"Marching Along" - American Civil War Song [LYRICS]

[@ArchivumMusicum21]

Correction: I should've put Abe Lincoln instead of Mccllelan.

[@matthewdelmaro1793]

I knew it sounded different

[@dizzygman3638]

@@matthewdelmaro1793 I know I thought the same. All good, Archivum thanks for clarifying!

[@GlitchR-eb7yj]

The lyrics is supposed to be McClellan

[@cornman3266]

Grant

[@cac_deadlyrang]

1:10 No wonder the Confederacy lost, the Union had Gordon Freeman among its ranks.

[@shawnmendrek3544]

God bless our Union!

[@betalr4794]

"McClellan's brilliance" the irony tho its a good song and the union forever 🇺🇸

[@ArchivumMusicum21]

Its catchy, yes?

[@homeonegreen9]

It is Abe Lincoln I think. Although for all his problems commanding a campaign McClellan did train the Army of the Potomac well, so they might credit him there. He just made such a pretty army that he was afraid to use it nor was he able to accept that the whole plan is often useless as soon as the first shot is fired.

[@thatreddude8796]

I believe he was popular with the troops despite his failures militarily

*Abe Lincoln

[@Beorthere]

It sounds like Abe Lincoln not McClellan.

[@ArchivumMusicum21]

Actually, yeah. Sounds like Abe Lincoln

[@GrizzlyJacko]

Not gonna lie, he sounds like a Bostonian. Specifically JFK.

[@Beorthere]

@@GrizzlyJacko Noticed your flag, New England/New York definitely won us the war with the South due to their industry and population, but my home state of Washington, a territory at the time, had raised a volunteer regiment itself. God bless Colonel Justus Steinberger and the 1st Washington Territory Infantry Regiment

[@jamesmcmillan8610]

McClellan was from the East Coast, though, so the guy doing the intro would have probably sounded more like him than he would Lincoln (born in Kentucky, and spent most of his life in Illinois).

[@patrickrowan6406]

This is probably my favorite union song just because of the line "Our wives and our children, we leave in your care, we feel you will help them with sorrows to bare, tis hard thus to part, but we hope t’wont be long, we’ll keep up our hearts as were marching along". It feels so perfectly human.

[@GlitchR-eb7yj]

In the original version of this song it was McCellan, but whoever sung this version decided to use Abe Lincoln instead

[@caderiddle5996]

Ya know, I think that’s better. Mcclellan sucked.

[@Armyblueimperium]

For the united states of America 🇺🇸 and everyone thar die to protect our home!

[@archimedesfromteamfortress2]

Song starts at 0:29 by the way

[@Beorthere]

That Atlantic accent though...

[@how4646]

Joshua Chamberlain moment

[@ReconstructedYankee1882]

As a Reenactor this is actually my favorite version of this song

[@teresacarpenter5800]

Willing to march, but my money is on Grant.

[@msved753]

No, Billy Sherman is the best

[@tizianosac]
