Feb 26th 1942 New York


Doug, Doug, Doug, Doug Doug!
Doug, Doug, Doug, Doug Doug!
Doug MacArthur!

He's the tough old guy
With the strong reply;
He's the one who slapped the Japs
Right out of the sky!
When he made his stand,
Just the way he planned,
All the world said "Hip hurray!
MacArther's okay!".

He gave them an awful lickin',
And he kept his soldiers tickin'!

When he trained his gun
On the Rising Sun,
They began to flee;
Yea man,
MacArthur is grand!

He gave 'em a lickin',
Doug, Doug, Doug, Doug,
And he kept his soldiers tickin'!
They're the fightin' Yanks, the fightin' Yanks!

When he trained his gun
On the Rising Sun,
They began to flee;
Yea man,
MacArthur,
General Douglas MacArthur - is grand!
