Lyrics

I was sitting in a bar boozing and losing Some jackoff walks up cruising for a bruising Popping off and making my old re neck red. He asked my girl if she'd like to dance He had three buddies so i had no chance I looked around the room for a friend And I saw Fred A quick evaluation of the situation We entered into a conversation That last the better part of the next two songs Now I didn't say and they didn't ask but Fred did two tours over in Iraq And Son, it was over before it was even on. Call a Marine instead of 911 They're built to improvise, adapt, and overcome. When your in knee deep and your up shit's creek You've tried everything Tell you what you do Call a Marine Now my sisters husband didn't love her no more And he runned off with a skinny little whore And left her sitting round the house with a couple of kids. She just lays around in that mumu gown Old girl put on about thirty five pounds And one day I went over to her house And I said hey Sis if you wanna fix what troubles you Just ease down to VFW And you'll walk through the door and turn those boys heads For most of those boys its been a while, Just show a little leg and that Marlboro smile And if that don't work out for ya girl ask for Fred Call a Marine instead of 911 Theyre built to improvise, adapt, and overcome When your in knee deep and your up shits creek You've tried everything Tell you what you do Call a Marine Some douchebag rises up and overthrows his government Diplomacy aint working and ammos all been spent The world is in a crises and the media a circus I'll tell you what to do when it goes from bad to worse Call a Marine instead of 911 They're built to improvise, adapt, and overcome When your in knee deep and your up shits creek You've tried everything Tell you what you do Call a Marine Tell you what to do baby You can call Call a marine Yeah yeah
