Our camp fires shown bright on the mountain That frowned on the river below, As we stood by our guns in the morning, Then sang we a' song of our chieftain, That echoed over river and lea; And the stars of our banner shone brighter Then cheer upon cheer for bold Sherman That came from the lips of the men; More bright in their splendor would be, And the blessings from Northland would greet us, CHORUS. Then sang we a song, etc. Then forward, boys! forward to battle! We marched on our wearisome way, Frowned down on the flag of the free; Then sang we a song, etc. Still onward we pressed, till our banners Yet we twined them a wreath of the laurel, CHORUS. Then sang we a song, etc. Oh, proud was our army that morning, And the stars in our banner shone brighter MARCHING THROUGH GEORGIA. Bring the good old bugle, boys! we'll sing another song, Hurrah! Hurrah! the flag that makes you free!" How the darkeys shouted when they heard the joyful sound! CHORUS.-Hurrah! Hurrah! we bring the Jubilee! etc. Yes, and there were Union men who wept with joyful tears, When they saw the honor'd flag they had not seen for years; Hardly could they be restrained from breaking forth in cheers, While we were marching through Georgia. CHORUS.-Hurrah! Hurrah! we bring the Jubilee! etc. "Sherman's dashing Yankee boys will never reach the coast!" While we were marching through Georgia.
