Marine Corps Hymn

From the halls of montezuma
To the shores of tripoli;
We fight our country's 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 marine.

Our flag's unfurled to every breeze
From dawn to setting sun;
We have fought in ev'ry clime and place
Where we could take a gun;
In the snow of far-off northern lands
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've fought for life
And never lost our nerve;
If the army and the navy
Ever look on heaven's scenes;
They will find the streets are guarded
By united states marines.
