I was sittin’ in a bar, boozin’ and losin’
|
And some jackoff walks up cruisin’ for a bruisin’
|
Poppin’ off and makin’ my whole redneck red
|
He asked my girl if she’d like to dance
|
He had three buddies so I had no chance
|
I looked around the room for a friend and I saw Fred
|
A quick evaluation of the situation
|
And we entered into a conversation
|
It seemed to last the better part of the next two songs
|
Now I didn’t say and they didn’t ask
|
But Fred did two tours over in Iraq
|
And, son, it was over before it was even on.
|
|
Call a Marine
|
Instead of 911
|
They’re built to improvise, adapt and overcome
|
When you’re in knee deep and you’re up shit’s creek
|
And you’ve tried everything
|
Tell you what you do
|
Call a Marine!
|
|
Now my sister’s husband didn’t love her no more
|
And he runned off with a skinny little whore
|
And left her sittin’ around the house with a couple of kids
|
She just lays around in that muumuu gown
|
Old girl put on about 35 pounds
|
One day I went over to her house and I said, “Hey, sis”
|
If you wanna fix what troubles you
|
Just ease down to the VFW
|
And you’ll walk through the door and turns those boys’ heads
|
For most of those boys it’s been awhile
|
Just show a little leg and that Marlboro smile
|
And if that don’t work out for you, girl, ask for Fred.
|
|
Call a Marine
|
Instead of 911
|
They’re built to improvise, adapt and overcome
|
If you’re in knee deep and you’re up shit’s creek
|
You’ve tried everything
|
Tell you what you do
|
Call a Marine!
|
|
Some douche bag rises up and overthrows his government
|
Diplomacy ain’t workin’ and the ammos all been spent
|
The world is in a crisis and the media’s a curse
|
I’ll tell you what to do
|
When it goes from bad to worse
|
|
Call a Marine
|
Instead of 911
|
They’re built to improvise, adapt and overcome
|
When you’re in knee deep and you’re up shit’s creek
|
And you’ve tried everything
|
Tell you what you do
|
Call a Marine!
|
|
Tell you what to do, baby
|
You can call...
|
Call a Marine!
|
Yeah! Yeah!
