Goodbye Reb, You’All Come

[Verse 1]
General Grant and General Lee
Met beneath the apple tree
The war is over, yessiree
All of us fightin' men are free

[Chorus]
Goodbye Reb, you'all come
Goodbye Reb, you'all come
Goodbye Reb, you'all come
We'll have a cake and a bottle of rum

[Verse 2: Yank]
I've got a sweet thing in New York
I've got a sweet thing in New York
I've got a sweet thing in New York
I'm gonna tell her about the stork

[Verse 3: Reb]
Well, I've got a wife in New Orleans
I've got a wifе in New Orleans
I've got a wifе in New Orleans
I want some of her turnip greens

[Chorus]
Goodbye Reb, you'all come
Goodbye Reb, you'all come
Goodbye Reb, you'all come
We'll have a cake and a bottle of rum

[Verse 4: Reb]
Sister's set to bring her Yank
Sister's set to bring her Yank
Sister's set to bring her Yank
Her corn cellar ain't got no crane

[Verse 5: Yank]
Bring your sister to Ohio
Bring your sister to Ohio
Bring your sister to Ohio
My grandfather will be her beau

[Chorus]
Goodbye Reb, you'all come
Goodbye Reb, you'all come

[Verse 6]
Ain't a-gonna play war no more
Ain't a-gonna play war no more
Ain't a-gonna play war no more
I lost my hat and my pants got tore

[Verse 7]
I'm so glad this war is done
I'm so glad this war is done
I'm so glad this war is done
Let's go home and have some fun

[Chorus]
Goodbye Reb, you'all come
Goodbye Reb, you'all come

We'll have a cake and a bottle of rum

[Chorus]
Goodbye Reb, you'all come
