NEVER FORGOTTEN
Brothers in Dixie
Among us, there is a code.
We are those who will not waver;
And who will never surrender.
Who will cover the backs of comrades;
And will leave none behind alone;
With a patriotism as only has been known by the Confederacy;
Who will regard the needs of the many over the needs of the self;
Who will be selfless in conduct, exemplary in courage;
Who will be of steadfast character, never compromising principle.
Death is preferred to be faced
Than the boot of oppressive despots.
We are the brothers in Dixie
