Lyrics
You say you’re proud I joined the Army?
Never fear, no other eyes shall charm me
You want me to fight, I know you are right
So kiss me dear, and please remember
Chorus:
I’ll fight for you and Yankee freedom
With all my energy and might
From ramparts in the jungle bed that’s seething
I’ll wage a winning glorious fight
And stop our foe from even breathing
And Victory lives for we are right
The Stars and Stripes will never surrender
And my true love, you shall remember
