Carrie Bell Sinclair,
The Southern Girl with the Home-Spun Dress
(186–)
“ But then it shows what Southern girls for Southern rights will do. We’ve sent the bravest of our land to battle with the foe; And we would lend a helping hand—we love the South you know. Chorus—Hurrah! hurrah! etc. The Southern land’s a glorious land, and hers a glorious cause— Then here’s three cheers for Southern rights and our Southern boys. We’ve sent our sweethearts to the wars, but dear girls never mind; Your soldier love will not forget the girl he left behind. Chorus—Hurrah! hurrah! etc. A soldier lad is the lad for me, a brave heart I adore ”
