Lyrics of Johnny reb

Johnny reb
You fought all the way, johnny reb, johnny reb,
You fought all the way, johnny reb.
saw you a marchin? in with a robert e. lee,
You held your head a high, tryin? to win the victory;
You fought for all your folks, but you didn?t die in vain,
Even though you lost, they speak highly of your name.
?cause you fought all the way, johnny reb, johnny reb,
You fought all the way, johnny reb!
i heard your teeth chatter from the cold out side,
Saw the bullets open up the wounds in your side;
I saw the young boys as they began to fall,
-you had tears in your eyes ?cause you couldn?t help at all.
But you all that you believe.
?cause you fought all the way, johnny reb, johnny reb,

You fought all the way, johnny reb!
you fought all the way, johnny reb, johnny reb,
You fought all the way, johnny reb.
i saw gen?ral lee raise a sabre in his hand,
Heard the cannons roar as you made your last stand;
You marched into battle with they gray and the red,
When the cannon smoke cleared, took days to count the dead.
?cause you fought all the way, johnny reb, johnny reb,
You fought all the way, johnny reb!
when ?honest abe? heard the new about your fall,
The folks that?s he?d call a great vict?ry ball!
but he asked the band to play the song ?dixie?,
For you johnny reb, and what all that believe.
?cause you fought all the way, johnny reb, johnny reb,
You fought all the way, johnny reb!
