[00:23.99]Union Soldiers:
[00:26.52]I remember the first day we fell in for drill
[00:31.21]We were green as a new dollar bill
[00:34.15]I remember your mamma just cried through the night
[00:38.92]When her Charlie-boy left for the fight
[00:41.82]Now the battle is near
[00:43.72]And the moment is here
[00:45.61]It's the Union forever
[00:49.43]When the Blue meets the Gray
[00:51.36]Every rebel will pay
[00:55.32]By the sword
[00:59.19]By the sword
[01:02.95]By the sword
[01:07.48]By the vow we have taken
[01:09.76]Now we awaken
[01:11.35]Our flag flying high; We will live or we'll die
[01:13.17]By the sword
[01:21.16]Confederate Soldiers:
[01:28.52]I can shoot a mounted horseman
[01:30.43]From a half a mile away
[01:32.20]I can take a hill and hold it till
[01:34.14]We meet on judgement day
[01:36.25]I will cut a dashing figure
[01:38.00]I will make the ladies swoon
[01:39.83]I'll be back by fall to kiss 'em all
[01:41.75]If the war don't end too soon
[01:43.78]We'll make 'em all skedaddle
[01:45.57]Long before the cotton's high
[01:47.46]We can whoop 'em in a battle
[01:49.32]Sure 'nough whoop 'em do or die
[01:51.29]When the Sons of Dixie take to the field
[01:55.08]Then the battle is won
[01:56.57]For we never will yield
[01:58.93]When the Sons of Dixie fire their guns
[02:02.74]Then we'll all see how fast
[02:04.20]That a scared Yankee runs
[02:06.46]Union Soldiers:
[02:06.80]When we lick 'em
[02:07.39]We'll get home before the first snow
[02:11.23]With a chest full of medals to show
[02:14.11]When we lick 'em
[02:14.94]There'll be one hellacious parade
[02:18.68]Yeah, and maybe by then we'll get paid!
[02:21.78]All for one, one for all
[02:23.66]So let's open the ball
[02:25.55]It's the union forever
[02:29.38]By the angels above
[02:31.31]By all that we love
[02:35.39]By the sword
[02:39.08]By the sword
[02:42.98]By the sword
[02:47.32]We will march through the fire
[02:49.26]We'll climb ever higher
[02:51.26]By the dawn's early light
[02:52.16]We will stand up and fight
[02:53.21]By the sword
[02:57.00]Confederate Soldiers:
[02:57.15]I won't let no damn Yankee
[02:58.76]Tell me how I'm gonna live
[03:00.83]I will not forget and you can bet
[03:02.84]I ain't tendin' to forgive
[03:04.53]So let's polish up our muskets
[03:06.51]And give the rebel yell
[03:08.57]We'll chase 'em back to Washington
[03:10.35]Or send 'em all to hell
[03:12.23]We'll send 'em all a' runnin'
[03:14.12]From the warm Virginia sun
[03:16.02]So let 'em come a' gunnin'
[03:17.92]And we'll show 'em how it's done
[03:19.92]When the Sons of Dixie take to the field
[03:23.63]Then the battle is won
[03:25.09]For we never will yield
[03:27.50]When the Sons of Dixie fire their guns
[03:31.26]Then we'll all see how fast
[03:32.77]That a scared Yankee runs
[03:34.75]All:
[03:35.22]Now the battle is near
[03:36.99]And the moment is here
[03:38.88]It's the Union (old/Dixie) forever
[03:44.61]When the Blue meets the Gray
[03:46.50]Every (Rebel/Yankee) will pay
[03:51.26]When the Sons of Dixie take to the field
[03:54.37](By the sword)
[03:55.29]Then the battle is won
[03:56.87]For we never will yield
[03:58.21](By the sword)
[03:59.09]When the Sons of Dixie fire their guns
[04:02.05](By the sword)
[04:02.84]Then we'll all see how fast
[04:04.20]That a scared Yankee runs
[04:06.68]With our flag flying high
[04:08.49]We will live or we'll die
[04:12.44]By the sword
