Jeff Davis rides a gray horse; Lincoln rides a mule. Jeff Davis, he's a President, And poor Lincoln, he's a fool. Won't you volunteer and go? Jeff Davis had a flag With the colors hoisted high. And if he don't defend it, Old Lincoln needs to try. Won't you volunteer and go? (Mr. Gilbert: "That's all I know of it.") Also found in Brown, Vol. III, #387, "Jeff Davis Rode a White Horse." |
