I left my love, my love
I left a sleep-in' in her bed
I turned my back on my true love
When fight-in' John-ny Reb
I left my love a let-ter
In the hol-lar of a tree
I told her she would find me in
The U S Ca-val-ry
Hi-Yo! Down they go
There's no such word as can't.
We're rid-ing down to hell and back
For U-lys-ses Simp-son Grant
Hi-Yo! Down they go
There's no such word as can't.
We're riding down to hell and back
For Ulysses Simpson Grant.
I left my love, my love
I left a sleepin' in her bed.
I turned my back on my true love
When fightin' Johnny Reb.
I left my love a letter I
In the hollar of a tree.
I told her she would find me
In the US Cavalry, in the US Cavalry.
Hi-Yo! Down they go
There's no such word as can't.
We're riding down to hell and back
For Ulysses Simpson Grant.
