Lyrics

O ver hill, o ver dale, we go march ing down the trail, And those cais sons go roll ing a long.

For ward march, left and right and those sol diers sure can fight, While the cais sons go roll ing a long.

For it’s

Hi, Hi, Ho, in the field ar til ler y,

Sound off your num bers loud and strong.

And where e’er we go,

folks at home will know, That those cais sons go roll ing a long,

That those cais sons go roll ing a long.
