¶Lyrics / Text

:Come from the mountain side, :Come from the valleys wide, :See, how we muster strong, :Tramping along! :Rifle on shoulder sling, :Powder and bullets bring, :Manly in mind and heart, :Play we our part. :Sure be each eye to-day, :Steady each hand must stay :If in the trial we, :Victors would be! :Sharp is the crack! 't Is done! :Lost in the chance, or won; :Right in the gold is it? :Huzza! The hit! :The sun will sink and light the west :And touch the peaks with crimson glow; :Then shadows fill the vale with rest :While stars look peace on all below. :In triumph then we take our way, :And with our prizes homeward wend; :Through meadows sweet with new-mown hay, :A song exultant will we send.
