I am not American at all, I am after all the kind of Yankee that exists once you go beyond the frontiers of New England into Nouvelle France. So not a Yankee at all.
But this is my favourite Civil War Song.

Actually, this is my favourite Civil War Song:
With a whack, rowdy-dow
A hunky boy is General Sherman
Whack, rowdy-dow
Invincible is he!

I also like this one:
So we made a thoroughfare for Freedom and her train!
Sixty miles in latitude, three hundred to the Maine!
Treason fled before us for resistance was in vain!
While we were marching through Georgia!
Hurrah! Hurrah! We bring the jubilee!
Hurrah! Hurrah! The flag that makes you free!
So we sang the chorus from Atlanta to the sea!
While we were marching,
While we were marching,
While we were marching through Georgia!

On the other hand, it's not like the South didn't produce a banger or two. I am like actually ashamed of how much I like I'm a Good OE' Rebel
Wrong side. Wrong cause. Wrong lyrics. But boy do I like the bitterness? Anyhow, fuck every slaver to death.
Hostis humani generis.
I will offset my love of that song with this t-shirt.
