Oh, I'm a good old rebel
Now thats just what I am
For this fair land of freedom
I do not care a damn
I'm glad I fought against it
I only wish we'd won
And I don't want no pardon
For anything I've done
I hates the Yankee nation
And eyerything they do
I hates the declaration of independence too
I hates the glorious union
'Tis dripping with our blood
And I hates the striped banner
I fought it all I could
Three hundred thousand Yankees
Stiffen in southern dust
We got three hundred thousand
Before they conquered us
They died of southern fever
And southern steel and shot
And I wish it was three million
Instead of what we got
I want to reconstruct it
I'm better now than then
And for that carpet beggar
I don't give a damn
So I'm a forward the frontier soon as I can go
I could bear a weapon
And start from Mex
Oh, I'm a good old rebel
