The Rebel Soldier Lyrics
O Polly, O Polly, It`s for your sake alone,
I`ve left my old father, My country and my home.
I`ve left my old mother, To weep and to mourn,I am a Rebel soldier, And far from my home.
I`ll eat when I`m hungry, I`ll drink when I`m dry,
If the Yankees don`t kill me, I`ll live until I die.
If the Yankees don`t kill me, and cause me to moan,
I am a Rebel soldier, And far from my home.
I`ll build me a castle on the mountain, On some green mountain high,

Where I can see Polly, As she is passing by:
Where I can see Polly, And help her to mourn,
I am a Rebel soldier, And far from my home.
