The Battle Cry of Freedom

(BATTLE SONG)

I

We are marching to the field, boys, we’re marching to the fight,

Shouting the battle-cry of freedom,

And we bear the glorious stars for the Union and the right,

Shouting the battle-cry of freedom.

Chorus–

The Union forever, Hurrah! boys, Hurrah!

Down with the traitor, up with the stars.

For we’er marching to the field boys, going to the fight,

Shouting the battle-cry of freedom!

II

We will meet the rebel host, boys, with fearless heart and true,

Shouting the battle-cry of freedom,

And we’ll show what Uncle Sam has for loyal men to do,

Shouting the battle-cry of freedom.

CHORUS

III

If we fall amid the fray, boys, we’ll face them to the last,

Shouting the battle-cry of freedom,

And our comrades brave shall hear us, as they go rushing past,

Shouting the battle-cry of freedom

CHORUS

IV

Yes, for Liberty and Union we’re springing to the fight,

Shouting the battle-cry of freedom

And the vict’ry shall be ours, for we’re rising in our might,

Shouting the battle-cry of freedom.

CHORUS

Some motivation to prepare us for the coming battles.

From the movie Gettysburg
