Toby Keith - Call A Marine lyrics
[Toby Keith - Call A Marine lyrics]
I was sittin' in a bar, boozin' and losin'
And some jackoff walks up
Cruisin' for a bruisin'
Poppin' off and makin' my whole redneck 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
And we entered into a conversation
It seemed to 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 you're in knee deep and
You're up shit's creek
And you've tried everything
Tell you what you do call a Marine!
Now my sister's husband didn't
Love her no more
And he runned off with a skinny little whore
And left her sittin' around the house
With a couple of kids
She just lays around in that muumuu gown
Old girl put on about 35 pounds
One day I went over to her
House and I said, "Hey, sis"
If you wanna fix what troubles you
Just ease down to the VFW
And you'll walk through the door
And turns those boys' heads
For most of those boys it's been awhile
Just show a little leg
And that Marlboro smile
And if that don't work out for you, girl
Ask for Fred
Call a Marine instead of 911
They're built to improvise
Adapt and overcome
If you're in knee deep and
You're up shit's creek
You've tried everything tell you what you do
Call a Marine!
Some douche bag rises up
And overthrows his government
Diplomacy ain't workin' and the
Ammos all been spent
The world is in a crisis
And the media's a curse
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 you're in knee deep and
You're up shit's creek
And 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!
And some jackoff walks up
Cruisin' for a bruisin'
Poppin' off and makin' my whole redneck 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
And we entered into a conversation
It seemed to 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 you're in knee deep and
You're up shit's creek
And you've tried everything
Tell you what you do call a Marine!
Now my sister's husband didn't

And he runned off with a skinny little whore
And left her sittin' around the house
