[00:00:00] The battle of bull run - Johnny Horton

[00:00:01] Written by：Payne

[00:00:10] The sun shone bright and clear that day

[00:00:13] We all left Washington

[00:00:15] To lick the rebel boys in grey

[00:00:17] At the battle of bull run

[00:00:20] They came from Pennsylvania and some from Maryland

[00:00:25] To see the rebel boys get spanked by

[00:00:28] Honest Abe s broad hand

[00:00:30] We said we'll run em to Atlanta and to Galveston Bay

[00:00:36] But they ran us back to Washington and Philadelphia

[00:00:41] And Philadelphia

[00:00:45] The ladies wore their brightest shawls

[00:00:47] The gentlemen were gay

[00:00:50] They came to see their Yankee boys whip old Virginia

[00:00:55] I held my momma's hand and skipped

[00:00:57] When a soldier said to me

[00:01:00] Would you rather have Jeff Davis hat or the sword of Bobbie Lee

[00:01:05] We said we'll run em to Atlanta and to Galveston Bay

[00:01:11] But they ran us back to Washington and Philadelphia

[00:01:16] And Philadelphia

[00:01:20] And then the general doffed his hat and said let's rest a spell

[00:01:25] And for the first time we all heard that awful rebel yell

[00:01:30] The waters of Massasoit creek became a Ruby red

[00:01:34] And many a Reb and Yankee boy lay in the willows dead

[00:01:40] We said we'll run em to Atlanta and to Galveston Bay

[00:01:45] But they run us back to Washington and Philadelphia

[00:01:50] And Philadelphia

[00:01:54] A fight locked in the chest of time too horrible to tell

[00:01:59] Virginny's cool green countryside became a lake of hell

[00:02:04] Don't count your chicks before they're hatched

[00:02:07] Or your work until it's done

[00:02:09] Remember yes remember long the battle of bull run

[00:02:15] We said we'll run em to Atlanta and to Galveston Bay

[00:02:20] But they ran us back to Washington and Philadelphia

[00:02:25] And Philadelphia
