ll eat when I’m hungry, I’ll drink when I’m 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 moan |
| 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 passing by |
| Where I can see Polly, and help her to mourn |
| I am a Rebel soldier, and far from my home |
