Johnny Reb’s Last March

You fought all the way Johnny Reb,

Johnny Reb You fought all the way Johnny Reb

Saw you a-marchin' with Robert E Lee You held your head high

tryin' to win the victory You fought for 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 outside

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 fought all the way Johnny Reb,

Johnny Reb You fought all the way Johnny Reb

I saw General Lee raise sabre in his hand

Heard the cannons roar as you made your last stand You marched

into battle with the grey and the red When the cannon smoke

cleared it 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 news about your fall The folks thought

he'd call a great victory ball But he asked the band to

play the song Dixie For you Johnny Reb and all that you

believe

'Cause you fought all the way Johnny Reb,

Johnny Reb Yeah, you fought all the way Johnny Reb

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 (yeah!)
