AbSecon Proud of Her Sons.
Absecon is proud of her sons so true.
Who have gone forth to do all they can do.
With steady step and stalwart frame,
we hope away from US they won't long re-
main.
But whether its long or whether its short.
We hope they will safely reach their port.
Absecon was sorry to see them leave,
And many a mothers heart has been grieved.
But they have gone forth to fight and win,
And help make the Kaiser's throne a has
BEEN.
Absecon will welcome them home some day
Yes, every one of them, We earnestly pray.
