Lyrics | Liberty Bond Magee Verse: A friend of mine named Mike McGee, was wed a year last May, And when the U.S.A., said he must go away, He said my country’s calling me to go I’m simply wild, When patriotic Wifie said “What shall we name the child?” Refrain: So they christened the baby Chateau Thierry, Verdun, K. of C. Hoover, Pershing, Haig, Clemenceau, Belgium, Foch, Paree, also Lafayette, Red Cross, Y.M.C.A., Parlez-vous y pres. Wilson, Roye, at-a-boy, Liberty Bond McGee. Verse: So Mike McGee sailed far away and fought for Uncle Sam, Got Fritzie in a jam, he didn’t give a d--, He heard from wifie one fine day, it filled his hear with joy, The letter said I love you Mike you ought to see the boy.
