The Kentucky Volunteer
Adieu, Philadelphia, /
Dear Jenny adieu
Believe not I'm false /
In thus parting from you
Tis honor compels /
For the sake of my dear
To Kentucky I go /
As a bold volunteer

Then grieve not dear Jenny /
Tho Tomahawks fly
They'll never wound this breast /
Like a tear from thine eye
No danger so dreadful
As leaving my dear
Tho I go to Kentucky
A Bold Volunteer
