I Can Whip The Scoundrel

The yankees came to Baldwin

they came upon the rear

They thought they'd find old Abner but old Abner was not there

So lay 10 dollars down

or 20 if you choose

For I can whip the yankee

that stole old Abner's shoes

Jeff Davis was a gentleman

Jeff Davis was no fool

Jeff Davis rode a dapple gray

And Abe Lincoln rode a mule

So lay 10 dollars down

or 20 if you choose

For I can take the hide off the yankee

that stole old Abner's shoes

The yankees took me prisoner

they used me rough it's true

They took from me my knapsack and they stole bys blanket too

So lay 10 dollars down

or 20 if you choose

For I can whip the scoundrel

that stole old Abner's shoes

The yankees took me prisoner

and if I get parole

I'll go right back and fight them

I will upon my soul

Then lay 10 dollars down

or 20 if you choose

For I can whip the yankee

that stole old Abner's shoes

For I can whip the yankee

that stole old Abner's shoes
