Refrain
Your Grand-dad did his duty in the Civil war
He fell by his master’s side
Your daddy bravely did his bit at San Juan Hill
You know that’s where he died
So I know that you will do your duty, too
And remember, son of mine
When the good Lord makes a record of a hero’s deed
He draws no color line
