Air Force was just too easy
What I need was a little bit more
I need a life that is hardcore
Parris Island where it all began
A little rock with lots of sand
Can't forget about Hollywood
San Diego, and it′s all good
Keeps me runnin' from dusk to dawn
Tell me now what you're waitin′ for
Come on now, I′m gonna sing you some more
1st Phase you broke me down
2nd Phase started to come around
3rd Phase I was lean and mean
Graduation standin' tall in my green
To anybody who asks me why
Here′s the deal, here's my reply:
"I′ll be a Marine until the day I die"
"Motivated and SEMPER FI"
Tell me now what you're waitin′ for
Listen up I'm gonna sing you some more
Tun Tavern to the Belleau Woods
We're makin′ history so it′s understood
Kickin' butt just everywhere
Frozen Chosin to Ho Chi Minh
I think it′s time that we do it again
I think it's time that we get it done
Tell me now what you′re waitin' for
