Berlin Irving This Is The Army (1942) How About A Cheer For The Navy? [AABA chorus:] The Army this, the Army that Is all we heard from where we sat Now how about a cheer for the Navy? The Army's great, the Army's tough But don't you think we've heard enough? So how about a cheer for the Navy? We know that Mister Stimson Is solid as the rocks But how about an orchid For Secretary Knox? The Army may be in the groove But Walter Winchell won't approve Unless you give a cheer for the Navy [ABAC chorus:] Hip hip hooray We haven't got long to stay So how about one bouquet For the Navy? One word of praise that'd fall from your lips One cheer and then we'll go back to our ships Hip hip hooray The Army has had its say You're letting them get away With the gravy Just let them know That an Army show Could never be a hit without the Navy [2nd AABA chorus] The Army's what you may prefer But in the social register Is where you'll have to look for the Navy If you would like to touch the gilt Of Astor or a Vanderbilt You'll have to come around to the Navy The show was in the alley It simply wouldn't do Until the big finale With Navy white and blue The Army sails across the foam The Navy always bring them home So how about a cheer for the Navy? [coda:] Give a cheer, give a cheer, give a cheer, give a cheer For the Navy Just make it clear That a rousing cheer Is very much in order for the N-A-V-Y The Navy Navy |
