Well I'm a good old rebel, yes that's just what I am
And on this land of freedom I does not give a damn
Well I'm glad we fought against it, I only wish I'd won
And I don't want no party for anything I done

Well I hates the slighty? banter in everything they do
I hates the declaration of independence too
But I'm glad we fought against it, I only wish we'd won
And got 300 million instead of what we done

I won't be reconstructed, I'm better now than then
For this good land of freedom I does not give a damn
Three hundred-thousand yankees are stiff in southern dust
And I don't want no party for anything I done
