Old John Brown’s body lies moldering in the grave,
While weep the sons of bondage whom he ventured all to save;
But tho he lost his life while struggling for the slave,
His soul is marching on.
--a verse by WW Pattton to the well-loved, and much played by me and learned by my from Gene Harris and so many others, to the tune of "John Brown's Body," which is played by Mr. Harris in G, but sung in Bb by the malevolent choristers in the dismal American movie *Inherit the Wind*, may their apples be sour in Hillsboro.
