Well, now that we have got off on Sherman and his bummers let's add a little levity to all the seriousness.
Sure everybody has heard Marching through Georgia but there was another version that went this way:
Come bring the good old banjo boys, Let's have a little song, Sing it with a chorus that will help us march along, Sing it as we used to sing it several hundred strong, As they went marchin' through Georgia.
Hurrah! Hurrah! said the chigger to the flea, Hurrah! Hurrah! we'll have a jubelee, We'll bite 'em on the ankle and we'll bite 'em on the knee, As they go marching through Georgia.

edited to add. PS remember that John Deere set more colored folks free than Lincoln ever though about.
