- Away down South in the land of traitors,
- Rattlesnakes and alligators,
- Right away, come away, right away, come away.
- Where cotton's king and men are chattels,
- Union boys will win the battles,
- Right away, come away, right away, come away.
- (Chorus)
- Then we'll all go down to Dixie,
- Away, away,
- Each Dixie boy must understand
- That he must mind his Uncle Sam,
- Away, away,
- And we'll all go down to Dixie.
- Away, away,
- And we'll all go down to Dixie.
- I wish I was in Baltimore,
- I'd make Secession traitors roar,
- Right away, come away, right away, come away.
- We'll put the traitors all to rout.
- I'll bet my boots we'll whip them out,
- Right away, come away, right away, come away.
- (Chorus)
- Oh, may our Stars and Stripes still wave
- Forever o'er the free and brave,
- Right away, come away, right away, come away.
- And let our motto ever be --
- For Union and for Liberty!"
- Right away, come away, right away, come away.
- (Chorus)
