歌词

[00:38.434] We are coming, Father Abraham, three hundred thousand more,
[00:42.070] From Mississippi's winding stream and from New England's shore.
[00:45.713] We leave our plows and workshops, our wives and children dear,
[00:49.637] With hearts too full for utterance, with but a silent tear.
[00:53.277] We dare not look behind us but steadfastly before.
[00:56.923] We are coming, Father Abraham, three hundred thousand more!
[01:00.841] We are coming, we are coming, our Union to restore,
[01:04.486] We are coming, Father Abraham, with three hundred thousand more!
[01:08.607] We are coming, Father Abraham, with three hundred thousand more!
[01:11.970] If you look across the hilltops that meet the northern sky,
[01:15.603] Long moving lines of rising dust your vision may descry;
[01:19.518] And now the wind, an instant, tears the cloudy veil aside,
[01:23.436] And floats aloft our spangled flag in glory and in pride;
[01:27.067] And bayonets in the sunlight gleam, and bands brave music pour,
[01:30.986] We are coming, father Abr'am, three hundred thousand more!
[01:34.622] We are coming, we are coming, our Union to restore,
[01:38.260] We are coming, Father Abraham, with three hundred thousand more!
[01:42.184] We are coming, Father Abraham, with three hundred thousand more!
