Old Abe

Old Abe he's in the white house
He's a-takin' on a snooze
Old Grant he's a-bustin gut with the booze
We're out a-waitin' snow and we ain't got no shoes
We'll keep a-marchin' on

Glory, glory, Hallelujah
Glory, glory, Hallelujah
Glory, glory, Hallelujah
We'll keep marchin' on

Winter is a-comin', it's a-gettin' mighty cold
Winter is a-comin', it's a-gettin' mighty cold
Soon all the generals will be crawlin' in their holes
We'll keep marchin' on

Glory, glory, Hallelujah
Glory, glory, Hallelujah
Glory, glory, Hallelujah
We'll keep marchin' on

Every time you shoot a rebel, there's one thing for sure
Every time you shoot a rebel, there's one thing for sure
Every time you shoot a rebel up'll jump a dozen more
We'll keep marchin' on

Glory, glory, Hallelujah
Glory, glory, Hallelujah
Glory, glory, Hallelujah
We'll keep marchin' on

Old Abe he freed the colored man, glory Halleloo
Old Abe he freed the colored man, glory Halleloo
I wish to my Lord he would set me free too
Then I'd go marchin' home

Glory, glory, Hallelujah
Glory, glory, Hallelujah
Glory, glory, Hallelujah
We'll keep marchin' on

They tell us we are winning, but I can't hardly tell
They tell us we are winning, but I can't hardly tell
For I know at Chickamaugy that they shot us to hell
But we kept marchin' on

Glory, glory, Hallelujah
Glory, glory, Hallelujah
Glory, glory, Hallelujah
We'll keep marchin' on
