Union boys will win the battles,
Right away, come away, right away, come away.

Away, away, and we'll all go down to Dixie
Away, away, and we'll all go down to Dixie

Forever o'er the free and brave,
Right away, come away, right away, come away.

Away, away, and we'll all go down to Dixie
Away, away, and we'll all go down to Dixie
