In Eighteen Hundred-One
The Revolution had been won,
And Uncle Sam's favorite son
Had a job he needed done;
Which brought Jack to a lady
Both beauiful and smart
Who found his mix intriguing
A scoundrel with a heart!
From the halls of Montezuma
To the shores of Tripoli
There was never a leatherneck braver
A daring dragoon as he
He'll halt the bold advance
Of Napoleon's attack
There ain't a French or pirate
rogue
Who don't know Jack!
From the halls of Montezuma
To the shores of Tripoli
Sail around the bloody world
To defend democracy,
And when you need a fighting man
To trust and watch your back,
Just ask the bloke right next to
you.
Damn right! It's Jack!
