Goodbye Susannah by Raun Burnham Lyrics

The banger boys have said goodbye, their wearing their marching suits
We can hear their little sweet hearts sigh, with the tattoo of their boots
Old Billy Sherman's got his eye, on dear old Gerorgia it seems
Unfurl them flags and watch em fly, we'll be seeing you in our dreams

Goodbye Susannah, I am Savannah bound
I hope that where I fight tonight, I'll be standing on solid ground

We're much too young to be buried arm, this is what this war has done
Pulling boys away from potato farms, trading pitchforks in for guns
So it's one-two one-two hey there you, line up and bang the drum
We'll give Jonny Rebel a talking to, all the way to kingdom come

Goodbye Susannah, I am Savannah bound
I hope that where I fight tonight I'll be standing on solid ground
