Marine’s Hymn
From the Halls of Montezuma
To the shores of Tripoli
We will fight our country’s battles
In the air, on land and sea
First to fight for right and freedom
And to keep our honor clean
We are proud to claim the title of
UNITED STATES MARINE
Our flag’s unfurled to every breeze
From dawn to setting sun
We have fought in every clime and place
Where we could take a gun
In the snow of far off northern lands
And in sunny tropic scenes
You will find us always on the job
The UNITED STATE MARINES
Here’s health to you and to our
corps
Which we are proud to serve
In many a strife we’ve fought for life
And never lost our nerve
If the Army and the Navy
Ever look on Heaven’s scenes
They will find the streets are guarded by
UNITED STATES MARINES
