COME TO THE BOWER. AKA - "Will You Come to the Bower." Irish, Air. A love song by Thomas Moore that reportedly Sam Houston had his three fifers (or sometimes one fifer) and drummer play as a marching song at the Battle of San Jacinto. The song was considered somewhat risque at the time. See Abernathy (Singing Texas).\
