[edit] Alternate lyrics?

Are there alternate lyrics to the Caisson version of the song? This site has lyrics other than those in the article.--Daveswagon 01:05, 30 August 2006 (UTC)

The way I learned the song it was caskets that go rolling along66.189.9.198 19:22, 13 April 2007 (UTC)

My father, a WWII AAC vet taught me another version, reflecting the modernization of the military:

Over hill, over dale,
We have hit the dusty trail,
With those caissons and hosses all gone.
See the green guidon stuck,
On the off side of a truck,
Motor trucks with the pieces hooked on.
 Then it's hi-hi-see,
 The muddy infantry,
 Sound off your klaxons loud and strong! Ah-oog-ah!)
 For where e're we go,
 We will always know,
That those caissons and hosses are gone.
Motor trucks with the pieces hooked on.

Anyone else remember the rest of the verses? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 71.13.209.9 (talk) 04:40, 27 October 2007 (UTC)
