[00:19.000]'Twas in the days of seventy-six
[00:21.300]When freemen young and old
[00:24.500]All fought for Independence then
[00:26.000]Each hero brave and bold!
[00:28.200]'Twas then the noble Stars and Stripes In triumph did appear
[00:32.000]And defended by brave patriots
[00:34.400]The Yankee Volunteers
[00:37.000]'Tis my delight to march and fight
[00:40.000]Like a New York Volunteer!
[00:44.000]New York Volunteer!
[00:55.000]Now, there's our City Regiments
[00:57.800]Just see what they have done:
[00:59.700]The first to offer to the State
[01:02.000]To go to Washington
[01:04.000]To protect the Federal Capital
[01:06.000]And the flag they love so dear!
[01:08.800]And they've done their duty nobly,
[01:11.100]Like New York Volunteers!
[01:13.000]'Tis my delight to march and fight
[01:15.500]Like a New York Volunteer!
[01:19.800]New York Volunteer!
[01:31.000]The Rebels out in Maryland
[01:33.400]They madly raved and swore,
[01:35.800]They'd let none of our Union troops
[01:38.000]Pass through Baltimore
[01:40.000]But the Massachusetts Regiment
[01:42.000]No traitors did they fear
[01:44.000]But fought their way to Washington
[01:47.000]Like Yankee Volunteers!
[01:49.000]Tis my delight to march and fight
[01:51.000]Like a New York Volunteer!
[01:55.000]New York Volunteer!
