A RECRUITING SONG,
For the Maryland Independent Company.
(By an Officer of the Company)
Over the hills with heart we go,
To fight the proud, insulting foe;
Our country calls and we'll obey,
Over the hills and far away.
CHORUS
Over the mountains dreary waste,
To meet the enemy we haste;
Our King commands and we'll obey,
Over the hills and far away.
. . . [10 more verses; burden includes "Over the mountains,
&c." for first 4 verses and "Over the rocks, &c." for other
verses]
