Chorus
Tenors: Rumble of war in the air better watch out
(repeat x8 to 'with a man') then change to:
Never know when they're gonna send the marines in (x2)
He's gone, he's gone and sent in
Never know when they're gonna send the marines in (x2)
Sopranos:
Watch out! Watch out! There's a rumble of war in the air
Watch out! I think you better watch out,
There's a rumble of war in the air and with a man like that you never know
Where or when he's gone, he's gone and sent in the marines again
Verse 1
Some are small and frightened, some well seasoned men
Some are rightly scared to death and some are feeling the joy of seeing
blood again.
I think you better …. (to chorus)
Verse 2 - Tenors sing words in italic
Sop: Casualties seldom counted are the ones the guns invade
The ones who work the land, the ones who love
the land,
the ones who work the land, the ones who love
the land,
the ones work the land, the ones who love
the land
where dreams of peace are made, I think you better (to chorus

Sop: Watch out! (x5, last one shouted)
Tenors: Rumble of war in the air better watch out (repeat
