Southern men, the thunders mutter
Northern flags in South winds flutter
To arms (to arms), to arms (to arms),
to arms (to arms) in Dixie
Send them back your fierce defiance
Stamp upon the cursed alliance
To arms (to arms), to arms (to arms),
to arms (to arms) in Dixie
Advance the flag of Dixie!
For Dixie's land we take our stand,
and live or die for Dixie!
To arms! (to arms), To arms! (to arms)
And conquer peace for Di xie!
To arms! (to arms), To arms! (to arms)
And conquer peace for Di xie!
Fear no danger, shun no labor
Lift up rifle, pike and saber
To arms (to arms), to arms (to arms),
to arms (to arms) in Dixie
Shoulder pressing, close to shoulder
Let the odds make each heart bolder
To arms (to arms), to arms (to arms),
to arms (to arms) in Dixie
Advance the flag of Dixie!
For Dixie's land we take our stand,
and live or die for Dixie!
To arms! (to arms), To arms! (to arms)
And conquer peace for Di xie!
To arms! (to arms), To arms! (to arms)
And conquer peace for Di xie!
Swear upon your country's altar
Never to submit or falter
To arms (to arms), to arms (to arms),
to arms (to arms) in Dixie
'Til the spoilers are defeated
'Til the Lord's work is completed
To arms (to arms), to arms (to arms),
to arms (to arms) in Dixie
Advance the flag of Dixie!
For Dixie's land we take our stand,
and live or die for Dixie!
To arms! (to arms), To arms! (to arms)
And conquer peace for Di xie!
To arms! (to arms), To arms! (to arms)
And conquer peace for Dixie!
