The Southern Soldier

just a vid i made of mostly my reenacting unit and some other civil war pics with some CW music

I'll place my knapsack on my back
my rifle on my shoulder
I'll march away to the firing line and kill that yankee soldier
I'll kill that yankee soldier
I'll march away to the firing line and kill that yankee soldier

I'll bid farewell to my wife and child
Farewell to my aged mother
I will go and join in the bloody strife till this cruel war is over
till this cruel war is over
I'll go and join in the bloody strife till this cruel war is over

If I am shot on the battlefield
and I should not recover
Oh who will protect my wife and child
and care for my aged mother
Who'll care for my aged mother
Oh who will protect my wife and child
and care for my aged mother

And if our southern cause is lost
and southern rights denied us
we'll be ground beneath the tyrant's heel
for our demands of justice
for our demands of justice
We'll be ground beneath the tyrants heel
for our demands of justice

Before the south shall bow her head
Before the tyrants harm us
I'll give my all to the southern cause
and die in the southern army
I'll die in the southern army
I'll give my all to the southern cause
and I'll die in the southern army

If I must die for my home and land
My spirit will not falter
Here's my heart and here's my hand upon my countrys alter
Upon my country's alter
Here's my heart and here's my hand
Upon my country's alter

And Heaven be with us in the strife
Be with the Southern Soldier
We'll drive that mercenary horde
beyond our southern border
Beyond our southern border!
We'll drive that mercenary horde
Beyond our southern border

So I'll
Place my knapsack on my back
My rifle on my shoulder!
I'll march away to the firing line and kill that yankee soldier
I'll kill that yankee soldier!
I'll march away to the firing line...........
and I'll KILL THAT YANKEE SOLDIER!!!

@UnionStatesHeritage All all of the Confederate videos with hate? I see more blacks with the Southern Cross hanging up on the wall behind them than I do whites. And the rest of the videos are songs like this one. The War has everything to do with modern politics. If you are uneducated enough to know why, ask me, a fourteen-year-old kid.

Note: It is actually improper to call the War a 'Civil War' because a civil war is a fight over government control, not secession.

@UnionStatesHeritage Actually, in the South, we get taught Yankee propaganda like you blab out everyday, but unluckily for you carpetbaggers, we have a fine tradition of storytelling. Have you looked up the 'Immortal 600' yet? They were rich officers and aids, who you say fought for slavery. Most of America's soldier's come from the South. Go troll some Jihadists, KKK, Black Panthers, or someone who actually wants to kill and oppress people.

@AUG351 Thanks. I actually have that quote copied onto my computer's wordpad, I like to use it a lot against the Yankees.

[AUG351]

@RebelSoldat1 It means the history of this heroic struggle will be written by the enemy; that our youth will be trained by Northern schoolteachers; will learn from Northern school books their version of the war; will be impressed by the influences of history and education to regard our gallant dead as traitors, and our maimed veterans as fit objects for derision - Patrick Cleburne "Stonewall of the West"
