Arthur Fields, Oui Oui Marie

Written by George M. Cohan during World War I, recorded by Billy Murray in 1917.

Audio File: Over There.

Johnnie, get your gun, get your gun, get your gun,
Take it on the run, on the run, on the run.
Hear them calling, you and me, every son of liberty.

Hurry right away, no delay, go today,
Make your daddy glad to have had such a lad.
Tell your sweetheart not to pine, to be proud her boy's in line.

Chorus (sung twice)

Over there, over there, send the word, send the word over there
That the Yanks are coming, the Yanks are coming,
The drums rum-tumming ev'rywhere.
So prepare, say a pray'r, send the word, send the word to beware.
We'll be over, we're coming over, and we won't come back
Till it's over, over there.

Johnnie, get your gun, get your gun, get your gun,
Johnnie show the Hun who's a son of a gun.
Hoist the flag and let her fly, Yankee Doodle do or die.

Pack your little kit, show your grit, do your bit.
Yankee to the ranks, from the towns and the tanks.
Make your mother proud of you,
And the old Red, White and Blue.
