The Good Old Rebel ...

O, I am a good old rebel, now that just what I am,
  , , ,
For this fair land of freedom I do not care a damn,
, ( ),
I'm glad I fought against I only wished we'd won,
[] ,
And I don't want a pardon for anything I've done.
[] ...
 
I hate the constitution, this great republic too,
, ,
I hate the Freedman's Bureau in uniforms so blue,
, ,
I hate the nasty eagle with all the brag and fuss,
,
[And] the lying, thieving Yankees, I hate 'em wuss and wuss.
, , .
 
I hate this Yankee nation, And everything they've do,
, ,
I hate the Declaration, Of Independence too,
, ,
I hate the glorious Union, 'Tis dripping with our blood,
, ,
[And] I hate the striped banner, And fit it all I could...
, ...
 
I followed old Marse Robert for four year near about,
,
Got wounded in three place and starved at Point Lookout*,
,
I caught the rheumatism a-campin' in the snow,
,
But I caught a chance of Yankees, I like to kill some more.
  , .
 
Three hundred thousand Yankees lie stiff in Southern dust.
.
We got three hundred thousand before they conquered us,
,
They died of Southern fever, and Southern steel and shot,
, ,
[And] I wish it was three million instead of what we got.
.
 
I can't take up my musket and fight 'em now no more,
  ,
But I ain't goin' to love 'em now that's certain sure,
,
And I don't want no pardon for what I was and am,
,
[And] I won't be reconstructed and  I don't care a damn. [I don't give a damn.]
  .

Composer: I. Randolph

Notes

Played by an unnamed bluegrass band with Garcia on banjo at an unknown venue in Burlingame in January 1962.

Words by Major Innes Randolph. The source of the tune is unknown. Possibly written at the end of the 19th century. It was published with a connected article in Collier's Weekly on the 4th April 1914. The song possibly also occurs as The Unreconstructed Rebel and The Song of the Rebel Soldier. Maybe also the same song as I Don't Want A Pardon.

 On circulating tapes of the Burlingame show the song is often listed as I'm A Rebel but this is not the correct title. The song is introduced apologetically at the Burlingame show with the assurance that it does not express their own opinions - the lyrics explain why.
