Should Great Britain, Spain, or France, Wage war upon our shore, sir, We will lead them such a woundy dance, They will find their toes are sore, sir, Chorus Should a haughty foe expect, To give our boys a caning, We guess they will find the lads have learnt A little a bit of training. Yankee Doodle, etc. I will wager now a mug of flip, And bring it on the table; Put Yankee boys aboard a ship, To beat them they are able.

America is dandy place, The people .a.re all brothers, And when one's got a pump~n pie, He shares it with the others. We work, and sleep, and pray in peace, By industry we thrive, sir; And if a drone will not do his part, We will scout him from the htve, sir. And then on Independence Dl"y, And who's a better right to? We eat ann drink, a.nd sing and play, And have a dan~e at night too. Ovr girls are fair, our boys are tough, ~lr old folks wise and healthy; And when we have every thing enough, We count that we are weal t}:ly: We are happy, free, and well to do, And cannot want for knowledge; For almost every mile or two, You find a School or College. The land we till is all our own, Whatever the price, we paid it; Therefore we will fight till all is blue, Should any dare invade it. � Dublin Core The Dublin Core metadata element set is common to all Omeka records, including items, files, and collections.

Oh, Yes, I am a Southern girl, And glory in the name, I boast of it with greater pride Than glittering wealth or fame. I envy not the Northern girl Her robes of beauty rare. Tho’ diamonds deck her snowy neck And pearls bedeck her hair. Chorus Hurrah! Hurrah! For the sunny South, so dear! Three cheers for the homespun dress The Southern ladies wear. Now Northern goods are out of date, And since Old Abe’s blockade, We Southern girls can be content With goods that’s Southern made. We send our sweethearts to the war, But,girls,ne’er you mind--- Your soldier love will not forget the girl he left behind. The Southern land’s a glorious land, And has a glorious cause, Then cheer three cheers for Southern rights, And for the Southern boys! We scorn to wear a bit of silk, A bit of Northern lace, But make our homespun dresses up, And wear them with a grace. And now young men, a word tonyou, If you would win the fair, Go to the fields where honor calls And win your lady there. Remember that your brightest smiles Are for the true and brave And that our tears are all for those that fill the soldier’s grave.

Columbia! to glory arise, The queen of the world, and the child of the skies, The genius commands thee, with raptures behold, While ages on ages thy splendors unfold: Thy reign is the last and the noblest of time, Most fruitful thy soil, most inviting thy clime, Let the crimes of the east never encrimson thy name, Be freedom, and science, and virtue thy fame. To conquest and slaughter let Europe aspire, Whelm nations in blood, or warp cities in fire Thy heroes the rights of mankind shall defend, And triumph pursue them and glory attend. A world is thy realm, for a world be thy laws, Enlarged as thy empire, and just as thy cause, On freedom’s broad basis, that empire shall rise, Extend with the main, and dissolve with the skies. Fair science her gate to thy sons shall unbar, And the east see thy morn hide the beams of her star, New bards and new sages unrivalled shall soar, To fame unextinguished, when time is no more. To the last refuge of virtue assigned, Shall fly from all nations, the best of mankind, There, grateful to heaven, with transport shall bring, Their incense more fragrant than odors of spring. Nor less shall thy fair ones to glory descend, And genius and beauty in harmony blend, Their graces of form shall awake pure desire, And the charms of the soul still enliven the fire, Their sweetness unmingled, their mannners refined, And virtue’s bright image enstamped on the mind, With peace and sweet rapture shall teach life to glow, And light up a smile in the aspect of woe. Thy fleets to all regions thy power shall display, The nations admire and the ocean obey, Each shore to thy glory its tribute unfold, And the east and south yield their spices and gold, As the day-spring unbounded thy splendors shall flow, And earth’s little kingdoms before thee shall bow, While the ensigns of union in triumph unfurled, Hush anarchy’s sway, and give peace to the world.

We had loved and waited, He had named the day We had pledged to wed each other In the month of May . We had pledged to wed each other In the month of May. Out on the high seas he sailed Under the red ,white and blue Faithful to country and home, Faithful to captain and crew. Anchored at Havana, On the Cuban shore, Conscious of no danger, Dreaming love days o’er, Peacefully hen slumbered In his hammock bed, While the stars, in glowing beauty, Benediction said. Then came the death dealing crash, Wrecking his vessel in twain. Down went my sweet heart to death, Down went the battleship Maine. Buried near Havana, On a foreign shore Where the bells of evening Slowly toll his knell. There he’ll sleep forever In an unknown grave, But the land for which he died Will always call him brave. But the land for which he died Will always call him brave. Rouse ye, my country=men, rouse! Let not his death be in vain! Strike down the cowardly fiend That wrecked the battleship Maine.
