A Way Down South
A down south in the land of traders,
rattlesnakes and alligators.
Ride away!
Ride away!
Come away!
Come away!
Ride away!
Ride away!
Come away!
Where cotton's king and
men are chattels,
union boys will win the battles. away!
Ride away!
Come away!
Come away!
Ride away!
Ride away!
Come away!
We'll all go down to Dixie, away, away
Each Dixie boy must understand
that he must mind his Uncle Sam
Away, away, away,
we'll all go down to Dixie
Away, away, away, we'll all go down to Dixie
I wish
I was in Baltimore
I'd make secession traders roar
Right away, come away, right away
We'll put the traders all to rout
I'll bet my boots we'll whip them out
Right away, come away, right away
We'll all go down to Dixie, away, away
Each Dixie boy must understand
That he must find his Uncle Sam,
away, away
We'll all go down to Dixie, away, away
We'll all go down to Dixie
Oh, may our stars and stripes still wave
Forever o 'er the free and brave
Ride away, come away,
Ride away, come away
And let our motto ever be
For union and for liberty
Ride away, come away,
Ride away, come away
We'll all go down to Dixie, away, away
Each Dixie boy must understand
that he must mind his uncle Sam
Away, away, away,
we'll all go down to Dixie
Away, away, away, we'll all go down to Dixie
