It is a civil war era version of a much older Irish Ballad, "The Girl I Left Behind Me". It also seems to be somewhat colloquialized (Either to post Civil War Missouri, or perhaps to the screenwriter's idea of post Civil War Missouri...) as I cannot find the exact lyrics on the web. I also recall a version of this song being featured in at least one John Wayne cavalry western.
