Lyrics

[00:03.797] I come from old Manassas with a pocket full of fun
[00:08.748] I killed forty yankees with single barrel gun
[00:12.915] But it don't make a niff-a-stiff'rence to neither you nor I
[00:17.098] Big yankee, little yankee all run or die
[00:25.266] I saw all the yankees at Bull Run
[00:30.241] They fought like the devil when the battle first begun
[00:34.105] But it don't make a niff-a-stiff'rence to neither you nor I
[00:38.662] They took to their heels boys, you ought to see 'em fly
[00:46.780] I saw old fuss and feathers, Scott twenty miles away
[00:51.203] His horses both stuck up their years, you ought to hear them neigh
[00:55.350] But it don't make a niff-a-stiff'rence to neither you nor I
[00:59.777] Scott fled like the devil boys, root hog or die
[01:08.067] I saw old Virginia standing firm and true
[01:12.647] She fought mighty hard to whip a mighty dirty crew
[01:17.052] Oh, it don't make a niff-a-stiff'rence to neither you nor I
[01:21.221] Old Virginia's blood and thunder, root hog or die
[01:29.588] I saw old Georgia, the next in the band
[01:34.348] She cut down the yankee soldiers almost to a man
[01:39.032] Oh, it don't make a niff-a-stiff'rence to neither you nor I
[01:43.115] Georgia fights a fight boys, root hog or die
[01:51.724] I saw Alabama in the middle of the storm
[01:56.105] She stood like a giant in the contest so warm
[02:00.622] Oh, it don't make a niff-a-stiff'rence to neither you nor I
[02:04.744] Alabama fought the yankees, root hog or die
