Arms For The Love Of America
Composer(s): Irving Berlin
Performer(s): Big Band Patrol



On land and on the sea and in the air
We've gotta be there, we've gotta be there
America is sounding her alarm
We've gotta have arms, we've gotta have arms

Arms for the love of America!
They speak in a foreign land, with weapons in every hand
Whatever they try, we've gotta reply
In language that they understand

Arms for the love of America!
And for the love of every mother's son
Who's depending on the work that must be done
By the man behind the man behind the gun

They're in the camps and in the training schools 
Now give 'em the tools, they've gotta have tools
We called them from the factories and the farms
Now give 'em the arms, they've gotta have arms

We've gotta get in the race and work at a lively pace
They say over here, we've nothing to fear 
But let's get ready just in case
Arms for the love of America!

Oh the fight for freedom can be lost or won
By the man behind the man behind the gun

Arms for the love of America!
For the love of America
Arms!
