lyrics

Abram Lincoln? what yer 'bout?
Hurrah! hurrah!
Stop this war: for, it's played out--
Hurrah! hurrah!
Abram Lincoln, what yer 'bout?
Stop this war: it's all played out!
We'll all drink stone blind--
Johnny fill up the bowl.

We're getting anxious, all of us,
Hurrah! hurrah!
We're getting anxious, all of us,
Hurrah, hurrah!
We're getting anxious, all of us,
For you to stop this Southern muss;
Then we'll all drink stone blind--
Johnny, fill up the bowl.
