♦ You say you don’t believe in war, 4
4 You think it wrong to fight; 4
4 Thousands tho’t like you, my friend— 4
4 They’re at the front tonight! 4
♦ ♦
4 They, too, tho’t it was savage 4
4 To shoot and stab and kill, 4
4 But when our country called them 4
4 They only knew her will! 4
♦ ♦
4 Over there on the battlefield 4
4 Facing the Belching guns! 4
4 They’ll fight and die for Uncle Sam— 4
4 Our stalwart soldier sons! 4

4 No matter what we may 4
4 Or may not think is right, 4
4 Remember the boys at the front • 4
4 Are fighting for us tonight! 4
♦ ♦
4 Some of them will suffer 4
4 And some of them will die! , 4
4 So aid the noble Red Cross 4
4 And help it to STAND BY! 4
♦ ♦
4 That skillful hands and tender 4
4 May soothe our woundeds’ pain; 4
4 Nui *se them back to health and strength 4
4 And send them home again! 4

4 Bonding o’er the dying 4
4 A white robed figure stands, 4
4 The message breathed for Mother 4
4 Saved from the sinking sands! 4

4 Again I say, no matter 4
4 If you be pacifist, 4
4 The fact remains WE ARE AT WAR 4
4 And each one must assist! 4
♦ ♦
4 Our Uncle Sam will surely win, 4
4 So let’s protect our own, ' 4
4 And win the right to wreleome them
4 When our boys come marching home!!! 4i
