Avenge McDowell, and take bull run
Stop Lee and trap Stonewall, leaving no retreat.
Pope failed the modest task that was his charge
Three bloody days that pushed back the union cause
This is the home of heroes, and democratic ideals
Where dogwoods are born through blood-soaked fields
Assuming retreat by Jackson, and the fall of the CSA
Pope proved his military prowess was that of a common clod.
Jackson dealt verbal lashings, while Longstreet saved the day
The war horse joined with Stonewall, and 25,000 men, Pope's army met its end.
This is the home of heroes, and democratic ideals,
Where dogwoods are born through blood-soaked fields
Hidden by the veil of darkness, but not from history's eyes
The cowardly retreat of union troops, was the only plan surmised.
Manassas was condemned to suffer, for three grizzly days.
It was now Lincoln's turn to end this war and free the slaves.
