This is the regimental song of the 3d ACR(Brave Rifles) and, according to their unit history, here are the lyrics I left my loves a letter in the holler of a tree I told 'em they could find me in the U.S. Cavalry (CHORUS) Hi Ho, off we go, a never-ending story We'll ride right through to Hell! and Back! And grab the reins of glory I left my my love, my love I left a sleepin in the bed I left the side of my true love to fight until I'm dead CHORUS In eighteen hundred forty six the call to war began A regiment of mounted men, of mounted riflemen. Chorus From Mexico, our first campaign, and through the civil war As Patton's lead, our country's need, and back from Saudi's shore chorus The sun may set on all the rest, but they can never be BRAVE RIFLES, VETERANS! BLOOD AND STEEL, THE BEST OF CAVALRY! Hi ho, off we go, a never-ending story We'll ride straight through to Hell! and Back! And grab the reins of glory To any Brave Rifles who may see this AIEEYAH!!!! from a cavmom
