"I'm a Good Old Rebel"
(Traditional, arranged by Ry Cooder)
From Soundtrack of "The Long Riders"
[Verse 1]
Oh, AmI'm a Cgood old Re-bel
Now, Amthat's just Gwhat I Amam
For Cthis fair land of free-dom
I Amdo not care a damn.
I'm Cglad I fought a-gainst it
I Amonly wish we'd won.
And CI don't want no par-don
For Ga-ny-thing I've Amdone.
[Verse 2]
I Amhates the CYankee na-tion
And Ameve-ry-Gthing they Amdo,
I Chates the De-cla-ra-tion
Of AmIn-de-pen-dence, too;
I Chates the glorious Union-
'Tis Amdripping with our blood-
And I Chates their strip-ed banner,
I Gfought it all I Amcould.
[Verse 3]
Three Amhundred Cthousand Yank-ees
Stiff-Amen in GSouth-ern Amdust
We Cgot three hundred thou-sand
Be-Amfore they conquered us
They Cdied of Southern fe-ver
And AmSouthern steel and shot
And I Cwish it was three mil-lion
In-Gstead of what we Amgot.
[Verse 4]
I Amwon't be Cre-con-struct-ed
I'm Ambetter Gnow than Amthen
And Cfor that carpet-bag-ger
I Amdo not give a damn
So CI'm off for the fron-tier
AmSoon as I can go
I'll Cpre-pare a wea-pon
And Gstart for Mex-i-Amco
