The Southern Wagon Lyrics by Derek Warfield

2007

[Verse 1]
Come all ye sons of Eireann, and join our Southern band
We're gonna fight the enemy and drive them from our land!
Justice is our motto, and Providence our guide
So jump on the wagon, and we'll all take a ride!
[Chorus]
Wait for the wagon, the dissolution wagon!
The South is our wagon, and we'll all take a ride!
Wait for the wagon, the dissolution wagon!
Texas is our wagon and we'll all take a ride!
[Verse 2]
Secession is our watchword, our rights we will demand
And to defend our families, we give our hearts and hands!
Jeff Davis is our prеsident, and Stephens by his sidе
Brave Cunningham and Cleburne will join us in the ride!
[Chorus]
Wait for the wagon, the dissolution wagon!
The South is our wagon, and we'll all take a ride!
Wait for the wagon, the dissolution wagon!
The South is our wagon and we'll all take a ride!
[Verse 3]
Our wagon, it is big enough, the running gear is good
It's stuffed around with cotton and it's made from Southern wood!
Carolina is the driver, with Georgia by her side
Virginia will raise the flag, we'll all take a ride!
[Chorus]
Wait for the wagon, the dissolution wagon!
The South is our wagon, and we'll all take a ride!
Wait for the wagon, the dissolution wagon!
The South is our wagon and we'll all take a ride!
[Verse 4]
There's Tennessee and Texas are also in the ring
They wouldn't have a government where cotton wasn't king!
Alabama, now, and Florida have long ago replied
Mississippi and Louisiana are anxious for the ride!
[Chorus]
Wait for the wagon, the dissolution wagon!
The South is our wagon, and we'll all take a ride!
Wait for the wagon, the dissolution wagon!
The South is our wagon and we'll all take a ride!
[Verse 5]
North Carolina and Arkansas are slow
They must hurry, or we'll leave them, and then where will they go?
Kentucky, now, and Maryland, they won't make up their minds
So I reckon, after all, we'll have to take them from behind!
[Chorus]
Wait for the wagon, the dissolution wagon!
The South is our wagon, and we'll all take a ride!
Wait for the wagon, the dissolution wagon!
The South is our wagon and we'll all take a ride!
[Verse 6]
Tennessee, Missouri, are eager for the fray
They can whip the Yankee army, boys, "three to one," they say!
And when they get in conflict, with Davis by their side
They'll pitch into the Yankee boys, and then you'll see them slide!
[Chorus]
Wait for the wagon, the dissolution wagon!
The South is our wagon, and we'll all take a ride!
Wait for the wagon, the dissolution wagon!
The South is our wagon and we'll all take a ride!
