The Battle of Bull Run - Johnny Horton[00:00:00]

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

We all left Washington[00:00:12]

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

At the Battle of Bull Run[00:00:17]

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

To see the Rebel boys get spanked by[00:00:24]

Honest Abe's broad hand[00:00:27]

We said we'll run 'em to Atlanta and to Galveston Bay[00:00:31]

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

And Philadelphia[00:00:41]

The ladies wore their brightest shawls[00:00:47]

The gentlemen were gay[00:00:48]

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

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

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

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

We said we'll run 'em to Atlanta and to Galveston Bay[00:01:06]

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

And Philadelphia[00:01:16]

And then the general doffed his hat and said let's rest a spell[00:01:21]

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

The waters of Manassas Creek became a ruby red[00:01:30]

And many a Reb and Yankee boy lay in the willows dead[00:01:35]

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

But they run us back to Washington and Philadelphia[00:01:46]

And Philadelphia[00:01:50]

A fight locked in the chest of time too horrible to tell[00:01:55]

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

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

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

Remember yes remember long the Battle of Bull Run[00:02:10]

We said we'll run 'em to Atlanta and to Galveston Bay[00:02:16]

But they ran us back to Washington and Philadelphia[00:02:21]

And Philadelphia[00:02:26]
