Rebel Son Rebel Soldier
I Am A Rebel Soldier Oh, Polly Oh, Polly It s for your sake alone, I left my old father, my country and my home, I left my old mother to weep and to mourn I am a Rebel Soldier and far from my home The grapeshot and muskets and the cannon lumber loud, It s many a mangled body, a blanket for the shroud, It s many a mangled body left on the field s alone I am a Rebel Soldier and far from my home There is a good old cup of brandy, and a glass of wine, You can drink to your true love, and I will drink to mine, You can drink to your true love and I ll lament and mourn I am a Rebel Soldier and far from my home I ll build me a castle on some green mountain high, Where I can see Polly when she is passing by, Where, I can see Polly and help her to mourn I am a Rebel Soldier and far from my home br, br,
