SAY, Rebels, will you meet us,
Say, Rebels, will you greet us, Say, Rebels, will you beat us,
On North Carolina shore V In the name of God we '11 meet you, With the sword of God we '11 greet you, By the grace of God we '11 beat you, On North Carolina shore ;
Singing glory, hallelujah, Singing glory, hallelujah, Singing glory, hallelujah, To God for evermore !
With the sword of " Jeff." you meet us, In the name of " Jeff." you greet us, In Treason's cause to beat us,
On North Carolina shore : But our flag shall float forever, And our Union none shall sever, And treason punish ever,
On North Carolina shore. |
