The Devil's Daughter

Proud she rode with Bloody Bill's evil band,
The lady Sue Mundy, fair belle of Dixie Land.
Ravenous in beauty with a cold pouty stare,
Tales of her vicious deeds spread everywhere.
Rampaging, killing across Kentucky's green,
On a throne of hate rode this southern queen.
Came the blue bellies riding through,
Around their campfires heard whispers of Sue.
Riding hard, the Union men soon found
Was no easy game to hunt this she-devil down.
Saving one of her wounded men one night,
Company B took Sue down in a terrible fight
In Louisville the verdict was read,
Hang the Rebel woman by the neck 'til dead.
Slipped to her death from the gallows stand,
The South that day lost a good right hand.
The undertaker, her lovely form to prepare,
Stared in horror at Sue's body stretched bare
This corpse, the lady rebel of the Southland,
Sue Mundy, the pride of Dixie was a man.
