    D                                       G                 D
The sun shown bright and clear that day, we all left Washing- ton
   D                                  G              D
To lick the Rebel boys in grey at the Battle of Bull Run
     D                          G               D
They came from Pennsylvania and some from Mary- land
   D                                 G                  D
To see the Rebel boys get spanked by Honest Abe's broad hand
              D                                   Bm
We said we'll run 'em to Atlanta and to Galveston Bay
         D                             G            D
But they ran us back to Washington and Philadelphi- a
    G            D
And Philadelphi- a
    D                                       G              D
The ladies wore their brightest shawls, the gentlemen were gay
                                        G            D
They came to see their Yankee boys WHIP old Virgini- a
  D                                        G               D
I held my momma's hand and skipped, when a soldier said to me
          D                                  D               D
Would you rather have Jeff Davis' hat or the sword of Bobbie Lee
              D                                   Bm
We said we'll run 'em to Atlanta and to Galveston Bay
         D                             G            D
But they ran us back to Washington and Philadelphi- a
    G            D
And Philadelphi- a
    D                                   G                 D
And then the general doffed his hat and said let's rest a spell
    D                                    G           D
And for the first time we all heard that awful rebel yell
    D                            G           D
The waters of MANASSAS creek be- came a ruby red
    D                             G              D
And many a Reb and Yankee boy lay in the willows dead
              D                                   Bm
We said we'll run 'em to Atlanta and to Galveston Bay
         D                             G            D
But they ran us back to Washington and Philadelphi- a
    G            D
And Philadelphi- a
  D                                     G           D
A fight locked in the chest of time too horrible to tell
     D                                  G              D
Vir- ginny's true green countryside be- came a lake of hell
      D                                                  G               D
Don't count your chicks before they're hatched or you'll work until it's done
    D                            G              D
Re- member yes remember long the Battle of Bull Run
              D                                   Bm
We said we'll run 'em to Atlanta and to Galveston Bay
