The words of songs that may be sung by folk bands

   Anchors Aweigh - - Stand Navy down the field, - Sails set to the sky. - We'll never change our course, - So Army you steer shy-y-y-y. - Roll up the score, Navy, - Anchors Aweigh. - Sail Navy down the field - And sink the Army, sink the Army Grey. - 2. Get underway, Navy, - Decks cleared for the fray, - We'll hoist true Navy Blue - So Army down your Grey-y-y-y. - Full speed ahead, Navy; - Army heave to, - Furl Black and Grey and Gold - And hoist the Navy, hoist the Navy Blue - - 3. Blue of the Seven Seas; - - Gold of God's great sun - Let these our colors be Till - All of time be done-n-n-ne, - By Severn shore we learn - Navy's stern call: - Faith, courage, service true - With honor over, honor over all.

 
 

Quotations about Folk Bands.      

A sample of what has been written about folk bands. A Quotation:-

There are in the music of the violin ... accents so closely akin to those ofcertain contralto voices that one has the illusion that a singer has taken her place amid the orchestra. One raises one’s eyes, and sees only the wooden case, delicate as a Chinese box, but at moments, one is still tricked by the Siren’s deceiving call; at times too, one thinks one is listening to a captive genie struggling in the darkness of the sapient, quivering and enchanted box, like a devil immersed in a stoup of holy water; sometimes, again, it is in the air, at large, like a pure and supernatural being that unfolds its invisible message as it goes by. Marcel Proust
