“I wont be reconstructed
I’m better now than then
And for that carpetbagger
I dont give a damn
I’m off for the Frontier
Soon as I can go
I’ll prepare a weapon
And start for Mexico”
Those alternate lyrics really hit hard. Like something out of Firefly but for real
Hoyt Axton version is 👍
As the Great Great Grandson of three Confederate patriots, I salute you for uploading this song. Mississippi Division Sons of Confederate Veterans Sam Davis Camp 596 Biloxi Mississippi.
Thank you for listening, compatriot! Greetings from Raphael Semmes Camp #11
My ancestors served with the 12th North Carolina Rocky Face Rangers Camp 1948 Sons of Confederate Veterans
He had four great grandfathers and eight great great grandfathers@@VanyaTheSlavic
Had 5 great great grandpaws and 6 great great great grandpaws, and a whole slew of uncles that fought in defense of Dixie against Mr. Lincoln's invading hordes. Main units were the 6th Georgia Cavalry, 24th, 52nd, and 65th Georgia Infantries, 25th, 60th, and 62nd(Thomas' Legion) North Carolina Infantries. Deo vindice!
@@jojokrako7818I hope your brother's and children are attending the reenactments in your state on a regular basis. Keeping this hobby going is important because it's real White American Southern Culture and you won't experiance what you will there anywhere else. If your a White Man you should give reenactment a try. Just show every Company brings extra equipment and gear for randoms that you can rent out for the weekend.
I think this is the best version of this song because it's sang with a bit of a "snarl."
Yeah I really like this version. However, Hoyt Axton and 2nd South Carolina String Band renditions are pretty awesome too. There were some fantastic songs from US Civil War on both sides; really good tap your toes and sing along music, not like the modern stuff that assaults the senses and passes for music these days
and Bobby (not Johnny) Horton's may be the best of all.
Have you not heard David Allen Coe's version? A snarl with conviction
mkeogh76 I like Hoyt Axton's the best. We all have our own tastes. Thanks for stopping by, Moppet
I like Hoyt Axton's version best, too. I know all the words, and like to sing it when I'm driving, or hanging out by myself (I don't like to torture others with my singing - not blessed with singing talent, I'm sorry to say!) However, I love War for Southern Independence music, especially that of the 2nd South Carolina String Band - sensational! Wish they'd tour Australia ...
More relevant in 2022 than ever before.

No, I don’t think the country’s gonna break up again. No one wants to fight a war, people are too scared, they don’t want their families getting hurt.

“You have pretty hands. Would you like to keep ‘em?” Funniest scene in a good movie
"I won't be reconstructed. I'm better now than then." That is 19th century "attitude." There's more to that line than most realize. That's GFY and I'm proud to do what I did and I'd do it again if I could... and I was right.
aka Exploited - the freedom they brought to the slaves was simply the freedom to starve - they were no longer housed, clothed or fed. Wage slaves instead of chattel slaves but still slaves
@@hellbillybilly4770 Ex-slaves did not starve anymore than poor people. But, you are correct that legal emancipation came with the Civil rights act and the abolition of the Jim Crow laws in the South.
@@bradfordwilliams5971 Agreed. The blacks that migrated to the North starved. In the South the freed black slaves and the poor white share croppers suffered alike.
We all picked the cotton but never got rich… we weren’t rich but we were doing alright till the yanks went and burnt down my family farm. Majority of it fell into disrepair and got stolen by the banks in the depression time. Now there’s a high end clothing store sitting on top of 300 years of my family and their work…
@@hellbillybilly4770
😂 funny how no black people actually believe this.
A " salute " to Ry Cooder for his musical score in this film.
The last verse, which describes Gen. Jim Shelby's retreat to Mexico, shows how much effort Ry Cooder put into the soundtrack.
Shelby was a popular figure in Missouri and this alternate set of lyrics was likewise well-known in that region, but almost unknown outside of the Kansas-Missouri area. The "popular" version ends as such:
Can't take up my musket
And fight 'em now no more
But I ain't a-goin' to love 'em,
Now this is certain sure!
And I don't want no pardon
For what I was and am,
And I won't be reconstructed,
And I do not give a damn.
@ Martin Smith
Thank You for that!
My kin are all from Georgia and yet I never heard that.
And, what do you know?
I live in northwest Arkansas now.
Thanks for that. I'd always wondered about where that alternate ending came from. I always sort of assumed that it was about the confederate soldiers that left the United States entirely, for Mexico, Nicaragua, Egypt, etc. That makes more sense.
when you say "popular"...lol == what, like a dozen slavers? Screw him, them and anybody who respects scum like the rebs
His name was Joe Shelby.

Oh, I'm a good old rebel
Now that's just what I am
For this fair land of freedom
I do not care a damn
I'm glad I fought against it
I only wish we'd won
And I don't want no pardon
For anything I've done
I hates the Yankee nation
And everything they do
I hates the declaration
Of Independence too
I hates the glorious Union
'Tis dripping with our blood
And I hates their striped banner
I fought it all I could
Three hundred thousand Yankees
Is stiffed in Southern dust
We got three hundred thousand
Before they conquered us
They died of Southern fever
And Southern steel and shot
And I wish it was three million
Instead of what we got
I won't be reconstructed
I'm better now than then new
And for that carpet bagger
I do not give a damn
So I'm off for the frontier
Soon as I can go
I'll prepare a weapon
And start for Mexico
Check out Hoyt Axton's version of this song also. I love his Blind Fiddler also. It shows how the South had a hard time after the war...and is a beautiful song. My best to you, Moppet
MJ Beckert. Maybe that Younger gang boy should have gone ahead and shot him for skipping 2 verses
Those two verses are often left out because "The Freed Man Bureau " was coloreds making us kiss their ass. Also "I hates the Constitution"...because we were forced to ratify the 11, 12 , 13, and 14 Amendment before "allowed back in"...Hell we wanted out and still do. Mississippi did not ratify the Amendment until the mid 1990s because the Yankee nation threatened to cut off ALL FEDERAL FUNDING under that bastard, Clinton.
Hmm...I now recall that 1990s thing in Mississippi. Of course, if it hadn't been that POS, the way things have gone since then, the "New South" GOP would have imposed the same bs on us.
The Union Army won at the cost of what the United States actally stood for .
A brilliant song historic no doubt. It will live on.

@@madlilpony2768 if you don't respect the confederacy you are uneducated on the particular subject and likely have the entire conflict rooted in racism rather than economic tyranny.
300 thousand Yankees
are stiff in Southern dust.
We got 300 thousand,
before they could stop us!
@@c.alexander4622 They died of southern fever, southern steel, and shot.
And I wish it was 3 million -
instead of what we got.
@@Donald_Xavier Yes, but it was the line just before that I learned differently growing up, spending each summer in Georgia.
I knew the line as, " Three hundred thousand Yankees are stiff in Southern dust. We got 300,000 before they could stop us! " No Rebel I've ever known would concede to having been "conquered" by the North. But I grew up in England. So I'm staying out of it!
I regret that I have but one "thumbs up" to give this outstanding song.
Wish I could give it 1000!
Deo Vindice!
So glad you stopped by. I'm not a big league player, so I don't get many thumbs ups. I'm glad for your ONE. Nice to meet ya, Moppet
I'd like to give it 3 million.
Sounds similar to a Nathan Hale quote.
Sic semper tyrannis
Deo Vindice!
By far my favorite version of this song
2nd South Carolina String Band's best imo.
Southern pride today, Southern pride tomorra, Southern pride forever!
I have never understood why you would take pride in being a loser.
The South LOST.
The true motto
Bro Club Penguin lasted long and had a bigger impact on the world than your inbred Confederacy ever, keep coping with that L bozo

This Yankee loves this song. Loved "The Long Riders," too.

Oh make no mistake there were rebels in the north....just don't hear about it much...but there were uprisings in NEW york against the blue belly devils....remember ut was more ABOUT States rights.....
@@massawhitey8174 states rights to what
@@chris.3069 any damn thing not specifically agreed to be prohibited to the states in the Constitution. (see 10th Amendment)
@@massawhitey8174 Bro it was about slaves. The riots you just spoke about were literally New Yorkers being angry about fighting for slaves.
@@SilencedP2P only 4 of the states that seceded mentioned slavery as a reason for doing so, the war was over a mixture of economic interests (the north preferred policies which favored industry and protectionism while the south favored pro agricultural policy and didn’t like tariffs) and the conflicting desire for centralized government and uncentralized government (north wanted the former). Slavery was just one of many aspects of the economic conflict and was not something that the average southerner had anything to do with, to destroy the notion that the war was to free the African I’m simply going to point out that the north had segregation long before the south did (this is where we copied our system from) and the abolitionist movement was only for the most part against slavery because the system brought blacks to the nation. the righteous cause of the union is a complete falsehood and your beloved Lincoln was just as willing to deport the African as he was to utilize them against the south.
Thanks for posting. My family fought for Missouri. Some people say it was about slavery, some say succession, truth is it was about money.
it's always about money
Yeah, sure...just like WW1 was about money....and the Jews. The Confederacy alternative history lovers and the Third Reich have much in common. The Wa-Wa was about the morality of slavery and nothing but. Read the memoirs on both sides.
Tish Mahoney slavery played a part but youre ignorant in thinking it was ONLY slavery.
All the CSA states said they seceded because slavery
+bendsomemetalFord Untrue; There were only 7 seceded States up to April 1861, and those 7 did list "Slavery" as one reason for secession. In VA, NC, TN & AR, the people were against secession and would have remained in the Union. In April 1861, Lincoln issued a call for troops to invade the seceded States to put down the "Rebellion" (Secession is NOT rebellion). The sentiment then totally shifted in VA, NC, TN & AR and the people of those States then voted for secession, as Lincoln was then viewed as a Tyrant. The Civil War is MUCH more complicated than "Slavery".
I can't remember how long that I've refused to be reconstructed.
Its the guy
You do realize it's based off the soldiers who fought that they don't care about glory and or being famous they only care for their rights of freedom and hatred for the Union blue boys who they believe stole their land and rights and wanted to take their people into a new modernized society.
Can't be a Galvanized Yankee
I won’t be reconstructed either lads
i raise a glass of finest western kentucky (where I hail) sippin' whisky aka bourbon 7 years old and 54% minimum to you and that sentiment as there ain't one chance in hell of that ever happening here - It is the duty of a patriot to protect one's self from one's country - Patrick Henry

"So far from engaging in a war to perpetuate slavery, I am rejoiced that Slavery is abolished. I believe it will be greatly for the interest of the South. So fully am I satisfied of this that I would have cheerfully lost all that I have lost by the war, and have suffered all that I have suffered to have this object attained." (Robert E. Lee)
Yet these brain dead illiterate dumb asses tear down his statue.
I did not abolish slavery !!!
I keep coming back to this song because it just has a great tune & lyrics.
The very best perfomance of this song I've ever Heard!!
This Ry Cooder version makes me want to be all Secesh. "And I don't want no pardon for anything I done!"
@jeefgeer1986
How about you eat the entire McDonald's menu
Another excellent arrangement by Ry Cooder.
Love music from this era, and my favorite James movie ever.
There is a better James Gang movie that had Brad Pitt in it. I think it came out almost ten years ago. Very accurate portrayal. "The Assassination of Jesse James by the Coward Robert Ford. Really great cast. The Long Riders was my favorite up until that newer one came out.
@@robertweber567 ...........I loved 'em both but, for purposes of historical accuracy and re-creation, I have to go with "The Assass......Ford". Exceptional film. Brad Pitt was amazing.
@@robertweber567The long riders had so much chemistry with the cast though, seeing as there where 4 sets of brothers playing the james-younger gang.
Always loved this song. Long Riders was my introduction to Ry Cooder, and I've been hooked on his genius ever since. What a talent. And what a heartfelt song of defiance.
@ Katrina, ( 10yrs ago! )
Katrina, have you seen the Buena Vista Social Club?
Ry Cooder had to technically " break the law", to do the music for this film. This stuff was all outlawed (treason) after the Civil War. It became antiquated but remained on the books.
The Buena Vista Social Club is about music in Cuba before communism. It's very good.
"You got real nice hands..they're real pretty" lol
Wanna keep em
@@noahcampbell6387 It was just a request.
Ry Cooder did an incredible job w/this song. This is my favorite version on yt. The song was written by a very educated man, James Innes Randolph.

The south should hate the union... a “union” that’s applied with force isn’t a union it’s occupied land. Proud Ulster nan here love all my Scots Irish cousins
@Cleo Fierro If that's so then why are you patronizing a video dedicated to a Confederate song?
From a proud Southern Scot-Irish man to my Ulster Scot cousins. No Surrender to the IRA scum. I hate those papist scum as much as I hate yankees.
@Cleo Fierro How many dead Yanks lay on the side of the road between Washington and Richmond?
@Cleo Fierro Another victim of the "Noble Cause" Myth. I'll pray for you, my friend.
@Cleo Fierro You do know where the Southerners got the majority of their slaves from, right? It wasn't from Africa, it was from Northern businessmen who sold off their slaves to Southerners when their states abolished slavery. The greatest lie ever told in American history is that the South is to blame for slavery. Get off your high horse.
I just saw this movie--never heard this song before. Now I can’t get it out of my head!
Wish I had the fiddle tabs to this song. Love this version!!!

I enlisted in the us army at seventeen, I fought in Iraq, Serbia, and Somalia. I was 23 years old when I got out. I was a medic. I got out and plied my trade for 14 years, my talents were wasted stateside. I lost my son in 2007 and went bat shit crazy, and re enlisted when I was 37 years old. I did two tours in Iraq and three in Afghanistan. In exchange for my loyalty I have been labeled a mental defective and stripped of my rights. When the second civil war comes, not if, but when, I will not side with the country that made me an, “other”

As a limey who attended high school in the US, I understood the divide between the north and the south when I called a southern boy, raised to be proud of his rebel ancestry, a "yankee". He did not take kindly to that slur, and taught me a valuable lesson about the difference between the people of the two nations.
@@jeffgreer198613
He was a BIG dude, probably held back a year, used to smoke on campus in front of teachers, wore a rebel flag patch on his bag, generally did not give a f*ck and other kids kept their distance. As the British kid, I refused to recognize cliques, and would have the odd bit of banter with this guy from time to time, hence why he started calling me "Limey". He also used to call the biggest black kid the N word and tell him to go pick cotton while laughing, and the black kid wouldn't even dare make eye contact. On the day I called him a yankee (at the time I wasn't aware of just how wide the divide between north and south truly is - being in Florida this distinction gets a little blurred, especially if you're an outsider), he grabbed me by my collar and growled his words at me in a very intimidating low tone. I don't remember his exact words, but he implied he would let me off this time, because I clearly didn't understand what that meant to him, but if I ever called him that again he would essentially end my life in a very painful way. After that we were still cool.
@@videochemist wow... Sorry,sounds like a massive asshole
But yeah nah, dont _ever_ call us yankees. Its just not polite and will never end well
it would be like calling you a Frog or a Paddy.....ie its a grave insult.
@@FLThunderbird1
Not quite the same. The British were the "Yankees" in those instances, as in we came out on top (for the most part). Call a Brit a Paddy or Frog, and he's more likely to do a stereotypical impersonation of an Irish or French person. On the other hand, call an Irish person a Brit, and depending on their level of intoxication, you may end up stabbed. Whereas call a Frenchie a Brit, and he'll simply think of you as a stupid American while not doing anything.

The reason why the south hated the north so much was because what Sherman did
+bendsomemetal Ford did you know that in some places in the South the Fourth of July wasn't celebrated until after WWII?
+Seccesh Reb wow! I didn't know that, thanks for the info
Sometimes you got to accept defeat can't dwell on the past and it sounds like this could be something that happens again let's do right this time
If it does we’ll do it right this time, America will make the right call and 3,000,000 Yankees will be stiff in southern dust. America won’t submit to Yankee rule for a second time.
The song says it all.
It's one thing for a friend to become your enemy, it's another to have your enemy become your friend.
My favorite western.
I like so much this song
I gotta request for ya 'im a Good ole rebel."
You got pretty hands
Jim Baily how would you like to keep ‘em
@@dresnio1363 that’s better
Listening to the lyrics of this song, I'm surprised UA-cam allows it to stay on.... I mean, you know how things are these days....😉
You nutjons trying to prevent the peaceful transfer of power is a drag.

Never a finer song wrote , “ ain’t gonna be reconstructed “ ⚓️
Love the movie and the song! I crank it up when I need to get my blood to pumping! I believe the nation would have been better off in the long run, if the Confedercy had prevailed. We have no states rights anymore
Damn Straight!

God bless for the boys in gray and god bless the CSA
TRUMP 2020 HIS HEART IS WITH THE STARS AND BARS

Topzy Its not only about slavery
Bush did 9/11 yeah but still slavery was still apart of it
@@Bushdid-hx1zc Bush didn't do nothing. Bush cabinet announced that the Military miss placed $2 Trillion on live tv then a couple of days later 9/11 magically happened
Watching the movie now again! For the 100th time on dish tv ! Great movie about James and younger families after the war! Which they probably seen my great great great grandfather in the 8th Ohio cav during Sherman’s march to the sea
Flew my stars n bars for Biden inauguration lol 😂!
The James brothers along with Coleman & Jim Younger were members of Quantrill’s outfit. And, I believe that they didn’t get any further than Kentucky.
Southern forever!!!
Everyone in the south: Blues is the oldest music in America.
Ry Cooder: Hold my fiddle.
Anglo-Celtic folk predates Blues.

Indeed!! Yet nobody will mention that. Because God forbid white people influence any other culture.
My Great Great Great Grandfather didn't surrender. I still fight on even today. I'm right here in Southern Missouri's 0zark Mountains, on the exact piece of ground still flying my Flag high and Proud. I dare anyone to come and try and take it down. I'm waiting for you. The Northern army couldn't stomp my family out, and neither can anybody else.
Keep fighting the good fight, brother.
their on the way soon.
@@teller1290 Having a little trouble with your spellin' again there butt nutt - must be that Yankee schooling - a know it all that doesn't even know he don't know jack shit - Good luck down in SW Missouri and especially the Ozarks - you're gonna need it
From Western KY moved to KC - LOVE the Ozarks and Springfield. Great area great people and lots of happy trails. No thieves or Yankees.
These clueless little assjacks remind me of the scene in Josey Wales and the Missouri boat ride.
What's the difference between a Southern Zoo and a Northern Zoo? Southern Zoo includes a recipe!!! Cheers to ya
hellbilly billy,
I’m from Confederate Arizona. I find it rather strange that in school we were never taught about Confederate Arizona, it was something I learned about by reading about history.
So much injustice after the Civil War that wasn’t taught in school. We all learned about President Lincoln, The Great Emancipator and how he was so set against slavery but at the middle and high school levels we were never told that his great passion was preserving the Union and only that. He stated that if he could keep the Union without abolishing slavery, he would. He also stated that if he could keep the Union by freeing them all, he would, and if he could do it while freeing some and leaving others enslaved, he would do that as well.
Henry Wirz was executed for war crimes in Andersonville,. The POW camp was overpopulated, the water and sanitary conditions were a breeding ground for dysentery, cholera, typhoid, and other diseases . The Union soldiers were extremely malnourished and the Confederacy could no longer feed their own troops and civilians, they were incapable of feeding them properly and providing adequate medical care. It was Grant’s decision to stop all prisoner exchanges, but the Confederate soldiers were treated just as bad or worse by DeLand at Camp Douglas and the Union was capable of feeding and providing better living conditions and medical care. He was never charged for the poor rations of meat or hanging POWs by their thumbs and the many deaths of Confederate soldiers kept there in deplorable conditions, without clothes or shelter from the Illinois winters. There were more POW camps but Douglas and “Hellmira” were well known for its poor treatment of prisoners. I believe it was DeLand that became a POW and claimed that he treated fairly well while being held at the Confederate POW Camp. The north was all about revenge in many cases.
As far as President Lincoln, his beliefs were very much the same as most white males on both sides of the war during that era. He didn’t believe that blacks were equal to whites. He didn’t abolish slavery in the border states that he considered that stayed loyal to the Union, Maryland, Kentucky, and Missouri to name some. Those states were free to keep their slaves. He never considered the slaves to be true Americans and wanted to colonize them to Liberia. He didn’t believe in black suffrage and felt that only black males that fought for the Union should have the right/privilege to vote.
So much wrongs that were done on both sides but after President Lincoln was assassinated it was all about revenge and how to make the south suffer. I find it truly sad that statues of Confederate soldiers are being removed. As George Santayana said, “Those who cannot remember the past are condemned to repeat it”.
Sorry this so long and MyMoppet, please delete if this is inappropriate. I just happen to love American history and Civil War Music.
