Timothy Jaques tjaques@netcom.ca American Revolutionary Songs (20) RE: American Revolutionary Songs 04 Feb 98


What about The Girl I Left Behind Me? Is it truly a song of the American Revolution (or fife and drum marching tune) and if not why do they always play it during shows about that period, just like the movies always associate Custer with Garryowen, and the American Civil War with that tune that was in this century known as The Doodletown Fifers?
