Why Are You Marching, Son? - John Wayne/Jimmy Dorsey Orchestra[00:00:00]

Why Are You Marching Son[00:00:22]

I'd really like to know[00:00:25]

Because of Valley Forge or perhaps the Alamo[00:00:27]

Or One if by land two if by sea[00:00:30]

A trumpet's callthe will to be free[00:00:33]

What of a man who stood straight and tall[00:00:37]

Who wept silent tears when he saw brave men fall[00:00:39]

No matter no difference the blue or the gray[00:00:43]

All were his brother[00:00:46]

Show often he'd pray[00:00:48]

And what of Antietam that now peaceful stream[00:00:50]

Where the water blood-red glittered and gleamed[00:00:53]

Appomattox Chickamauga Vicksburg Bull Run[00:00:57]

Cumberland Gettys burgand then Washington[00:01:02]

Why Are You Marching Son[00:01:06]

In Flanders Fields how proud were they[00:01:10]

Whose forms beneath the poppies lay[00:01:13]

Men who saw Verdun[00:01:16]

And died at the Marne Soissons[00:01:18]

And those who tried the fearful foe at Chateau-Thierry[00:01:21]

Who fought and bled whose hearts grew weary[00:01:25]

But in whose minds one thought kept churning[00:01:29]

That the torch of liberty keep burning[00:01:32]

Why Are You Marching Son[00:01:35]

The planes swarmed in and the rising sun[00:01:37]

Glowed fiercely on the evil done[00:01:40]

To men whose blood runs through our veins[00:01:42]

Men who died and whose remains[00:01:46]

Life forever locked in waters deep[00:01:48]

Now is it right that they should sleep[00:01:51]

While the warm sea laps at a twisted hull[00:01:53]

See the torch of liberty grow dull[00:01:57]

Anzio Cassinoand the Po[00:01:59]

St Mere EgliseLe Mans St Lo[00:02:02]

Gardelegen Buchenwald[00:02:05]

On and on the roll is called[00:02:07]

And why[00:02:09]

Why Are You Marching Son[00:02:12]

Bugles shrilled in the frozen night[00:02:15]

And at first dawn the awful sight[00:02:17]

Of seas of menrow after row[00:02:21]

Left to die on blood-stained snow[00:02:23]

Pusan Pyongyang Suwan Kyongju[00:02:26]

And blood-red ran the swift Yalu[00:02:32]

In South Vietnam the big guns roared[00:02:37]

And once again we fought a war[00:02:40]

To honor a pledge our nation gave[00:02:43]

To help that little country save[00:02:46]

Her people from the certainty[00:02:48]

That she'd be ruled by tyranny[00:02:50]

No matter where the big guns roar[00:02:56]

Our fighting men like those before[00:02:58]

Take the torch we all hold dear[00:03:01]

And face freedom's enemies without fear[00:03:04]

Our fathers died from sea to sea[00:03:07]

And blessed the torch of liberty[00:03:11]

Why Why Are You Marching Son[00:03:13]
