Major Innes Randolph - O Im A Good Ol Rebel

      [Verse 1]
    A              
Oh, I'm a good old Rebel
    E                  A
Now that's just what I am.
A
For this Yankee nation
  E
I do not give a damn.
    F#m 
I'm glad I fought agin her,
  E              A
I only wish we'd won.
  A
I ain't asked any pardon
    E             A
For anything I've done.

[Verse 2]
  A       
I hates the yankee nation
    E               A
And everything they do,
  A
I hates the declaration
   E
Of independence, too;
  F#m
I hates the glorious union-
     E                 A
’tis dripping with our blood-
      A
And I hates their striped banner,
  E               A
I fought it all I could.

[Verse 3]
  A
I rode with Robert E. Lee,
    E                  A 
For three years, thereabouts.
    A          
Got wounded in four places
    E
And starved at Point Lookout.
  F#m
I caughts the rheumatism
  E              A
A-camping in the snow.
      A
But I killed a chance of Yankees
        E                 A
And I'd like to kill some mo'.

[Verse 4]
A        
Three hundred thousand Yankees
    E                 A 
Lie still in Southern dust
   A
We got three hundred thousand
  E
Before they conquered us.
     F#m
They died of Southern fever
    E                  A
And Southern steel and shot.
  A
I wish they were three millions
  E                A 
Instead of what we got.

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