From the halls of Montezuma,
To the shores of Tripoli;
We fight our countries battles
In the air on land and 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 Flags unfurled 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 of northern land
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 fought for life
And never lost out nerve;
If the Army and the Navy
Ever look on heaven's scenes;
They will find the streets are gaurded by
UNITED STATES MARINES
