Pope And McDowell
Pope and McDowell
Fighting for a town,
Up jumped General Lee
And knocked 'em both down.

The Rain
Rain on the green grass,
And rain on the tree,
And rain on the house top,
But not on me!

Burnside
Burnside, Burnside, whither doth thou wander?
Up stream, down stream, like a crazy gander?

Foweles in the Frith
Foweles in the frith,
The fisses in the flod,
And I mon waxe wod;
Mulch sorwe I walke with
For best of bon and blod.

My Friend Judge Not Me
My friend iudge not me,
Thou seest I iudge not thee:
Betwixt the stirrop and the ground,
Mercy I askt, mercy I found.

The Lover in Winter Plaineth for the Spring
Westron wind, when wilt thou blow
That small rain down can rain?
Christ, that my love were in my arms
And I in my bed again!

Soldiers Who Wish to be a Hero
Soldiers who wish to be a hero
Are practically zero.
But those who wish to be civilians,
Jesus, they run into millions.

Westron Wind, When Wilt Thou Blow?
Westron wind, when wilt thou blow
That small rain down can rain?
Christ, that my love were in my arms,
And I in my bed again!

Promise
There is a rainbow in the sky,
Upon the arch where tempests trod;
God wrote it ere the world was dry--
It is the autograph of God.

Poor Johnnie Pope
Poor Johnnie Pope
Has lost his coat,
But let him never mind it;
When he comes down
To Richmond town,
There he'll be sure to find it.
