March into our yesterday.
Year by year their ranks grow thin.
Year by year time musters in
Those who bore the stress and strife
When the nation won its life.
They march away
Blue and gray.
Nigh forgot
The carnage hot
And the shock Of shell and shot.
Slowly now the drums must beat
For the tread of hating feet,
Softly now the shrill-sweet fife
Blows, but not as IN the strife

But as flags that fall a. night.
One flag bears the stars and bars,
One flag bears the stripes and stars

They march away
Soldiers of that yesterday.
Year by year their steps grow slow
While the unseen bugles blow
Taps for one and taps for all
To the mystic bugle call
They march away
