with treasure, blood, and toil.
And when our rights were threatened,
the cry rose near and far,
Hurrah for the barney blue flag
that bears a single star.
For Southern rights, hurrah!
Hurrah for the bonnie blue flag
that bears a single star!
Like friends and like brethren,
attempts our rights to mar,
We hoist on high the bonnie blue flag
that bears a single star.
that bears a single star!
First Gallin, South Carolina,
Then quickly Mississippi,
Raised on high the bonnie blue flag
For Southern rights, hurrah!
Hurrah for the Bonnie Blue Flag
that bears a single star!
There's to brave Virginia,
With the young Confederacy
at length has lent her faith.
To hoist on high the Bonnie Blue Flag
that bears a single star.
For Southern rights, hurrah!
Hurrah for the bonnie blue flag
And here's to our Confederacy,
we'll fight our heritage to save
And rather to submit to shame,
So cheer for the bonnie blue flag
Hurrah! Hurrah! For Southern Rites!
Hurrah for the bonnie blue flag
that bears a single star!
