Mama, Mama, cant you see?
(Mama, Mama, cant you see?)
What this Corps has done for me?
(What this Corps has done for me?)
Put me in a barber's chair
(Put me in a barber's chair)
Snip, snap and I had no hair
(Snip, snap and I had no hair)
And if I die in a combat zone
(And if I die in a combat zone)
Box me up and ship me home!
(Box me up and ship me home!)
Put me in a set of Dress Blues
(Put me in a set of Dress Blues)
Comb my hair and shine my shoes.
(Comb my hair and shine my shoes.)
Pin my medals upon my chest.
(Pin my medals upon my chest.)
Tell my Mama I did my best
(Tell my Mama I did my best)
Mama, Mama dont you cry
(Mama, Mama dont you cry)
Marine Corps motto is "Do or Die!"
(Marine Corps motto is "Do or Die!")
Say, left, right, left
(Left, right, left)
Left, right, left
(Left, right, left)
Low, right, left
(Low, right, left)
Lefty, right, low
