FroFrom the halls of Montezuma
to
the Shores of Tripoli,
We
fight our country's battles
On
the land as on the sea.
First
to fight for right and freedom,
And
to keep our honor clean,
We
are proud to claim the title
of
United States Marines.
"Our
flag's unfurl'd to every breeze
From
dawn to setting sun;
We
have fought in every clime and place
Where
we could take a gun.
In
the snow of far-off northern lands
And
in sunny tropic scenes,
You
will find us always on the job
The
United States Marines.
"Here's
health to you and to our Corps
Which
we are proud to serve;
In
many a strife we've fought for life
And
never lost our nerve.
If
the Army and the Navy
Ever
look on Heaven's scenes,
They
will find the streets are guarded
By
United States Marines."
