We go marching down the road, two by two.
One gets shot and we don't cry till we are safe in our bunks.
My friends and I have another long day ahead of us.
We go marching down the road, two by two again.
Luckily none of us are shot today.
No tears on our pillows today.
My friends and I rest and think of the day that will come again.
Just another group of American soldiers.
My friends and I.
