FRANKIE I go to fight for these old hills behind me, The old red hills of home. I go to fight for these hills that remind me Of a way of life that's pure, Of the truth that will endure In the city of Atlanta, In the old red hills of home!
ENSEMBLE God bless the sight of the old hills of Georgia, The old red hills of home. Praise those who'd fight for the old hills of Georgia For those proud and valiant men, We'll sing "Dixie" once again For the men of Marietta: For the brothers of Cobb County: For the fathers of Atlanta: For the patriarchs: Who gave ev'rything for Georgia And the old red hills of home!
