Charlestown Town Lyrics

Don't cry, don't cry
Don't cry, Liza Jane
Ooooh, goodbye, goodbye
Ooooh, goodbye Liza Jane.

Charlestown town is burnin' down
Goodbye, goodbye
Cotton balls are turnin' brown,
Goodbye Liza Jane
Charlestown town is burnin' down

Goodbye, goodbye
Cotton balls are turnin' brown,
Goodbye Liza Jane

I'm gonna get my musket
Don't cry, don't cry
I'm gonna get my musket
Goodbye Liza Jane
Where will I be in the mornin'?
Don't cry, don't cry
Where will I be in the mornin'?
Goodbye Liza Jane

Charlestown town is burnin' down
Goodbye, goodbye
Cotton balls are turnin' brown,
Goodbye Liza Jane
Charlestown town is burnin' down
Goodbye, goodbye
Cotton balls are turnin' brown,
Goodbye Liza Jane

Don't cry, don't cry
Don't cry, Liza Jane
Ooooh, goodbye, goodbye
Ooooh, goodbye Liza Jane.

Who's gonna save Atlanta?
Don't cry, don't cry
Who's gonna save Atlanta?
Goodbye Liza Jane
Oh, I'm gonna ride with Beauregard
Don't cry, don't cry
I'm gonna ride with Beauregard
Goodbye Liza Jane
Well, I'm gonna be with General Lee
Don't cry, don't cry
Fancy me with Robert E. Lee!
Goodbye, Liza Jane

When will I kiss your lips again?
Don't cry, don't cry
Will I ever kiss your lips again?
Goodbye Liza Jane
I'm gonna get my musket
Don't cry, don't cry
I'm gonna get my musket
Goodbye Liza Jane
Where will you be, my darlin'?
Don't cry, don't cry
Where will you be, my lover?
Goodbye Liza Jane

Charlestown town is burnin' down
Goodbye, goodbye
Cotton balls are turnin' brown,
Goodbye Liza Jane
Charlestown town is burnin' down
Goodbye, goodbye
Cotton balls are turnin' brown,
