I. IMPROMPTUS by Solomon S. Drogin

103. Sweetheart (What Price Glory)

'Neath the pale moon, shadows o'erhanging
'Midst the hooting owl and the lion's roar
The feet of men were steadily swinging
Onward, forward, toward, to the battle's roar

The shells crash, cannons boom
Grenades that flash, rockets which zoom
O Mars, who thus has angered you
That man must exterminate a few

The hearts are joyous, the long was over
As the transport brings me home to you
What sweeter words could I whisper
Than, sweetheart, I love you.
