Lincoln, Grant and Lee; or, The War Is Over Many Years.

At Gettysburg and Chickamauga, where grim war once held full sway, Wave the fields of corn and cotton, showing we are one today; Bitterness of North and Southland shall not, can not, will not, last: Desolation, want and mis'ry, all are buried in the past.

Chorus: The war is over many years, a reunited nation we, Future history will mention three names--Lincoln, Grant and Lee. The war is over many years, a reunited nation we, Future history will mention three names— Lincoln, Grant and Lee.

Marching on to greater glory, vet'rans of the yesterday, Arms entwined around each other, heroes of the Blue and Gray; Guns are silent, plough and shovel till the stalks of ripening grain, Differences all forgotten, reunited once again.
