Subject: RE: Unreconstructed rebel
To specifically address the question of what lines are missing from Frank Warner's version, according to my memory his verse starts:
Three hundred thousand Yankees a stiff in Southern dust; We got three hundred thousand a-fore they conquored us; They died of Southern fever and Southern steel and shot, And I wish we'd got three million instead of what we got!
