KGC CONFEDERATE RAIDERS FORUM
Riding A Raid, J.W. Randolph, 1863
Tis Old Stonewall the rebel who leans on his sword; And while we are mounting praise low to the Lord; Now each cavalier who loves Honor and Right; Let him follow the feather of Stuart tonight.
Come tighten your girth and slacken your rein; Come buckle your blanket and holster again; Try the click of your trigger and balance your blade; For he must ride sure who goes riding a raid!
Now gallop, now gallop to swim or to ford; Old Stonewall's still watching, praise low to the Lord; Goodbye Dear Old Rebel, the river's not wide; And Maryland's lights in her windows to guide.
Come tighten your girth and slacken your rein; Come buckle your blanket and holster again; Try the click of your trigger and balance your blade; For he must ride sure who goes riding a raid!
There's a man in the White House with blood on his mouth; There are knaves in the North, there are Braves in the South; We are three thousand horses and not one afraid; We are three thousand sabers and not a dull blade.
Come tighten your girth and slacken your rein; Come buckle your blanket and holster again; Try the click of your trigger and balance your blade; For he must ride sure who goes riding a raid!
