on the way to dedicate a battlefield,
where men from the north and south had died at Gettysburg Pennsylvania.
"Four score and seven years ago our forefathers brought forth on this continent
a new nation, conceived in liberty
Now we're engaged in a great civil war,
testing whether that nation, or any nation so conceived
and so dedicated, can long endure.
We are met on a great battlefield of that war.
We have come to dedicate a portion of that field
as a final resting place for those who here gave their lives,
that that nation might live.
But in a larger sense we cannot dedicate, we cannot consecrate,
We cannot hallow this ground
(The) brave men, living and dead, who struggled here,
have consecrated it, far above our poor power to add or detract.
The world will little note, nor long remember what we say here,
but it can never forget what they did here.
It is for us the living, rather, to be dedicated here to the unfinished work
which they who fought here have thus far so nobly advanced.
It is rather for us to be here dedicated to the great task remaining before us:
that from these honored dead we take increased devotion
to that cause for which they gave the last full measure of devotion;
that we here highly resolve that these dead shall not have died in vain
that this nation, under God, shall have a new birth of freedom
shall not perish from the earth.

He was the kind of man who would...
Every town has its town bum
I guess ours had one
Here's a song about him, I remember him fondly
Well his name was Abner Brown
I knew an old drunk name...
Well, I woke up Sunday morning
With no way to hold my head that didn't hurt
And the beer I had for breakfast wasn't bad
So I had one more for dessert

Beside a Singin'
Mountain Stream
Where the
Willow grew
Where the
Silver Leaf of
Mornin' Dew
I braided
Twigs of Willows
Made a String of
Buckeye Beads

I'm a charger that charges through the night
Like an orange bolt of lightning passing everything in sight
I'm the best pal that you boys ever had
