Bugles Across America.

Or the Buggles?

I have to say something about the words to Taps.

I am glad that hardly anyone knows that there are lyrics to the music.

WHAT???? Hardly anyone knows the words??? I have, like most Americans, known the first two verses since I was a very young child. I learned it at summer camp.

Heck, we learned the song and the "Native American" hand signs that went with it.

Honestly...>

I always knew the first whole verse, we used to sing it at summer camp every night at the flag lowering ceremony. However we never learned hand signs to go with it.

*eta, I consider this the first whole verse;
Day is done, gone the sun,
From the lake, from the hills, from the sky;
All is well, safely rest, God is nigh.
