Lyrics
Military Waltz (Medley) Verse 1 (Red, White and Blue): O Columbia the gem of the ocean The home of the brave and the free, The shrine of each patriots devotion A world offers homage to thee. Thy mandates make heroes assemble When Liberties form stands in view. Thy banners make tyranny tremble When born by the Red, White and Blue Verse 2 (Tenting on the Old Camp Ground): We’re tenting tonight on the old camp ground Give us a song to cheer. Many are the hearts that are weary tonight To see the dawn of peace. Verse 3 (Dixie): I wish I was in Dixie. Hooray! Hooray! In Dixieland I’ll take my stand to lib and die in Dixie. Away! Away! Away down South in Dixie! Verse 4 (When Johnny Comes Marching Home): When Jonny comes marching home again hurrah! Hurrah! We’ll give him a hearty welcome then hurrah! Hurrah! The men will cheer the boys will shout The Ladies, they will all turn out, And we’ll all feel gay when Johnny comes marching home. Verse 5 (John Brown’s Body): Glory, Glory, Hallelujah! Gl
