You fought all the way
Johnny reb johnny reb
You fought all the way johnny reb
Saw you a marching with robert e lee
You held your head up high trying to win the victory
You fought for your folks but you didn't die in vain
Even though you lost they speak highly of your name
'cause you fought all the way johnny reb johnny reb
You fought all the way johnny reb
I heard your teeth chatter from the cold outside
Saw the bullets open up the wounds in your sigh
I saw the young boys as they began to fall
You had tears in your eyes
Cause you couldn't help at all
But you fought all the way johnny reb johnny reb
You fall all the way johnny riff
I saw general lee raise a saber in his hand
Heard the cannons roar as you made your last stand
You marched into battle with the grey and the red
When the cannon smoke cleared
Took days to count the dead
Cause you fought all the way
Johnny reb johnny reb
You fought all the way johnny reb
When honest aid heard the news about your fall
The folks thought he'd call a great victory ball
But he asked the band to play the song dixie for you
Johnny reb and all that you believe
Cause you fought all the way
