Rebellion Record: a Diary of American Events: Poetry and Incidents., Volume 7. (ed. Frank Moore), chapter 5 (search)
ncidents, Vol. IV., Rebelion record. by Isaac M. Ball. We're fighting for our Union, We're fighting for our trust, We're fighting for the happy land Where sleeps our Fathers' dust. It cannot be dissevered, Though it cost us bloody wars; We never can give up the land Where float the Stripes and Stars. chorus — Hurrah! Hurrah! For equal rights, hurrah! Hurrah for the good old flag That bears the Stripes and Stars. We trusted you as brothers, Until you drew the sword, With impious hands at Sumter, You cut the silver cord. So now you hear our bugles, We come, the sons of Mars, To rally round the brave old flag That bears the Stripes and Stars. chorus — Hurrah! hurrah! etc. We do not want your cotton, We care not for your slaves, But rather than divide the land We'll fill your Southern graves. With Lincoln for our chieftain, We wear our country's scars, We'll rally round the brave old flag That bears the Stripes and Stars. chorus — Hurrah! hurrah! etc. We deem our cause most holy, <

r, knowing well what you will say, When you read with tearful fondness all I write to you to-day, Knowing well the flame of ardor on a loyal mother's part, That will kindle with each impulse, with each throbbing of your heart. I have heard my country calling for her sons that still are true; I have loved that country, mother, only next to God and you, And my soul is springing forward to resist her bitter foe: Can I go, my dearest mother? tell me, mother, can I go? From the battered walls of Sumter, from the wild waves of the sea, I have heard her cry for succor, as the voice of God to me. In prosperity I loved her — in her days of dark distress With your spirit in me, mother, could I love that country less? They have pierced her heart with treason, they have caused her sons to bleed, They have robbed her in her kindness, they have triumphed in her need; They have trampled on her standard, and she calls me in her woe: Can I go, my dearest mother? tell me, mother, can I go? I am youn

oss the back of one of those bills. Green be thy back upon thee! Thou pledge of happier days, When bloody-handed treason No more its hand shall raise; But still, from Maine to Texas, The Stars and Stripes shall wave O'er the hearts and homes of freemen, Nor mock one fettered slave. Pledge — of the people's credit To carry on the war, By furnishing the sinews In a currency at par-- With cash enough left over, When they've cancelled every note, To buy half the thrones of Europe, With the crowns tossed in to boot. Pledge — to our buried fathers, That sons of patriot sires, On Freedom's sacred altars, Re-light their glorious fires-- That fortune, life, and honor To our country's cause we give-- Fortune and life may perish, Yet the Government shall live. Pledge — to our unborn children, That, free from blot or stain, The flag hauled down at Sumter Shall yet float free again-- And, cleansed from foul dishonor, And re-baptized in blood, Wave o'er the land forever, To Freedom and to

m Berkshire to Cape Ann. We will rally for the Union of our fathers, man to man! The beacon-light of Sumter gleamed o'er our hills of pine, And lighted up a war-path for the Massachusetts line, And now, we wave our starry flag along your Southern sky, Beneath its folds to conquer, or in its shroud to die; No coward in our rear guard, no braggart in our van, While we battle for the Union of our fathers, man to man. We are men of Massachusetts! and we cannot soon forget The leaguered wall of Sumter, and its broken parapet; We saw the clouds roll outward and upward to the sun, We heard your empty boasting, one hundred men to one; We stumbled in the gloaming, on our dead at Baltimore ; But our wives forgot their weeping, and from farewells we forebore, As, from hearthstone unto hearthstone, the hurried summons ran, Up! and battle for the Union of our fathers, man to man! We are men of Massachusetts! Your brothers until now; But, to your shrines of damning wrong, our free knees cannot

Song of the border. air--Bonnie Dundee. To the heart of the nation the booming guns spoke, While the true flag went down in the fire and the smoke; And the grim walls of Sumter yet echoed the fray When the loyalists rushed where the Stars led the way. chorus — Then fight for the Stripes, boys, and fight for the Stars! Confounded be treason! torn down be the Bars! Let foul traitors tremble, and rebels grow pale, As the Banner of the Union floats out on the gale! Though the land of the cypress its vandals sends forth, They are met in the path by the hosts of the North: Toward the troopers that spring from the cotton-banked stream, With the fires of just vengeance our bayonets gleam. chorus — Then fight, etc. They may flaunt in the breeze their famed rattlesnake flag; They may sneer at the Banner and call it a rag; But by all we hold sacred, above or below, We solemnly swear that their flag shall lie low I chorus — Then fight, etc. They may boast of their chivalry, boast of their bl<
