In union is salvation,
God will protect the right.
My Love he is a Zou-zu.
My love is a Zou-zu so gallant and bold,
He’s rough and he’s handsome, scarce nineteen years old,
To show off in Washington, he has left his own dear,
And my heart is a-breaking because he’s not here.
CHORUS.
For his spirit was brave; it was fierce to behold,
In a young man bred a Zou-zu, only nineteen years old.
