All Quiet Along The Potomac - The Union Confederacy[00:00:00]

All quiet along the Potomac tonight[00:00:04]

All quiet along the Potomac tonight[00:00:14]

Except here and there a stray picket[00:00:18]

Is shot as he walks on his beat to and fro [00:00:23]

By a rifleman hid in the thicket [00:00:27]

'Tis nothing a private or two now and then[00:00:32]

Will not count in the news of the battle;[00:00:36]

Not an officer lost only one of the men [00:00:41]

Moaning out all alone the death rattle [00:00:46]

"All quiet along the Potomac tonight "[00:00:55]

There's only the sound of the lone sentry's tread [00:01:06]

As he tramps for the rock to the fountain [00:01:11]

And thinks of the two on the low trundle bed [00:01:15]

Far away in the cot on the mountain [00:01:20]

His musket falls slack[00:01:25]

His face dark and grim [00:01:27]

Grows gentle with memories tender [00:01:30]

As he mutters a pray'r for the children asleep [00:01:34]

And their Mother may heaven defend her[00:01:39]

"All quiet along the Potomac tonight "[00:01:50]

Hark Was it the night wind that rustled the leaves [00:02:01]

Was it moonlight so wondrously flashing [00:02:05]

It looks like a rifle Ah Mary good bye[00:02:10]

And the lifeblood is ebbing and splashing [00:02:15]

All quiet along the Potomac tonight [00:02:19]

No sound save the rush of the river[00:02:24]

While soft falls the dew on the face of the dead[00:02:29]

The picket's off duty forever [00:02:34]

All quiet along the Potomac tonight[00:02:45]
