[F] _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _

The sun shone bright and clear that [Gm] day, we all left [F] Washington
To lick the rebel boys [Gm] in gray at the Battle of [B] Bull Run
They came [Gm] from Pennsylvania and some from [F] Maryland
To see the rebel boys get spanked [Bb] by Honey's Dave's [F] broad hand
We said we'll run them to Atlanta and to [G] Galveston Bay
[C] But they ran us back [Bb] to Washington, Philadelphia, [F] _ [Bb] and Philadelphia
[F] _ The _ ladies wore their brightest shawls, [Bb] the gentlemen were gay
[F] They came to see their [Bb] Yankee boys with old virgin [F]
eyes
I held my mama's hand and skipped [Bb] when a soldier said [F] to me
Would you rather have Jeff Davis hat [Bb] or the sword of [F] Bobby Lee
_ We said we'll run them to Atlanta and to [G] Galveston Bay
[F] But they ran us back to Washington, [Bb]
Philadelphia, [F] _ [Bb] and Philadelphia
[F] _ _
And [Gm] then the general doffed his hat and said let's rest the spell
For the first time we all heard that awful [F] rebel yell
Waters of Manassas [Bb] Creek became a [G] ruby red
[F] And many a ribbing Yankee boy [Bb] lay in the [F] willow's day
We said we'll run them to Atlanta and to Galveston Bay
But they ran us back to Washington, [Bb]
Philadelphia, [F] _ [Bb] and Philadelphia
[F] _ A [G] bite locked in the chest of time, too horrible to tell
[F] Virginia's cool green countryside [Bb] became a [F] lake of hell
Don't count your chicks before [C] their [Bb] hats, or your work until [F] it's done
Remember, yes, remember [Bb] long, the Battle [F] of Bull Run
We said we'll run them to Atlanta and to [Dm] Galveston Bay
[F] But they ran us back to Washington, [Bb]
Philadelphia, [F] _ [Bb] and Philadelphia
