Johnny Reb, That's Me Songtext
von Eddy Arnold

Just a lonely soldier lad
Johnny Reb, that′s me
Far away from all that's home
Oh dear God, hear my plea

Hiding in the valley there
Yankee soldiers wait
When the battle starts at dawn
I know, I′ll meet my fate


Oh, Johnny Reb
Oh, Johnny Reb
A soldier man, can't cry
Don't let me be a coward, Lord
I′m not afraid to die

My life′s sixteen years, have been
Sweet as honeycomb
When the fighting's over, Lord
Take Johnny Reb back home

When the fighting′s over, Lord
Take Johnny Reb back home
