"The Boys of the Old Brigade" a march by William Paris Chambers (1854-1913), born in Newport, Pennsylvania, died in Newville, Pennsylvania where he is buried in a private cemetery. He was a brilliant cornetist who made recordings of his own solo compositions that can still be heard through several sources. His father, Lieutenant James Chambers, beside whom he is buried, served with with the 49th Pennsylvania Infantry and in Winfield Scott Hancock's Brigade in the Army of the Potomac during the Civil War, a fact that may have been the inspiration for the title of this march. "The Boys of the Old Brigade" was later an Irish rebel song written by Paddy McGuigan about the Irish Republican Army of the Irish War of Independence (1919-1921).
Thanks to Robert M. Goodman for searching informations about this great march.
Lyrics:
Where are the boys of the Old Brigade
Who fought with us side by side?
Shoulder to shoulder and blade to blade,
Fought till they fell and died!
Who so merry and undismayed?
Who so merry and true?
Where are the boys of the Old Brigade?
Where are the lads we knew?
Then steadily shoulder to shoulder,
Steadily blade by blade!
Ready and strong,
Marching along,
Like the boys of the Old Brigade.
Then steadily shoulder to shoulder,
Steadily blade by blade!
Ready and strong,
Marching along,
Like the boys of the Old Brigade.
Over the sea faraway they lie,
Far from the land of their love.
Nations alter, the years go by,
But Heav'n still is Heav'n above!
Not in the Abbey proudly laid,
Find they a place or part,
The gallant boys of the Old Brigade,
They sleep in old England's heart!
Then steadily shoulder to shoulder,
Steadily blade by blade!
Ready and strong,
Marching along,
Like the boys of the Old Brigade.
Then steadily shoulder to shoulder,
Steadily blade by blade!
Ready and strong,
Marching along,
Like the boys of the Old Brigade.
