We are a band of brothers, and native to the soil, Fighting for the property we gained by honest toil; And when our rights were threatened, the cry rose near and far; Hurrah! for the bonnie blue flag that bears a Single star Hurrah! hurrah! for Southern rights! hurrah! Hurrah! for the bonnie blue flag that bears a single star As long as the Union was faithful to her trust, Like friends and like brothers, kind were we and just; But now, when Northern treachery attempts our rights to mar, We hoist, on high, the bonnie blue flag that bears a single star. Hurrah! hurrah! for Southern rights! hurrah! Hurrah! for the bonnie blue flag that bears a single star
