Stand Navy out to sea,

Fight our Battle Cry;

We'll never change our course,

So vicious foes steer shy-y-y-y.

Roll out the TNT,

Anchors Aweigh.

Sail on to Victory

And sink their bones to Davy Jones, Hooray!

Anchors Aweigh, my boys,

Anchors Aweigh.

Farewell to foreign shores,

We sail at break of day-ay-ay-ay.

Through our last night ashore,

Drink to the foam,

Until we meet once more,

Here's wishing you a happy voyage home.

Blue of the Mighty Deep;

Gold of God's great sun.

Let these colors be

Till all of time be done, done, done, done.

On seven seas we learn

Navy's stern call;

Faith, courage, service true,

With honor, over honor, over all.

Unknown author circa mid-1800's. Oldest official song in the United States Armed Forces.

From the Halls of Montezuma

To the shores of Tripoli;

We fight our country's battles

In the air, on land, and sea;

First to fight for right and freedom

And to keep our honor clean;

We are proud to claim the title

Of United States Marine.

Our flag's unfurled to every breeze

From dawn to setting sun;

We have fought in every clime and place

Where we could take a gun;

In the snow of far-off Northern lands

And in sunny tropic scenes,

You will find us always on the job

The Unites States Marines.

Here's health to you and to our Corps

Which we are proud to serve;

In many strife we've fought for life

And never lost our nerve.

If the Army and the Navy

Ever look on Heaven's scenes,

They will find the streets are guarded

By United States Marines.

Francis Scott Key 1814

O say can you see, by the dawn's early light,

What so proudly we hail'd at the twilight's last gleaming,

Whose broad stripes and bright stars through the perilous fight,

O'er the ramparts we watch'd, were so gallantly streaming?

And the rocket's red glare, the bomb bursting in air,

Gave proof through the night that our flag was still there,

O say does that star spangled banner yet wave

O'er the land of the free and the home of the brave?

I am a United States Sailor.

I will support and defend the Constitution of the United States of America and I will obey the orders of those appointed over me.

I represent the fighting spirit of the Navy and those who have gone before me to defend freedom and democracy around the world.

I proudly serve my country's Navy combat team with honor, courage and commitment.

I am committed to excellence and the fair treatment of all.
