Your Brother was home when you left ( You're right!)
The Dog was home when you left ( You're Right!)
The Cat was home when you left ( You're Right!)

To join the mar-ines ( To Join the mar-ines!)
[Verse 2]
The Day I left ( The day I left!)
My Mama cried ( My mama cried)
She thought that I ( She thought that I!)
Would surely die ( Would surely die!)
I Left my Wife ( I left my Wife!)
Standing at the door ( Standing at the door)!
She knew that I'll ( She knew that I'll!)
Die at war ( Die at war!)
I left my Son ( I left my Son!)
Playin' in the yard ( Playin' in the yard!)
Seeing Daddy Leave ( Seeing Daddy Leave!)
Made him cry so hard ( Made him cry so hard!)
The Day I left ( The Day I left!)
I Shook My Daddy's hand ( I Shook my Daddy's hand!)
He said that I ( He said that I!)
Had Become a Man (Had Become a Man!)
