D tho days gone BY, when my naked fsst

BY the honsysuokle tanglss where the water

And the ripple Of the river Tipped the moss
along the brink
Where the placid eyed and lazy footed cattle

And the fitting snipe stood fearless OF tho tu

And the splashing Of the swimmer In the days

A Famous southern Soldier Song.


One of the most beautiful songs OF the Sou.
thern COnfederacy never found Its way Into
print, although IL WINS one ofthe most popu
lar aoDgs Of The Civil war. This song wa.
written by An Albanian, Lieutenant Har.
ripgton.
ALTHOUGH quite popular In the South durini
The days OF the war the song is now almost
forgotten. save perhaps by q very few Con
federate Soldiers. During those days Of the
war the song was sung by the soldiers OF the
Confederacy about The camp fires and on The
march throughout the South and soon be-
came popular song Of those days. This sons
was called. The Homespun Dress"
|. The HOmespun Dress
Oh, yes, 1 am a Southern girl,
And glory In The name;
I boast oft with greater pride
Than glittering wealth or fame;
/ en- w not the Northern girl,
Her robes OF beauty rare,
Though diamonds deck her snowy neck
And pearls bestnd her hair.
Chorus.
Hurrah. Hurral
For the Sunny South, so dear!
Three cheers for the homespun dress
The Southern ladies' wear!
Now Northern goods are out Of date;
And. since old Abe's blockade,
We Southern girles can be content
With goods that's Southern made.
We send our sweethearts 10 the war,
But girls, pe'er do you mind
Your soldier love will not fo. get
The girl he left behind.
The Shutnern lands a glorious land.
And has a glorious cause;
Then cheer, TN ee cheers Tor Southern rights
And for the Southern boys {!
We Rcorn 10 wehr q bit ofs!lk,
A bit Of Northern lac
But make our homespun dresses up.
And wear them With a grace.
And, now young man, n word TO you,
II you would win the far,
Go to The field where honor calls
And win your lady Their;
Remember that our brightest smiles
Are for the true and brave.
And that our tears are Ali for Those
Who ill The soldiers grave.
