The marines have landed on the shores of Santo
Domingo.
The fishermen sweat, they're pausing at their
nets, the day's a-burning
As the warships sway and thunder in the bay, loud
the morning.
But the boy on the shore is throwing pebbles no
more, he runs a-warning
That the the marines have landed on the shores of
Santo Domingo.
The streets are still, there's silence in the
hills, the town is sleeping
And the farmers yawn in the grey silver dawn, the
fields they're keeping
As the first troops land and step into the sand,
the flags are weaving.
The marines have landed on the shores of Santo
Domingo.
The unsmiling sun is shining down upon the
singing soldiers
In the cloud dust whirl they whistle at the
girls, they're getting bolder
The old women sigh, think of memories gone by,
they shrug their shoulders.
The marines have landed on the shores of Santo
Domingo.
Ready for the tricks, their bayonets are fixed,
now they are rolling
And the tanks make tracks past the trembling
shacks where fear is unfolding
All the young wives afraid, turn their backs on
the parade
with babes they're holding
The marines have landed on the shores of Santo
Domingo
A bullet craks the sound, the soldiers hit the
ground, the sniper is callin'
So they open their guns, a thousand to one, no
sense in stalling
He clutches at his head and totters on the edge,
look how he's falling
The marines have landed on the shores of Santo
Domingo
In the red plaza square, The crowds come to
stare, the heat is leaning(?)
And the eyes of the dead are turning every head
to the widows screaming
The soldiers make a bid, giving candy to the
kids, their teeth are gleaming
The marines have landed on the shores of Santo
Domingo
Up and down the coad, the generals drink a toast,
the wheel is spinning
And the cowards and the whores are peeking
through the doors
to see who's winning
But the traitors will pretend that it's getting
near the end,
when it's beginning
The marines have landed on the shores of Santo
Domingo
The crabs are crazy, they scuttle back and forth,
the sand is burning
And the fish take flight and scatter from the
sight, their courses turning
As the seagulls rest on the cold cannon nest, the
sea is churning
The marines have landed on the shores of Santo
Domingo
