1
Back in 1864
2
On a cold November's morn
3
The burning of Atlanta
4
Was a sad and a dreary one
5
For Sherman came a marching
6
With a hundred thousand men
7
And through the smoke
8
Through the flames
9
Over the cannon's roar
10
[Chorus:]
11
You could hear them rebels call
12
We ain't scared of y'all
13
We don't care what the Yankees say
14
The South's gonna rise again
15
We're tough as nails
16
And you better turn tails
17
And head back where they've been
18
They took our beans
19
And a fat back pony
20
We've still got our Confederate money
21
We don't care what the Yankees say
22
The South's gonna rise again
23
Johnny Reb's now in retreat
24
But fighting till the end
25
With nothing left but the burning past
26
It's gone with the wind
27
For Sherman gave the order
28
Burn Atlanta to the ground
29
And through the smoke
30
Through the flames
31
Over the cannon's roar
32
[Repeat chorus]
33
The war between the North and South
34
Is just a memory
35
The burning of Atlanta
36
Has gone down as history
37
But let us turn the pages back
38
To the time of yesteryear
39
When through the smoke
40
Through the flames
41
Over the cannon's roar
42
[Repeat chorus]
