Robert Carr — Theres A Tramp Tramp Tramp Upon the Highway

[Verse 1] What's this music in the air ? What's this cheering ev'rywhere? Hearts are wildly beating For that joyful meeting Someone's coming home again- Hear that martial strain! [Refrain] There's a tramp, tramp, tramp upon the highway There's the sound of music drawing near; There's a vacant chair that's waiting there For the one that we love so dear; There's a song that ev'rybody's singing As the boys come sailing o'er the foam Peace on earth at last, the dark night past That's the song that will lead them Home [Verse 2] Who's that marching o'er the hill? Why do hearts begin to thrill? Through the dark clouds shining There's a silver lining: Dreams at last are coming true Dreams for me and you [Refrain] There's a tramp, tramp, tramp upon the highway There's the sound of music drawing near; There's a vacant chair that's waiting there For the one that we love so dear; There's a song that ev'rybody's singing As the boys come sailing o'er the foam Peace on earth at last, the dark night past That's the song that will lead them Home
