I Ain't Marching Anymore
2
Phil Ochs
3
Written by Phil Ochs and Bob Gibson
4
Oh, I marched to the battle of New Orleans
5
At the end of the early British war
6
The young land started growin'
7
The young blood started flowin'
8
But I ain't a-marchin' anymore
9
But I've killed my share of Injuns
10
In a thousand different fights
11
I was there at the Little Big Horn
12
I saw many men lyin'
13
I saw many more dyin'
14
But I ain't a-marchin' anymore
15
CHORUS
16
It's always the old to lead us to the war
17
Always the young to fall
18
Now look at all we've won with the saber and the gun
19
Tell me, is it worth it all
20
For I stole California from the Mexican land
21
Fought in the bloody Civil War
22
Yes I even killed my brothers
23
And so many others
24
But I ain't a-marchin' anymore
25
For I marched to the battles of the German trench
26
In a war that was bound to end all wars
27
Oh, I must have killed a million men
28
And now they want me back again
29
But I ain't a-marchin' anymore
30
CHORUS
31
For I flew the final mission in the Japanese sky
32
Set off the mighty mushroom roar
33
When I saw the cities burnin'
34
I knew that I was learnin'
35
That I ain't a-marchin' anymore
36
Now the labor leader's screamin' when they close the missile plants
37
United Fruit screams at the Cuban shore
38
Call it "Peace" or call it "Treason"
39
Call it "Love" or call it "Reason"
40
But I ain't a-marchin' any more.
41
No, I ain't a-marchin' any more
