[00:00.000] 作曲 : Eugene T. Johnson [00:26.723]Oh have you heard the glorious news, is the cry from every mouth [00:31.026]Charleston is taken, and the rebels put to rout; [00:35.046]And Beauregard the chivalrous, he ran to save his bacon— [00:38.769]When he saw General Sherman’s Yanks, and “Charleston is taken!” [00:42.795]With a whack, rowdy-dow [00:44.801]A hunky boy is General Sherman [00:47.099]Whack, rowdy-dow [00:48.822]Invincible is he! [00:51.979]This South Carolina chivalry, they once did loudly boast [00:55.710]That the footsteps of a Union man, should ne’er pollute their coast [00:59.725]They’d fight the Yankees two to one, who only fought for booty [01:03.739]But when the mudsills came along it was “Legs, do your duty!” [01:07.474]With a whack, rowdy-dow [01:09.773]Babylon is fallen [01:11.777]Whack, rowdy-dow [01:13.786]The end is drawing near! [01:41.329]And from the “Sacred City,” this valiant warlike throng; [01:45.537]Skedaddled in confusion, although thirty thousand strong— [01:49.462]Without a shot, without a blow, or least sign of resistance [01:53.388]And leaving their poor friends behind, with the Yankees for assistance! [01:57.304]With a whack, rowdy-dow [01:59.549]How are you, Southern chivalry? [02:01.794]Whack, rowdy-dow [02:03.475]Your race is nearly run! [02:06.276]And again o’er Sumter’s battered walls, the Stars and Stripes do fly [02:10.200]While the chivalry of Sixty-one in the last ditch does lie;— [02:14.403]With Sherman, Grant and Porter too, to lead our men to glory [02:18.326]We’ll squash poor Jeff’s confederacy, and then get hunkydory! [02:21.986]With a whack, rowdy-dow [02:24.510]How are you, neutral Johnny Bull? [02:26.471]Whack, rowdy-dow [02:28.429]We’ll settle next with you!
