The girls we left behind us, boys, our sweet-hearts at the North; The girls we left behind us, boys, our sweet-hearts at the North; The girls we left behind us, boys, our sweet-hearts at the North; Smile on us as we march. Oh, sweet-hearts, don't forget us; Oh, sweet-hearts, don't forget us; Oh, sweet-hearts, don't forget us; We'll soon come marching home! H. DE MARSAN, Publisher, 60 Chatham str. New-York. Stamped: 48
