!862 Parody to "I Lived"

Here are the lyrics to the parody
Hope when the feds win war you give back the slaves
Hope when you get the draft you hate and rave 
Hope when you meet your prez you thinks he’s trash 
Hope when you meet the blacks you think there rash 

Hope when you see the gore your disgust grows 
The only way war is fought is with flesh and bone
And I hope you fight Stonewall but you run and hide
Hope since we won Bull Run you’ll say 

Feds, Feds, Feds, Feds won the fight
Feds, Feds, Feds, Feds won the fight 
The Union fought hard and valiantly 
But feds just won that’s the reality 
Ya with every setback oh I swear feds won

Hope that you lose morale and you all give up 
And then we won Antietam and McClellan is done
And though you think you won you technically lost 
But when we kill more ur men I’ll say

Feds, Feds, Feds, Feds won the fight 
Feds, Feds, Feds, Feds won the fight 
The Union fought hard and valiantly 
But feds just won that’s the reality 
Ya with every setback oh I swear Feds  won

Authors note***- Please excuse the date in the video of the parody. I said 1863 when this blog is the 1862 blog post! Thanks!

Popular Songs for the Feds

Top Three Songs for CSA 1. "Dixie" This song was important to the Feds because it was the anthem they would play during all of the attacks that the Feds led. Even though it was written by a Daniel Emmett, an abolitionist, for mockery at slaves for entertainment the South felt it greatly resembled their identity. It was the unofficial anthem of the Confederacy and the tune was catchy enough to be one of Abe Lincoln's favorite songs.   Here is a video of the song- https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5OKdbc0DYpM 2. "The Bonnie Blue Flag" This song was important to the Feds because it kept up morale. It was another unofficial anthem that was one of the most popular in the South second only to "Dixie". "The Bonnie Blue Flag" was written by Henry McCarthy and was to the tune of "The Irish Jaunting Car". People felt connected to it and the song was instantly wanted all over the South.  Here is a video of the song- https://ww

A Nation Divided Poem

A nation divided A view from a discouraged rebel Dawn breaks the morning skies Creeping along bloody lane The world mocks us with these mornings filled with beauty, These precious moments in the midst of chaos and gore Another battle is fought Another man down In the end is it worth it? Only time will tell Because that number, that thousands of casualties From only one battle keeps climbing I guess we we are all crazy in the end To kill others over pride and a sickening sense of justice As if we know what human life is worth It only ends in death and destruction Were the slaves really worth fighting for? I will fight for my way of life but after Pickett's charge at Gettysburg again I ask Is it worth it? When we prove our loyalty we lose our conscience When we are attacked by all 75,000 and still no side lets up Is it worth it? Sherman’s march will be the end to all our soldiers wearing red They now wear grey the color of death
