Over hill, over dale,
as we hit the dusty trail,
and the caissons go rolling along.
In and out, hear them shout,
counter march and right about,
and the caissons go rolling along.
Then it's hi! hi! hee!
In the field artillery;
shout out your numbers loud and strong
For where e'er you go,
you will always know,
that the caissons go rolling along.
In the storm, in the night,
action left or action right;
see those caissons go rolling along
Limber front, limber rear,
prepare to mount your cannoneer,
and those caissons go rolling along.
Then it's hi! hi! hee!
In the field artillery;
shout out your numbers loud and strong
For where e'er you go,
you will always know,
that the caissons go rolling along.
Was it high, was it low,
where the hell did that one go?
As those Caissons go rolling along
Was it left, was it right,
now we won't get home tonight,
and those Caissons go rolling along.
Then it's hi! hi! hee!
In the field artillery;
shout out your numbers loud and strong
For where e'er you go,
you will always know,
that the caissons go rolling along.
that the caissons go rolling along.
that the caissons go rolling along.
