My friends I pray you listenB
A story I will tellC
It's of two noble soldiersD
And they were known full wellC
They were killed in the rebellionB
As you shall plainly hearE
Those brave and noble soldiersD
No danger did they fearF
-
They enlisted in Grand RapidsG
In eighteen and sixty twoH
'Twas in the month of AugustI
About the middle tooH
These two brave noble soldiersD
They joined the cavalryJ
They fought to save their countryJ
United it yet may beJ
-
One of them a single manK
His name was Martin HouseL
The other one was marriedM
His name I'll tell you nowN
Abram Bishop was his nameO
He was a christian manK
Two soldiers they were brave andP
They hailed from MichiganB
-
When they left their native placeQ
Their friends to them did sayR
Oh do not go to war boysS
You'd better with us stayR
For if you join the armyJ
You never will returnT
To all your friends that love youH
You never will returnT
-
Young House spoke unto his friendsU
I'd rather go said heJ
I have no wife and childrenB
To weep and mourn for meJ
I hear my country callingV
For her sons of libertyJ
And I for one must go friendsU
A coward I cannot beJ
-
We are not afraid of fightingV
The rebels no not weJ
They're bound to make our countryJ
A place for slaves to beJ
Our fathers fought before usW
To gain our libertyJ
And we the sons of freemenX
Must fight to keep it freeJ
-
Farewell farewell to all our friendsU
That we may leave behindY
If we do never returnT
We pray you bear in mindY
If God sees fit to call usW
We are not afraid to dieA
Our country she is callingV
We must bid you all good byeA
-
It was in Old VirginiaZ
Those noble soldiers fellC
In the battle of Hanover townA2
As many a man can tellC
They fought through many battlesB2
Obeyed their captain's callC2
Alas the missles struck themD2
And caused them both to fallC2
