Lyrics
I stand for motherhood, America,
And a hot lunch for orphans
Take off your hat, sir
While your country's flag is passing
Do you see him
On the hills at Gettysburg
'Neath that great triumphant arch?
You can see him as he's trampling through the grapes of wrath
Stand up and march, march, march!
I stand for motherhood, America,
And a hot lunch for orphans
Take off your hat, sir
There's a tear-stained eagle passing
Do you see him
On the bridge at Waterloo
'Neath that great triumphal arch?
If you hear him singing Dixie in the sugar cane
Stand up and march, march, march!
I stand for motherhood, America, (Alamo)
And a hot lunch for orphans (Remember the Alamo)
Take off your hat, sir (I regret that I've one)
While your country's (Life to give for my)
Flag is passing (Country)
Do you see him (In the words of Lincoln)
On the field at Waterloo (One if by land and two if by sea)
'Neath that great triumphal arch (Yes Dad I chopped that cherry tree down)
If you see him as he's (O, Stonewall Jackson)
Trampling through the grapes of wrath (Glory, glory, hallelujah)
Stand up and march march
Four score and seven years ago!
March, march
Damn the torpedoes, full speed ahead!
March, march, march!
