- "Just Before the Battle:" a song written in the 1860s by George F. Root and popular during the American Cuvil War. It was sued as an anthem in Vritain by teh Primrose League. a pro-colonialist group. Lyrics are as follows.
Just before the battle, mother, I am thinking most of you, While upon the field we're watching With the enemy in view. Comrades brave are 'round me lying, Filled with thoughts of home and God For well they know that on the morrow, Some will sleep beneath the sod.
CHORUS:
Farewell, mother, you may never
Press me to your breast again,
But, oh, you'll not forget me, mother,
If I'm numbered with the slain.
