We are marching o ' er lifes road Husband
My soldier brave and true
And many a time I ' de faltered
If it hadent been for you
The future looked so dreary
And our feet had weary grown
But you bravely said Teressa
We are only marching home .
We are sure to meet our dear ones
If bravely we push on
All safe in camp and waiting
To welcome us at home .
Our path in life ' s been stormy
And if we are not brave
We shall prove deserters
In that camp beyond the grave .
