| Info: The "Battle Cry of Freedom", also known as "Rally 'Round the Flag", is a song written in 1862 by American composer George Frederick Root (1820–1895) during the American Civil War. A patriotic song advocating the causes of Unionism and abolitionism, it became so popular that composer H. L. Schreiner and lyricist W. H. Barnes adapted it for the Confederacy. Lyrics Yes, we'll rally 'round the flag, boys We'll rally 'round again Shouting the battle cry of freedom We will rally from the hillside We'll gather from the plain Shouting the battle cry of freedom The union forever, hurrah boys, hurrah Down with the traitor, up with the star While we rally 'round the flag, boys Rally once again Shouting the battle cry of freedom We will welcome to our numbers The loyal, true and brave Shouting the battle cry of freedom And although he may be poor Not a man shall be a slave Shouting the battle cry of freedom So we're springing to the call From the east and from the west Shouting the battle cry of freedom And we'll prove a loyal crew To the land we love the best Shouting the battle cry of freedom | |
