[00:16] |
We're the boys so gay and happy, |
[00:19] |
Where so 'er we chance to be. |
[00:23.600] |
If at home, or on camp duty, |
[00:27.800] |
'Tis the same, we're always free. |
[00:31] |
We left our homes and those we cherish, |
[00:35.250] |
In our own dear Texas land |
[00:39] |
We had rather fight and perish, |
[00:43] |
Side by side, and hand in hand. |
[00:47] |
Then let the Yanks say what they will; |
[00:51] |
We'll be gay and happy still. |
[00:54.650] |
Gay and happy, Gay and happy |
[00:58.450] |
We'll be gay and happy still. |
[01:17.800] |
Old Virginia needs assistance, |
[01:21.350] |
Northern hosts invade her soil. |
[01:25.350] |
We'll provide a firm resistance, |
[01:29] |
Courting danger, fire and toil. |
[01:33] |
Then let the guns and muskets rival; |
[01:37] |
Fill the sides of name we born. |
[01:40.900] |
We'll leave the fear of battle, |
[01:44.750] |
While the Yanks on our soil. |
[01:48] |
Then let the Yanks say what they will; |
[01:52.150] |
We'll be gay and happy still. |
[01:56] |
Gay and happy, Gay and happy |
[02:00] |
We'll be gay and happy still. |
