'Tis old Stonewall, the Rebel, that leans on his sword
And, while we
are mounting, prays low to the Lord:
"Now each Cavalier that loves Honor and Right
Let him
follow the feather of Stuart tonight!"
cho: Come tighten your girth and slacken your
rein,
Come buckle your blanket and holster again;
Try the click of your trigger
and balance your blade
For he must ride sure that goes riding a raid!
Now
gallop, now gallop, to swim or to ford!
Old Stonewall, still watching, prays low to the
Lord:
"Good-bye dear old Rebel! The river's not wide,
And Maryland's lights in her window
to guide."
There's a man in a white house with blood on his mouth!
If there's knaves in
the North, there are braves in thc South
We are three thousand horses and not one
afraid;
We are three thousand sabres and not a dull blade.
Then gallop, then gallop,
by ravines and rocks!
Who would bar us the way take his toll in hard knocks
For with these
points of steel, on the line of Penn,
We have made some fine strokes --- and we'll make 'em
again!
