United States -- History -- Civil War, 1861-1865 -- Songs and music -- Confederate States
Alas! the rolling hours pass slow, 133
A life on the Vicksburg bluff, 126
All quiet along the Potomac to-night, 62
A nation has sprung into life, 12
Arise! Arise! with main and might, 51
Arise! Ye sons of freeborn sires, arise! your country save, 175
As a couple of good soldiers were walking one day, 318
A soldier boy from Texas lay gasping on the field, 266
At Bull Run, when the sun was low, 38
A warrior has fallen! a chieftain has gone, 194
Away down South in de fields of cotton, 36
Bob Roebuck is my sweetheart's name, 69
Bravely ye've fought, my gallant, gallant men, 241
By blue Patapsco's billowy dash, 273
By the cross upon our banner--glory of our Southern sky, 142
Can'st tell who lose the battle oft in the council field, 130
Cheer, boys, cheer! we'll march away to battle, 244
Childhood's days have long since faded, 306
Come, all ye sons of freedom, 252
Come all ye temper'd hearts of steel--come, quit your flocks and farms,
174
Come, all ye valiant soldiers, and a story I will tell, 326
Come, brothers! rally for the right, 40
Come! come! come, 61
Come, stack arms, men! pile on the rails, 200
Countrymen of Washington, 35
Darkies, has you seed my massa, 216
Dear mother, I remember well, 349
Do they miss me in the trenches, do they miss me, 129
Down by the valley, 'mid thunder and lightning, 228
Ever constant, ever true, 221
Fair ladies and maids of all ages, 322
Fearlessly the seas we roam, 227
Fighting for our rights now, feasting when they're won, 131
Flag of the Southland! Flag of the free, 198
Fold away all your bright tinted dresses, 116
Fold it up carefully, lay it aside, 358
Forth from its scabbard pure and bright, 367
For sixty days and upward a storm of shell and shot, 343
For trumpet and drum, leave the soft voice of maiden, 317
From Houston City and Brazos bottom, 143
Furl that banner, for 'tis weary, 373
Gallant nation, foiled by numbers, 375
God bless our Southern land, 188
God save the South, 1
Halt! the march is over, 59
Hark! the clock strikes! All, all that now remains, 160
Hark! the tocsin is sounding, my comrades, 324
Hark! 'tis the shrill trumpet calling, 289
Haste thee, falter not, noble patriot band, 149
Have you counted up the cost, 240
Hear the summons, sons of Texas, 178
Hear ye not the sound of battle, 166
He fell and they cried, bring us home our dead!, 212
Ho, gallants, brim the beaker bowl, 281
Hurrah! for the Southern confederate State, 39
Hurrah for the South, the glorious South! the land of song and story, 114
Huzza! huzza! let's raise the battle-cry, 122
I am dreaming of thee, 297
I cannot listen to your words, the land is long and wide, 363
I come from old Manassas, with a pocket full of fun, 66
If ever I consent to be married, 99
I leave my home, and thee, dear, with sorrow at my heart, 347
I'll sing you a song of the South's sunny clime, 78
I'm a soldier, you see, that oppression has made, 104
I'm gwine back to de land of cotton, 145
