Mine eyes have seen the glory of the coming of the Lord:
He is trampling out the vintage where the grapes of wrath are stored;
He hath loosed the fateful lightning of His terrible swift sword:
His truth is marching on.

I can see the lights of home
Shining brightly o'er the foam;
Beckon to me while I roam
Away from the lights of home.
In that little old sleepy town
Nothing happens after the sun goes down;
Nothing but moonbeams roam around
Beneath the lights of home.
Turn the hands of time for me,
Let me live in my memory.
Once again I long to be
Beneath the lights of home.

He's the boogie-woogie bugle boy of Company B.
