From the halls
of Montezuma
To the shores
of Tripoli
We will fight
our country's battles
On the land
and on the sea
First to fight
for right and freedom
And to keep
our honor clean
We are proud
to claim the title
of United States Marines
Our flag's unfurled
to every breeze
From the dawn
to setting sun
We have fought
in ev'ry clime and place
Where we could
take a gun
In the snow
of far-off northern lands
And the sunny
tropic scenes
We will fight as
always on the job
The United States Marines
