Colonel Lou - Johnny Rebel
G
Johnny Reb was from the Southland
D G
Where the cotton grows so tall
C G
And at the age of seventeen
D G
He heard his country's call.
He kissed his poor old mother,
D G
He told his dad good bye.
C G
He checked his trusty rifle
D G
And he kept his powder dry.
G
Johnny Reb, Johnny Reb,
C G
why did you have to go?
Johnny Reb, Johnny Reb,
D G
Aw we miss you so!

G
They sent him off to Georgia
D G
To join the boys in grey.
C G
He fought his only battle
D G
On a cold and rainy day.
He cocked his gun and wet his sights,
D G
Then he looked around
C G
And every Yank that showed himself,
D G
He quickly brought him down.
G
Johnny Reb, Johnny Reb,
C G
why did you have to go?
Johnny Reb, Johnny Reb,
D G
Aw we miss you so!

G
When the fighting stopped they found him,
D G
He was barely alive.
C G
But the Union troops that he brought down,
D G
They counted forty-five.
They found him lying in a ditch
D G
when he breathed his last goodbye,
C G D G
"My heart for our old Southland boys and keep our flag hold high!"
G
Johnny Reb, Johnny Reb,
C G
why did you have to go?
Johnny Reb, Johnny Reb,
D G
Aw we miss you so!
G
Johnny Reb, Johnny Reb,
C G
why did you have to go?
Johnny Reb, Johnny Reb,
D G
Aw we miss you so!
