Dolly<br>

I know what I stand for! Important things! Like...like...<br>

Motherhood,<br>

America,<br>

And a hot lunch for orphans<br>

Take off your hat, sir<br>

While your country's flag is passing<br>

Do you see him<br>

On the hill at Gettysburg<br>

'Neath that great triumphal arch?<br>

If you see him as he's trampling through the grapes of wrath<br>

Stand up and march, march, march!<br>

<br>

Mrs. Molloy<br>

I stand for motherhood,<br>

America,<br>

And a hot lunch for orphans<br>

Take off your hat, sir<br>

There's a tear-stained eagle passing<br>

Do you see him<br>

On the field at Waterloo<br>

'Neath that great triumphal arch?<br>

<br>

Mrs. Molloy & Mianie<br>

If you hear him singing Dixie in the sugar cane<br>

Stand up and march, march, march!<br>

<br>

(The ladies are singing while Dolly is singing)<br>

<br>

I stand for motherhood,<br>

America,<br>

And a hot lunch for orphans<br>

Take off your hat, sir<br>

While your country's<br>

Flag is passing<br>

Do you see him<br>

On the field at Waterloo<br>

'Neath that great triumphal arch<br>

If you see him as he's<br>

Trampling through the<br>

Grapes of wrath<br>

<br>

Dolly<br>

Alamo!<br>

Remember the Alamo!<br>

I regret that I've one<br>

Life to give for my<br>

Country<br>

In the words of Lincoln<br>

One if by land<br>

And two if by sea<br>

Yes Dad I chopped<br>

That cherry tree down<br>

<br>

Dolly, Mrs. Molloy, & Minnie<br>

Stand up and march march march<br>

O, Stonewall Jackson<br>

Glory, glory, hallelujah<br>

<br>

Mrs. Molloy<br>

Four score and seven years ago!<br>

<br>

All<br>

March, March, March<br>

<br>

Dolly<br>

Damn the torpedoes, full speed ahead!<br>

<br>

All<br>

March, March, March!<br>

<br>
