Phil Ochs Miscellaneous I Ain't Marching Anymore I Ain't Marching Anymore Phil Ochs Written by Phil Ochs and Bob Gibson Oh, I marched to the battle of New Orleans At the end of the early British war The young land started growin' The young blood started flowin' But I ain't a-marchin' anymore But I've killed my share of Injuns In a thousand different fights I was there at the Little Big Horn I saw many men lyin' I saw many more dyin' But I ain't a-marchin' anymore CHORUS It's always the old to lead us to the war Always the young to fall Now look at all we've won with the saber and the gun Tell me, is it worth it all For I stole California from the Mexican land Fought in the bloody Civil War Yes I even killed my brothers And so many others But I ain't a-marchin' anymore For I marched to the battles of the German trench In a war that was bound to end all wars Oh, I must have killed a million men And now they want me back again But I ain't a-marchin' anymore CHORUS For I flew the final mission in the Japanese sky Set off the mighty mushroom roar When I saw the cities burnin' I knew that I was learnin' That I ain't a-marchin' anymore Now the labor leader's screamin' when they close the missile plants United Fruit screams at the Cuban shore Call it "Peace" or call it "Treason" Call it "Love" or call it "Reason" But I ain't a-marchin' any more. No, I ain't a-marchin' any more |
