Lyrics:

Well, I wrote this song for the Union troops

I wanna teach them the union truth

If you wanna reach those union soldiers

Then you gotta do a rap to a hip hop beat

So I gave them a lesson on the war

My lesson was about 1864

My union troops keep getting bigger

That's cause Ulysses S. Grant is our commander

He’s a life changer, mounted horse ranger

Would take command of an army later

Sips a lot of wine, he’s a drink exchanger

Lincoln was reelected for the win

I only speak the truth

and McClellan acts like a kid

He never even had any big wins

All the other generals didn’t do so well

And Spotsylvania was burning like hell

Now i'm gonna pass the mic to Mr. Tim

He was a great soldier and one of my friends

So to tell a story of truth, without further ado take it away my dude.

Ulysses S. Grant is my commander

He’s the son of a tanner

McClellan lost to Lincoln in an election with a banner

Sherman’s March was successful

And boy was it stressful

Infiltrating towns and tearing down

Atlanta was never the same but soon will come lee's take down

Ulysses S. Grant is my commander

Let his skills teach to ya

he’ll cap you in the butt in Shenandoah valley

Ulysses S. Grant is our commander

He’s a homie you see

He’s an honest, caring, peace loving commander like me.
