Confederate Anthem - David Allan Coe

[Verse 1]
A E A
Oh, I'm a good old rebel, now that's just what I am,
A E
And for this Yankee nation, I do not give a damn,
D A
I'm glad I fought again' her, I only wish we'd won,
A E A
I ain't asked any pardon for anything I've done ...

[Verse 2]
A E A
I hates the Yankee nation, and everything they do,
A E
I hates the Declaration Of Independence too,
D A
I hates the glorious Union, 'tis dripping with our blood,
A E A
I hates the striped banner, I fit it all I could ...

[Verse 3]
A E A
I rode with Robert E. Lee for three years thereabout,
A E
Got wounded in four places, and I starved at Point Lookout,
D A
I cauched the rheumatism, a-camping in the snow,
A E A
But I killed a chance of Yankees, and I'd like to kill some more ...

[Verse 4]
A E A
Three hundred thousand Yankees is stiff in Southern dust,
A E
We got three hundred thousand before they conquered us,
D A
They died of Southern fever and Southern steel and shot,
A E A
I wish there were three million, instead of what we got ...

[Verse 5]
A E A
I can't take up my musket, and fight 'em now no more,
A E
But I ain't gonna love 'em, now that is certain sure,
D A
And I don't want no pardon for what I was and am,
A E A
I won't be reconstructed, and I do not give a damn ...

[Verse 6]
A E A
Oh, I'm a good old rebel, now that's just what I am,
A E
for this Yankee nation, I do not give a damn,
D A
I'm glad I fought again' her, I only wish we'd won,
A E A
I ain't asked any pardon, for anything I've done ...
A E A
I ain't asked any pardon, for anything I've done.
