Our flag is proudly floating <br />On the land and on the main, <br />Shout, shout the battle cry of Freedom! <br />Beneath it oft we've conquered, <br />And we'll conquer oft again! <br />Shout, shout the battle cry of Freedom! <br /> <br />CHORUS: Our Dixie forever! <br />She's never at a loss! <br />Down with the eagle <br />And up with the cross! <br />We'll rally 'round the bonny flag, <br />We'll rally once again, <br />Shout, shout the battle cry of Freedom! <br /> <br />Our gallant boys have marched <br />To the rolling of the drums, <br />Shout, shout the battle cry of Freedom! <br />And the leaders in charge cry out, <br />'Come, boys, come!' <br />Shout, shout the battle cry of Freedom!-CHORUS <br /> <br /> <br />They have laid down their lives <br />On the bloody battle field, <br />Shout, shout the battle cry of Freedom! <br />Their motto is resistance - <br />'To tyrants we'll not yield!' <br />Shout, shout the battle cry of Freedom!-CHORUS <br /> <br /> <br />While our boys have responded <br />And to the fields have gone, <br />Shout, shout the battle cry of Freedom! <br />Our noble women also <br />Have aided them at home, <br />Shout, shout the battle cry of Freedom!-CHORUS<br /><br />Anonymous Americas<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/the-battle-cry-of-freedom-southern-version/
