There were colonels, there were majors,

There were officers and soldiers;

Men who went from farm and fireside,

Men who went from shop and ploughshare.

All the States rose up in answer

To the martial proclamation.

There were Pike and Brown and Chandler,

Boyd, Macomb, and Scott and Winder,

Dudley, Harrison, and Hampton,

Miller, Wilkinson, and Bainbridge,
