Tennessee Ernie Ford - Union Dixie

      [Verse]
  C
Away down douth in the land of traitors,
F
rattlesnakes and alligators,
      C                     G          C
Right away, come away, right away, come away

[Verse]
   C
Where cotton's king and men are chattels,
F
Union boys will win the battles,
      C                     G          C
Right away, come away, right away, come away.

[Chorus]
  C                       F      D     G
Then we'll all go down to Dixie, away, away!
   C               F
Each Dixie boy must understand
   C                  G
That he must mind his Uncle Sam,
 C     G     C               G       C
Away, away, and we'll all go down to Dixie

        C
I wish I was in Baltimore,
F
I'd make Secession traitors roar,
     C                     G          C
Right away, come away, right away, come away.

[Verse]
     C
We'll put the traitors all to rout.
   F
I'll bet my boots we'll whip them out.
     C                     G          C
Right away, come away, right away, come away.

Oh, may our Stars and Stripes still wave
F
Forever o'er the free and brave,

Right away, come away, right away, come away.

And let our motto ever be --

"For Union and for Liberty!"

Right away, come away, right away, come away.
