 The Southern Wagon. 
 
 Come all ye sons of Freedom and join our Southern band, 
 We're going to fight the enemy and drive them from our land ; 
 Justice is our motto and Providence our guide. 
 So jump into 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. 
 
 Secession is our watchword, our riglits wc all demand. 
 And to defend our firesides we pledge our heart and hand ; 
 Jeff. Davis is our President, with Stephens by his side — 
 Brave Beauregard our General will join us in the ride. 
 
 Chorus — Wait for the wagon. 
 
 Our wagon's plenty ijpnough, the runing gear it good, 
 
 'Tis stuffed with Cotton round the sides and made of Southern wood ; 
 
 Carolina is the driver, with Georgia by her side, — 
 
 Virginia'll hold our Flag up and we'll all take a ride. 
 
 Chorus — Wait for the wagon. 
 
 There's Tennessee and Texas also in the ring — 
 They would'nt have a government where Cotton was'nt King : 
 Alabama too and Florida have long ago replied — 
 Mississippi's in the wagon and anxious for the ride. 
 
 Chorus — Wait for the wagon. 
 
 Missouri, North Carolina and Arkansas are slow — 
 They must hurry or we'll leave 'cm, and then where would they go? 
 There's Old Kentuck and Maryland each won't make up there minds, 
 So I reckon after all we'll have to take them up behind. 
 
 Chorus — Wait for the wagon. 
 
 Our cause is just and holy, our men are brave and true — 
 To fight for our Confederate flag is all we'll have to do : 
 God bless our noble army, in Him we all confide, 
 So jump into the wagon and we'll all take a ride. 
 
 Chorus — Wait for the wagon , 
 
 The Dissolution wagon, 
 Tho South is our wagon 
 And we'll all take a ride.
