Then cheer, boys, raise the joyous shout, For Arkansas and North Carolina now have both gone out; And let another rousing- cheer for Tennessee be given, The Single Star of the Bonnie Blue Flag has grown to be Eleven.
Chorus.

Chorus.—Hurrah! Hurrah! for Southern Rights, Hurrah ! Hurrah! for the Bonnie Blue Flag has gained the Eleventh Star! |

But his bayonet glistened brightly, as the sun lit up the plain; |
