@@culturalliberator9425 no it’s to arm you for how these rhyming cycles will play out. If you know history you have a chance to protect you and your loved ones from bad future outcomes. There is little that hasn’t happened already in the past.
@@christopherk140 I agree. But history is not black and white, (Recent history at least) it's a war of virtues, good men killing each other, forced to do so when their ideals clash.
I’m glad to see you guys still appreciate our history by doing these great older songs and still using the rebel flag as a symbol of southern pride, long live the south!
This song even reached England in the days of the 60s folk revival. Some friends and I sang it as a young band in a school folk concert (organised by a visionary music teacher). Pete Seeger was very popular amongst those developing an interest in folk music, so it probably came from his singing. I'm still playing fiddle, and might even have a go at learning the words for old time's sake. Thanks for your lovely version.
Sorry to hear you are retired- but much deserved. I always wanted the chance to see you boys play live but somehow always missed y'all. I hope you realize all the joy you brought to others through sharing the gift of your music- both in person as well as 'virtually'. All the very best to each one of you!
Way back in 1989, when I was 10 years old, my 5th Grade Teacher Mrs. Lakes used to sing this song to the class and then had us learn the words and sing it along with her. She played it on acoustic Guitar. I've always remembered it.
Very cool !! Back in '89, when I was 47 and the band just beginning, it was one of the first songs we all knew... 5th grade was when I first learned about the Civil War and decided I would be a Rebel.
Ironically, my country was on the side of the USA in Civil War... But the time has changed. Now we support South! He shall rise again! And your music is always a pleasure to my ears, thank you!
Not only do I enjoy eating goober peas (had some good boiled ones this morning), this song brings back memories of singing it with my friends when we were boys.
Thanks for posting this! Soldiers of all armies liked to razz civillians and Confederate soldiers were no exception. A boy, about 12 years old, was leading a mule along a line of resting rebels. He had a very tight grip on the rope. "HEY,BOY!" taunted one soldier. "You sure do have a tight grip on your brother there. Are you afraid he might get lost?" Loud laughter came from the resting soldiers. "No",replied the boy. "I'm afraid he might run off and join the army. Complete silence from the resting rebels. From the booklet,Rebel Humor.
Glad to hear a bones player, was my instrument back in the 80. I made a bunch and gave them away, Always loved it when Joe Ayers was at a event playing a night.We had a good camp band in the 11th Nct.
Love the period bits and pieces here and there among the audience. Kid wearing a confederate hat. Woman walking past in a civil war era skirt. Man with a tea cup. etc
@@-jank-willson I find history fascinating and the US civil war is no different. History is always written by the winner, where reality and the justification of their cause is often heavily misleading
@@sl_721 Yeah, like there were abolitionists that sided with the confederacy, and tried to end slavery from within the confederate government. (although they admittedly didn't get very far lol). There was also a black slave who had bought himself out of slavery just a few years before the outbreak of the civil war, and was employed and paid a small fortune by the confederate army to build bridges to transport troops. And many (free) black men fought as soldiers for the confederate army. But all that info is brushed under the rug.
@@-jank-willson let’s not forget that Abraham Lincoln was not vehemently opposed to slavery. He admitted that as long he kept the union together, he didn’t care if slavery remained legal. The war wasn’t based on slavery, but the want for local governance and fair taxation and other economic issues
@@sl_721 only the top 1% of the confederate/southern elite gave a damm about slavery. The common people only cared about the other issues you mentioned. Many common folk had never even seen a dark-skinned individual before because all the slaves were kept behind fences at plantations...
Wonderfull song Can almost se jeb Stuart riding in to your camp, and opening the Ball with All the southern belles, thanks you great People semper fi always faithful, from tom your friend
I love the kids having fun singing along! And to think I didn’t know Ernest T. Bass was talking about a real song when he said he could play Goober Peas on the gas can!
Happy 4th, Neighbors and I learned all the good old songs in grade school a long time ago BUT this is the 1st time I've heard Goober Peas in ages, maybe since them days. Hope all are wobbling because all the kicking days are long gone but I'll settle for a good wobble now and then. The kids knew the song better than I did but I think I got the chorus pretty good. God Bless All Yall and thanks from barely across the line!
@@maifafelltemmie6300 commie libtards don't understand humor. As a descendant of a Ohio Volunteer, I appreciate history and am Damn proud of America. Was the south misguided? Yes! They also had a different outlook on Federalism and race that they paid a heavy price for. I can appreciate our common history because America is better than anything that exists now!

And thank YOU very much! Those two little goomers are hgelping to keep the South alive. Hope all is well from the soggy hills across the line a little ways north, but not THAT far north!!
Great job as always. Also, would you guys wanna come to the Prairie Grove reenactment this year on december 1st? It's a smaller reenactment so I don't know if you guys would do it but me and my friends would love to see ya'll there.
@@trition1234the soldiers were tired of eating peanuts or “Goober Peas.” Supply issues in the confederacy resulted in boiled peanuts being a mainstay of rebel soldiers.
I learned this song in grade school music class back in the late fifties. Don't think I'd heard it since then until now. Btw I'd love to know where y'all get your hats -- esp the banjoist's straw topper!
Dirty Billy's Hats in Gettysburg. Be prepared... They ain't inexpensive - especially the straw topper. The one I'm wearing did NOT come from Billy, however, and I've never been able to find another.
@@patrickdaly5068 It has long been my view that it is the HAT that nails down the impression. Nothing can ruin your impression quicker than a cheap, crappy hat. Same goes for westerns. 'Tombstone', 'Lonesome Dove', and above all, '1883' by Paramount+ set the bar for period authenticity when it comes to Hollywood wardrobes.

Thank you fine sir. Greetings from The Great Lone Star State of Texas!
Respect to those two soldiers who were so bored they sang a song about eating peanuts.
Goober Peas are Peanuts
55 years ago we listened in music class in Gloucester Mass. Today people are too thin skinned and just plain ununderstanding of history.
You sound like a traitor
To understand history is to break your heart.

Truly American history.
It wasn't all hating each other. I mean the best they could come up with is Billy Yank and Johnny Reb.
This song says it all.
and they all liked peanuts!
Such a perfect song for summer nights!
God bless forever Old Dixie..rebel spirit will never die!!
I remember singing this in Elementary school every morning. what a great southern song
Very south accented but fun fact both sides actually sang this they loved the peanuts so much lol!
In that Battle Cry of Freedom game, playing this song ALWAYS gets a few people in voice chat singing along.
Love the southern culture❤ !! From belgium

Song about peanuts. 🙂 When I was young, my dad often sang this chorus. They sang it in school. Maybe it was in a play.
The kids are just fantastic looking!!!
Awesome song. I love your music. Keep it going

Yes sir!

Beautiful music. God bless Dixie and it’s people from your Irish brothers 🇮🇪 (Nice to see the young man at 2:55 wearing an Irish soccer jersey 😉)
