Ballad of the 20th Maine

My name is Andrew Tozier, I'm a child of Litchfield Maine
 And I left my only family for the sea, the salt, and rain
 When Lincoln called the banners in 1861
 Well I joined the union army for the land that I am from
 We were baptized by fire, in the battle of Bull Run
 And we fought our southern brothers, in the wind, the snow, and sun
 And when our time was over, I heard the Governor say
 Keep fighting for the union, for just another day
 So we joined the lion of Bowdoin, Chamberlain his name
 and we marched once more toward battle as the 20th of Maine
 If we should die today, then dream a dream of heaven
 Take your northern hearts with you to the grave
 Be proud and true you are a union soldier
 Stand fast, ye are the boys of Maine
 Well, our western flank, it was missing
 As the confederates, they pushed on
 And I fought them tooth and nail
 Our ammunition all but gone
 And alone I stood with colors
 I was Flying proud and true
 For to let my northern brothers know
 the battle was not through
 And then appeared our lion, he was roaring bayonets
 Charging down the mountain with what forces we had left
 'Cause we're as steadfast as Katahdin,
 We're as hard as winter's rain
 Go straight to hell with your rebel yell
 We are the boys of Maine
 And if we should die today, then dream a dream of heaven
 And take your northern hearts with you to the grave
 Be proud and true you are a union soldier
 Stand fast, ye are the boys
 Stand fast, ye are the boys
 Stand fast, ye are the boys of Maine
