Subject: RE: Need Lyrics for 'Over There' by Chic Floyd?
Don't know about Chic Floyd but here's this version..
OVER THERE Recorded by: The Merrill Staton Choir Writer: G. M. Cohan
Johnny get your gun Get your gun, get your gun Take it on the run On the run, on the run Hear them calling you and me Every son of liberty Hurry right away, don't delay, go today Make your daddy glad to have had such a lad Tell your sweetheart not to pine To be proud her boy's in line
Over There, Over There Send the word, send the word, Over There That the Yanks are coming The Yanks are coming They're drum, drum, drummin' ev'rywhere
So prepare, Over There Say a prayer, send the word Send the word to beware We'll be over, we're comin' over And we won't be back Till it's over, Over There
Oh, the the Yanks are coming The Yanks are coming They're drum, drum, drummin' everywhere
We'll be over, we're comin' over And we won't come back Till it's over, Over There
