Motherhood

Lyrics

I stand for motherhood
 America, and a hot lunch for orphans
 Take off your hat, sir
 Betsy Ross's flag is passing
 Do you see him on the hill at Gettysburg
 'Neath that great triumphal arch?
 If you see him as he's trampling through the grapes of wrath
 Stand up and march
 March
 March
 I stand for motherhood
 America, and a hot lunch for orphans
 Take off your hat, sir
 There's a tear-stained eagle passing
 Do you see him on the bridge at Waterloo
 'Neath that great triumphal arch?
 If you hear him singing Dixie in the sugar cane
 Stand up and march
 March
 March
 I stand for motherhood, America (Alamo, remember the)
 And a hot lunch for orphans (Alamo, oh)
 Take off your hat, sir (I regret that I've one life)
 Betsy Ross's flag is passing (To give for my country)
 Do you see him on the hill at Gettysburg (In the words of Lincoln one if by land)
 'Neath that great triumphal arch? (Yes, Dad I chopped that cherry tree down!)
 (O, Stonewall Jackson)
 If you see him as he's trampling through the grapes of wrath (Glory, glory, hallelujah)
 Stand up and march
 March
 Four-score and seven years ago!
 March, march
 March
 To form a more perfect union!
 March, march
 Damn the torpedos, full speed ahead!
 March, march
 March!
