Oh, I marched to the battle of New Orleans

At the end of the early British war

The young land started growing

The young blood started flowing

But I ain't marching anymore

For I've killed my share of "injuns" in the thousand different fights

I was there at the little big horn

I heard many men dying

I saw many more lying

But I ain't marching anymore

It's always the old to lead us to the war

It's nalways the y o u n g  w h o  f a l l. . . .

Now look at all we've won with the sabre and the gun

Tell me, is it worth it all?

For I stole california from the Mexican land,

Fought in the bloody civil war

Yes  I  e v e n  k i s s e d  my  b r o t h e r 

And  so  m a n y  o t h e r s 

But I ain't marching anymore

For I marched to the battles of the german trench

In a war that was bound to end all wars

Oh I must habe killed a million men

And now they want me back again

But I ain't marching anymore

For I flew the final mission in the Japanese sky

Lit off the frighty mushroom roar

When I saw the cities burning

I kinda knew that I was learning

That I ain't marching anymore

Now the labor leader's screaming when they close the missile plants

United fruit screams at the  c u b a n  shore

Call it peace or call it treason

Call it love or call it reason,

But I ain't marching anymore....

(repeat once or up to four times.)
