Mark them well from your curbstone—
They've been men of the Out 'o Doors!
They've lived in the sand by the Rio Grande,
Where the viscous vulture soars!
We Shallow Skins, Shrimps, We Flatchcsts.
Well may we cheer—You and 1!
God thanks not a one had to look in a gun.
Vet they went out to flight—and to die!
Look well at those bronzed, fearless faces!

Belonged to that big sergeant there;

But, say, do you think it's been fair?
So cowards can live in their smugness.
Should brave men go out —and to die? ,
Or might it be fit that each man do his bit
To keep the Old Flag waving high!
