Everywhere
作词:Albert Sidney Griffin, Greg Trooper
‽Dig in, boys, for an extended stay†Those were the final orders to come down that day Waiting to be saved in the Philippines You'll wait forever for the young Marines
Now I believe to be here is right But I have to say that I'm scared tonight Crouching in this hole with a mouth full of sand What comes first, the country or the man?
Look at those slanted eyes Coming up over the hill Catching us by surprise It's time to kill or to be killed
Over here, over there It's the same everywhere A boy cries out for his mama Before he dies for his home

They said, ‽Look at his slanted eyes He's guilty as guilty can be†Sent here as enemy spies To sabotage the Land of the Free
Over here, over there It's the same everywhere A boy cries out for his mama Before he dies for his home
I never got home, my platoon was never saved That little foxhole became my island grave Lee got out of jail but a prisoner he remained 'Til he ended his own life to lose that ball and chain
And they said, ‽Oh, Little Slanted Eyes Can't you forgive and forget?' And he said, ‽Oh, Mr. Friendly Ghost Can you catch water in a net?â€
Over here, over there It's the same everywhere A boy cries out for his mama Before he dies for his home
A boy cries out for his mama Before he dies for his home
