Marching Through Georgia
/ˌmɑːtʃɪŋ θruː ˈdʒɔːdʒə/
/ˌmɑːrtʃɪŋ θruː ˈdʒɔːrdʒə/
- a lively US song about the violent progress of General William Tecumseh Sherman and his army through Georgia during the Civil War in November 1864. The words after each verse are: “‘Hurrah! hurrah! we bring the Jubilee!Hurrah! hurrah! the flag that makes you free!’So we sang the chorus from Atlanta to the sea,While we were marching through Georgia.”
