“ 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. ”

“ Look away! Dixie Land. Early manuscript I wish I was in de land ob cotton, Cinnamon seed an sandy bottom, Look away look away, Dixie Land, In Dixie land whar I was born in, Early on one frosty mornin, Look away look away, away Dixie Land, (Chorus) Den I wish I was in Dixie, Horray, Hooray, In Dixie's land, we'll took our stand, To lib an die in Dixie, Away, away, away down south in Dixie, Away, away, away down south in Dixie. Old missus marry Will de Weaber, William was a gay deceaber; Look away look away, away Dixie Land. When he put his arm around'er, He look as fierce as a forty pound'er. ”
