I am a Marine, I stand tall and proud

This I say, to my enemies out loud!

I serve my country, where she needs me

The Heart of the corps, is its fidelity

We are the best, at what we do

Which my friend, is protecting you

We fight for freedom, and our flag

This is a fact, not just brag

We've been called leathernecks and jarhead too

We're first to be called, when there's fighting to do

We're known as... lean, green, fighting machines

But, I prefer... The few, the proud, a U.S. MARINE

*****************

Once a Marine, always a Marine-Simper Fi

Dedicated to all Marines, past, present & future
