The Southern Soldier Boy

Lyrics

Bob Roebuck is my sweetheart's name
 He's off to the wars and gone
 He's fighting for his Nannie dear
 His sword is buckled on
 He's fighting for his own true love
 His foes he does defy
 He is the darling of my heart
 My Southern soldier boy
 Oh if in battle he was slain
 I'm sure that I should diebut I'm sure he'll come again
 And cheer my weeping eye
 But should he fall In this our glorious cause
 He still would be my joy For many a sweetheart mourns the loss
 Of a Southern soldier boy
 I hope for the best
 And so do all
 Whose hopes are in the field
 I know that we shall win the day
 For Southerns never yield
 And when we thing Of those who are away
 We'll look above for joy
 And I'm mighty glad
 That my Bobby is A Southern soldier boy
