| Artist | Bobby Horton |
| Album | Homespun Songs of the Patriots in the American Revolution |
| [00:00.570] | Here I sit on Buttermilk Hill, |
| [00:06.454] | Who could blame me cry my fill? |
| [00:11.877] | And ev’ry tear will turn a mill. |
| [00:19.015] | Since Johnny has gone for a soldier. |
| [00:24.699] | Me, oh, my, I loved him so, |
| [00:30.200] | Broke my heart to see him go. |
| [00:35.557] | And only time will heal my woe. |
| [00:43.008] | Johnny has gone for a soldier. |
| [01:11.635] | I'll sell my rod, I'll sell my reel, |
| [01:17.881] | Likewise I'll sell my spinning wheel, |
| [01:23.113] | And buy my love a sword of steel, |
| [01:30.494] | Johnny has gone for a soldier. |
| [01:59.377] | I'll dye my dress, I'll dye it red, |
| [02:04.869] | And through the streets I'll beg my bread, |
| [02:10.614] | For the lad that I love from me has fled, |
| [02:17.973] | Johnny has gone for a soldier. |
| [00:00.570] | Here I sit on Buttermilk Hill, |
| [00:06.454] | Who could blame me cry my fill? |
| [00:11.877] | And ev' ry tear will turn a mill. |
| [00:19.015] | Since Johnny has gone for a soldier. |
| [00:24.699] | Me, oh, my, I loved him so, |

| [00:35.557] | And only time will heal my woe. |
| [00:43.008] | Johnny has gone for a soldier. |
| [01:11.635] | I' ll sell my rod, I' ll sell my reel, |
| [01:17.881] | Likewise I' ll sell my spinning wheel, |
| [01:23.113] | And buy my love a sword of steel, |
