Lyrics | 2014‐12996‐150 Get Up, Get Out, and Go Verse: Your country’s calling you, There’s a duty you should do. I’m not fooling, war time’s ruling, Think of all the boys who’ve gone before. You may not like the strife, You may not like the life. If you want peace, here’s how to stop the war. Refrain: Get up! Get out! And go! For here’s your one big chance to show You love your Uncle Sam And you’re a real man through and through. It’s up to you to make mother proud. So grab a gun and join the crowd To save the stars and stripes forever. Get up! Get out! And Go! Verse: They fought for Liberty On the land and on the sea. No one’s fooled us, no one’s ruled us. All the world is watching what we’ll do. We’ll show them we are right, We’ll show them we can fight. And all of us have got our bit to do. Refrain |
