Uncle Sam And Big John Bull
[Chorus]
Oh, they ain't a-gonna fight
They ain't a-gonna fight
They ain't a-gonna fight no more
Uncle Sam and Big John Bull
They ain't a-gonna fight no more
[Verse 1]
The first time that they ever fought was over a load o' tea
John said, "Sam, if you drink that stuff, you gotta pay a tax to me"
Sam said, "John, you're a little bit high, it don't seem fair to me"
So, he sent some boys out late one night
And they dumped it in the sea
[Chorus]
Oh, they ain't a-gonna fight
They ain't a-gonna fight
They ain't a-gonna fight no more
Uncle Sam and Big John Bull
They ain't a-gonna fight no more
[Verse 2]
John said, "Sam, who's that old skinny boy from Tennessee?
You sent him down to New Orleans and he whip the pants off me
Still I believe with all my might I could have turned the tide
If that old pirate Jean Lafitte was fightin' on my side"
[Chorus]
Oh, they ain't a-gonna fight
They ain't a-gonna fight
They ain't a-gonna fight no more
Uncle Sam and Big John Bull
They ain't a-gonna fight no more
[Verse 3]
Since they've been standin' back-to-back
They've done quite well, it's true
They've whipped the Kaiser and the Fuhrer, just to name a few
That's why we stand in a big free land, the skies o' grey are blue
Uncle Sam and Big John Bull, our hats are off to you
[Chorus]
Oh, they ain't a-gonna fight
They ain't a-gonna fight
They ain't a-gonna fight no more
Uncle Sam and Big John Bull
They ain't a-gonna fight no more
[Chorus]
Oh, they ain't a-gonna fight
They ain't a-gonna fight
They ain't a-gonna fight no more
Uncle Sam and Big John Bull
Ain't gonna fight no more
