America's Glory
———


Tune—"All the Blue Bonnets Are Over the Border.

March, march, brave men and loyal men,
  Why, my lads, don't you stand forward in order?
March, march, brave men and valiant men,
  Go with the lads who are over the border.
Long may the eagle spread flutter above their head,
  So that our name may be famous in story.
Up and be ready, lads, fight for the dear old flag—
  Fight for your home and America's glory.

March, march, the bugle is sounding,
  Why, don't you hear how the drums they are pounding?
March, march, to the music that's always true,
  Onward to death or to victory for the Red, White and Blue,
So that our name be heard—honored both far and wide,
  So that no traitor will e'er reach our shore.
Up and be ready, lads, fight for the dear old flag—
  Fight for your President and America's glory.
