Away down South in
the land of traitors,
Rattlesnakes and
alligators,
Right away, come
away, right away, come away.
Where cotton's king
and men are chattels,
Union boys will win
the battles,
Right away, come
away, right away, come away.
CHORUS:
Then we'll all go
down to Dixie,
Away, away,
Each Dixie boy must
understand
That he must mind his
Uncle Sam,
Away, away,
And we'll all go down
to Dixie.
Away, away,
And we'll all go down
to Dixie.
I wish I was in
Baltimore,
I'd make Secession
traitors roar,
Right away, come
away, right away, come away.
We'll put the
traitors all to rout.
I'll bet my boots
we'll whip them out,
Right away, come
away, right away, come away.
CHORUS:
Then they'll wish
they were in Dixie,
Away, away,
Each Dixie boy must
understand
That he must mind his
Uncle Sam,
Away, away,
And we'll all go down
to Dixie.
Away, away,
And we'll all go down
to Dixie.
Oh, may our Stars and
Stripes still wave
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.
CHORUS:
Then they'll wish
they were in Dixie,
Away, away,
Each Dixie boy must
understand
That he must mind his
Uncle Sam,
Away, away,
And we'll all go down
to Dixie.
Away, away,
And we'll all go down
to Dixie.
