Album :Songs Of The Civil War
Oh Polly it's for your sake alone
I have left my old Father, my Country, my home
I have left my old Mother to to weep and to mourn
I am a Rebel soldier, and far from my home
The grape shot and musket and the cannons lumber lie
It's many a mangled body the blanket for the shroud
It's many a mangled body left on the fields alone
I am a Rebel soldier and far from my home
Here is a good old cup of brandy and a glass of wine
You can drink to your true love and I will drink to mine
You can drink to your true love and I will lament and moan
I am a Rebel soldier and far from my home
I will build me a castle on some green mountain high
Where I can see Polly when she is passing by
Where I can see Polly and help her to mourn
I am a Rebel soldier and far from my home
I have left my old Father, my Country, my home
I have left my old Mother to to weep and to mourn
I am a Rebel soldier, and far from my home
The grape shot and musket and the cannons lumber lie
It's many a mangled body the blanket for the shroud
It's many a mangled body left on the fields alone
I am a Rebel soldier and far from my home
Here is a good old cup of brandy and a glass of wine
You can drink to your true love and I will drink to mine
You can drink to your true love and I will lament and moan
I am a Rebel soldier and far from my home
I will build me a castle on some green mountain high
Where I can see Polly when she is passing by
Where I can see Polly and help her to mourn
I am a Rebel soldier and far from my home
