I am a good old rebel, that's just what I am
For this fair land of freedom I do not care a damn
I'm glad I fought against it but I only wished I'd won
And I don't want a pardon for anything I've done

I hate the constitution, this great republic too
I hate the Freedman's Bureau in uniforms so blue
I hate the nasty eagle with all the brag and fuss
And the lying, thieving Yankees, I hate 'em worse and worse

I hate the Yankee nation and everything they do
I hate the Declaration of Independence too
I hate the glorious Union, 'tis dripping with our blood
And I hate their Yankee banner and I fought it all I could

I followed old Marse Robert for four year near about
Got wounded in three place and starved at Point Lookout
I caught the rheumatism a-campin' in the snow
But I caught a choice of Yankees and I wish I'd caught some more

Three hundred thousand Yankees lie stiff in Southern dust
We got three hundred thousand before they conquered us
They died of Southern fever, Southern steel and shot
And I wish it was three million instead of what we got

I can't take up my musket and fight 'em now no more
But I ain't goin' to love 'em now that's certain sure
And I don't want no pardon for what I was and am
And I won't be reconstructed and I don't give a damn

DMF, wait til the second ammendment is repealed.  You'll see a whole lot of states break off at once, and california will mysteriously dissappear.



It'll happen a lot sooner then you think.

There was no confusion vorticon; only a mis-type on my part.

 I have that song "The Confederate Anthem" on my other P/C Bruno

 & the words to "The night they drove old Dixie down"  had "when Stolemans cavalry came" I believe, it wasn't  "when so much cavalry came" I think that was Joan Baez's stoned self flubbing the lyrics lol

 I do believe this country is headed towards an uprising of some sort, & if one state decided to secceed there would be others; but the Federal Govt. will never allow it; they will send in troops. Remember the troubles of the last decade or so, posse comitatus was just so much paper.

 Think back to when Rodney King got his butt in a bind with some over-zealous police. The federal govt. activated troops from fort ord & sent them in with a quickness.

 The Branch Davidians, executed with the help of federal troops & equipment; the F.B.I. doesn't posses flame thrower tanks & the L.A.V.'s I saw were military issue. Does the F.B.I. even possess bradley fighting vehicles?

 There has been plenty of evidence that the federal govt. still views the states as one nation in perpetuity. If they ever come door to door in an attempt to confiscate weapons in defiance of our second amendment rights, I am afraid I will have no choice but to leave my beloved country unless open revolt begins, in which case I will take a side.

 Without looking it up, I believe Texas was the only state to be it's own republic prior to becoming a state in the union.
