- The background tune is the music to the following song, "Rebel in the Woods", written by a anonymous Confederate Guerilla in North Missouri to his friend condemned to die in a St. Louis prison. The song was found from a St. Louis newspaper clipping dating back to around 1863. The phrase "my jacket so bleue" may appear that the writer was a Union soldier, but this is not the case since in Missouri, rebels frequently wore the clothes removed from their victims.
I’m a Brit but I cry for the sadness of that awful conflict in the greatest country the world will ever see.
This^^^^. From a Scots -Irish southerner as well….
@@michaelbarnett2527 Whatever does this mean?
@@johnktwitchen What does what mean ? Im agreeing with what southern storm said.
Oi me too bruv
@Southern Storm My G Grandfather fought for the Union. His dad was a Baptist preacher. My Grandmother was from Tennessee and together they gave birth to my father in Arkansas and later moved.to Missouri
I was born in California.
I also admire the freedom that came through the British struggle over the centuries.
I especially admire the man who saved western civilization , Winston Churchill.
I also think the assault of communists and thier sympathizers who want to rob US of our rights given to us by God must be resisted by using all we have to oppose and triumph over all enemies of freedom
Amen and Amen and thanks to God for victory in the name of Jesus Christ The Lord
The most poignant Civil War song I've heard. Lyrics and tune are masterfully composed to convey longing, sorrow and fear. Contrasting the scenes of springtime with the speaker's precarious survival -- so effective! My paternal grandmother (from Missouri) was the daughter of a Confederate soldier. In these uncertain times, this thought gives me great encouragement.
Head up high! Yours is a good and great ancestry!
As a Brit I admit to having a Confederate flag badge on the back of my Chrysler 300. It's not really a political statement, but more of a signal of being a rebel!
As long as I used to reenact and study the War Between the States, after 50 years of being a Rebel, I have never heard this before and it is wonderful ☺️
It’s like we learn a new Rebel song all the time.
Jack Murphy Can’t complain 😉
@@michaelduryea148 No you cant
Quote from "Ride with the Devil". There are armies in the East, in Missouri you only have the people to fight you.
Such a great tune ...god bless the south, protect herigage and history of great dixie....regards and best wishes from Argentina ....
RIP Pvt Christopher Hussey, Co. B 'Virginia Hibernians', 27th Virginia Infantry. died 14th June 1863, near Winchester. (My great grand uncle)
Proud you should be to be decended from a brave Warrior, respect brother, from an English decendant of Warriors, love to Dixie.
The Southern Historian brought me here. Thanks.
RIP Cathy, you and Dave sang this beautifully.
In memory of my Paternal Great Great Grandfather, John W. McCall; John W. McCall enlisted as a private with Company H, 10th Georgia Infantry Regiment, Wilcox County Rifles, on 20 May, 1861. He was promoted to 4th Corporal on 15 June, 1861 and to First Lieutenant on 2 December, 1864. John W. McCall saw action in the following engagements: Seven Days Battle; Gettysburg; The Wilderness; Spotsylvania Court House; and the Shenandoah Valley Campaign. He died of Tuberculosis in 1869 at age 31as a result of the war. He left a grieving widow and infant son. Rebel blood runs deep in my veins; however, I am a proud American. G.M., BT3, USN; HSC, USCG, (Ret.)

man, damn it, how comes I see you EVERYWHERE I look in the comments LOL
Shear poetry. God bless The South.
Apart from their Racism...
Sheer.
As a native of Kansas City, I love the Rebel in the Woods album by Barton, Para, Dyer. Thanks for the reproduction.
Amen... Clay County, MO! Rebel country!
@@chuckHart70 The forgotten front.
@@dasbubba841 i think Oklahoma vs Kansas is less known.
@@gabrieleberle4422 Indeed. Most people also forget the Native American contribution to the Confederates. Many natives, such as the Cherokee, owned slaves.
Standhope Watie was the Cherokee chief and a general in the Confederate army.
My hunting dog adores this song. He started licking my hands and lay in my lap.
God Bless USA(both South and North)
Hear, hear to that. Always, please, remember that there is much love for the US and its wonderful people across the ocean in the UK.
@@johnktwitchen Likewise, brother! 🍻
Stand with Robert E. Lee and Jeff Davis! Let's go Brandon!
The south will rise again!
@@2007bing Absolutely!!!

@@MrT8T3R Thank god for reservations, eh?
History is written by the victor. There was so much that was admirable about the South, but it may not be related, and the brave, fine men like General Lee cannot be revered.
@@MrT8T3R Does that count for the north, too?
@@johnktwitchenthe victor named tanks years later after Lee Jackson and Stuart. The victor very much showed respect to their defeated brothers. Leave divisiveness to the media imo. Rise above
Saddens me that the missourian government couldnt pull their shit together and secede but we did our part. Down with the federals!
Parts of this song remind me of the song “ Sweet Sunny South “.
What a beautifull song. I didn't know about Barton Para. I'm so sad to know that Cathy Barton Para has passed away❤️🌷
I know it is
Oh, I did not know this. Thanks !!!
I saw her and Dave in concert in Independence at the Courthouse Exchange in 93 !!!
Dave Para and Kathy Barton preform this master piece from the album Rebel in the Woods.
My ancestors fought in the Irish brigade
sláinte mhaith!
Very good song
A beautiful song
For any who want the chords to this, this is the best approximation I could come up with. More than open to any corrections if anyone has a better ear. Also, for those curious, it's a modified version of the tune "Home Dearie Home" by Ed Trickett, so you can use that as a reference if you want. I couldn't find the chords for the life of me, though.
Verse:
D A7
The winter is gone and the spring has come once more.
G D A7
The rebels rejoice that the winter is no more,
D G D A7
For now it is spring and the leaves are growing green,
D G A7 D
And the rebels rejoice that they cannot be seen.
Chorus:
D A7 G A7
Then home, soon home, home they will be;
G D A7
Home, dearest home, in this our country,
D G D A7
Where the rose is in bud and the blossom's on the tree,
D G A7 D
And the Lark is singing home to North Missouri.
war is a horrible thing it becomes a tragedy when its brother fighting brother
Sometimes a civiI war is necessary so that it separates wheat from the tares in a certain nation. One is so badly needed in my country, too many traitors per one square foot, too much immoraIity, too much injustice, so in order for my country to be cIean a civiI war would almost be a bIessing. I know how crazy it sounds, but it's true. Your brother is not always your brother, know what I mean?
I do videos from this CD and so glad to see that you have done this one and will be happy to share it to my ST. JOSEPH, MO CIVIL WAR YEARS research group

I just moved from St Joseph to Milan Missouri
The winter is gone and the spring has come once more.
The rebels rejoice that the winter is no more,
For now it is spring and the leaves are growing green,
And the rebels rejoice that they cannot be seen.
Chorus:
Then home, soon home, home they will be;
Home, dearest home, in this our country,
Where the rose is in bud and the blossom’s on the tree,
And the Lark is singing home to North Missouri.
We have taken up arms in defense of our farms,
And if the Federals trouble us we’ll surely do them harm,
For we have declared that our land shall be free;
But if they stay away how quiet we will be.
Chorus
The rebels from their homes are compelled to go;
And stay in the woods in the bushes thick and low,
For if they go home and there attempt to stay
The Federals will come and force them away.
Chorus
Away from their sweethearts they have to stay;
And lay in the woods by night and by day,
For if by the Federals they should captured be;
They will be carried to the penitentiary.
Chorus
Now my song is almost ended, and since it is so,
Back to the wars with all speed I must go.
With my gun in my hand and my jacket all so blueu,
Farewell, my dear friends, I must bid you adieu.
Chorus
When the war is over I will return to thee,
And we will get married if we can agree,
And when we are joined in wedlock’s happy band,
Then we never more will take the parting hand.
Chorus
Missouri's fight against the Northern invaders.
Dixie forewer ❤

Lyrics?
Horatio Nelson Lyrics To: Rebel in the Woods
The winter is gone and the spring has come once more. The rebels rejoice that the winter is no more, For now it is spring and the leaves are growing green, And the rebels rejoice that they cannot be seen.
Then home, soon home, home they will be; Home, dearest home, in this our country, Where the rose is in bud and the blossom’s on the tree, And the Lark is singing home to North Missouri.
We have taken up arms in defense of our farms, And if the Federals trouble us we’ll surely do them harm, For we have declared that our land shall be free But if they stay away how quiet we will be.
Then home, soon home, home we will be… The rebels from their homes are compelled to go And stay in the woods in the bushes thick and low, For if they go home and there attempt to stay The Federals will come and force them away.
Then away from their homes, away they will be… Away from their sweethearts they have to stay And lay in the woods by night and by day, For if by the Federals they should captured be They will be carried to the penitentiary.
Then away from their homes, away they will be… Now my song is almost ended, and since it is so, Back to the wars with all speed I must go. With my gun in my hand and my jacket all so blueu Farewell, my dear friends, I must bid you adieu. Then away from my home, away I will be…
When the war is over I will return to thee, And we will get married if we can agree, And when we are joined in wedlock’s happy band, Then we never more will take the parting hand. And at home, soon home, home we will be…

Who sang this version of this song
It was sung by a Missourian civil war band group: bartonpara.com/bp/
Cathy Barton
Her voice looks like Joan Baez's one, @@johnlaw4354
That's me, i'm in the Woods.
Civil war 2.0
😅
It’s time for us trumpies to head out to the woods
yes.
My thoughts exactly.
I hope Yall wouldnt take up arms over that loud mouth manchild Yankee. He isnt for you. You see how he turned his back on the folks he got to storm the capitol? Dont get me wrong Biden is a babbling retard but Trump is no better.
Lmao yeah cause nothing says "rebel" like laying down your life for a yankee corporate shill.
