Era: All
Momma told Johnny not to go downtown,
Heard the Marine recruiter was hanging' around.
Johnny went downtown anyways,
Wanted to hear what Recruiter had to say.
Recruiter said, Johnny boy watcha wanna be?,
Johnny said I wanna be in Infantry.
So he caught a flight to Vietnam,
There he fought the Viet Cong.
Many he killed by knife by blade,
But God only knows how many lives he saved.
Johnny was bold and Johnny was brave,
Johnny jumped on a hand grenade.
Saved the lives of the men he led,
But before he died this is what he said:
Momma momma don't you cry,
Marine Corp motto Semper Fi!
[Semper Fi is used for short of Semper Fidelis- Always Faithful.]
