Thread Name: Lyr Req: The Cavaliers of Dixie
Subject: RE: Lyr Req: 'Ye cavaliers of dixie' lyrics
According to The Oxford Book of English Verse and the Univ. Toronto website, Thomas Campbell, 1774-1844 wrote this, pub. 1801. His title was Ye Mariners of England A Naval Ode.
I must get up earlier than Masato, so I thought I would save him some time by posting the lyrics. He will probably come up with more later on.
