The Army Goes Rolling Along


The Army Goes Rolling Along  
The official Army song, based on The Caissons Go Rolling Along 
 by Brigadier General E.L. Gruber
 

 
Intro:
 March along, sing our song, with the Army of the free
 Count the brave, count the true, who have fought to victory
 We're the Army and proud of our name
 We're the Army and proudly proclaim 
First to fight for the right,
 And to build the Nation's might,
 And The Army Goes Rolling Along
 Proud of all we have done,
 Fighting till the battle's won,
 And the Army Goes Rolling Along. 

Then it's Hi! Hi! Hey!
 The Army's on its way.
 Count off the cadence loud and strong (TWO! THREE!)
 For where e'er we go,
 You will always know
 That The Army Goes Rolling Along.

 Valley Forge, Custer's ranks,
 San Juan Hill and Patton's tanks,
 And the Army went rolling along
 Minute men, from the start,
 Always fighting from the heart,
 And the Army keeps rolling along.

 Then it's Hi! Hi! Hey!
 The Army's on its way.
 Count off the cadence loud and strong (TWO! THREE!)
 For where e'er we go,
 You will always know
 That The Army Goes Rolling Along.

 Men in rags, men who froze,
 Still that Army met its foes,
 And the Army went rolling along.
 Faith in God, then we're right,
 And we'll fight with all our might,
 As the Army keeps rolling along.

 Then it's Hi! Hi! Hey!
 The Army's on its way.
 Count off the cadence loud and strong (TWO! THREE!)
 For where e'er we go,
 You will always know
 That The Army Goes Rolling Along
