 Hi, ya, Marie, a HOPELESS Civil War music addict knows all the words and can sing them without getting mixed up.

Me, all I know is that when I'm listening to the 97th Regimental's CD vol. 4, and I hear "Weeping, Sad and Lonely," then the next is that secesh Christmas song.  I get ready to sing the 3-word refrain after every verse.

Actually, I hardly understand that type of poetry.  "The patriotic gore that stained the streets of Baltimore."  Should be rated V for violent.  I still don't understand what gory streets have to do with pine trees.

La-la-la, la, la-la-la.  Patty
