Battle Of Bull Run

Written by Leon Payne

	  		
C                                       F                  C 
The sun shown bright and clear that day we all left Washington 

                                      F              C 
To lick the Rebel boys in gray at the Battle of Bull Run 

                                F             C 
They came from Pennsylvania and some from Maryland 

                                     F                  C 
To see the Rebel boys get spanked by Honest Abe's broad hand 


                                        F         C 
We said we'll run 'em to Atlanta and to Galveston Bay 

                                       F          C     F          C 
But they ran us back to Washington and Philadelphia and Philadelphia 


                                           F              C 
The ladies wore their brightest shawls the gentlemen were gay 

                                   F               C 
They came to see their Yankee boys whip old Virginia 

                                          F               C 
I held my momma's hand and skipped when a soldier said to me 

                                             F               C 
Would you rather have Jeff Davis' hat or the sword of Bobbie Lee 


                                        F         C 
We said we'll run 'em to Atlanta and to Galveston Bay 

                                       F          C     F          C 
But they ran us back to Washington and Philadelphia and Philadelphia 


                                        F                 C 
And then the general doffed his hat and said let's rest a spell 

                                         F           C 
And for the first time we all heard that awful rebel yell 

                             F             C 
The waters of Manassas creek became a ruby red 

                                  F              C 
And many a Reb and Yankee boy lay in the willows dead 


                                        F         C 
We said we'll run 'em to Atlanta and to Galveston Bay 

                                       F          C     F          C 
But they ran us back to Washington and Philadelphia and Philadelphia 


                                    F               C 
A fight locked in the chest of time too horrible to tell 

                                  F                C 
Virginny's true green countryside became a lake of hell 

                                                  F                      C 
Don't count your chicks before they're hatched or you'll work until it's done 

                               F              C 
Remember yes remember long the Battle of Bull Run 


                                        F         C 
We said we'll run 'em to Atlanta and to Galveston Bay 

                                       F          C     F          C 
But they ran us back to Washington and Philadelphia and Philadelphia
