Here is "A" version by Stonewall Jackson.


UNCLE SAM AND BIG JOHN BULL Recorded by Stonewall Jackson

CHORUS: Oh, They ain't a-gonna fight, they ain't a-gonna fight
They ain't a-gonna fight no more
Uncle Sam and Big John Bull
They ain't a-gonna fight no more.

First time that they ever fought was over a load of tea
John said Sam if you drink that stuff, you gotta pay a tax to me
Sam said John, you're a little bit high, it seems unfair to me
So he sent some boys out late one night and they dumped it in the sea.

John said Sam that who's that ol' skinny boy from Tennessee
You sent him down to New Orleans and he beat the pants off me
Still I believe with all my might, I could have turned the tide
If that ol' pirate, Jean Lafitte, was fightin' on my side.

Since they've been standin' back to back, they've done quite well, it's true
They've whipped the Kaiser and the Fuerher, just to name a few
That's why we stand in vict'ry land, the skies above are blue
Uncle Sam and Big John Bull, our hats are off to you.
