Brave Son of America Lyrics


His name would always be, always be recorded in history
His name would always be, always be recorded in history
It gives me inspiration to sing, his heroic stand in the Phillipines
No man can be braver than General MacArthur, the Son of AmericaWith his traditional warriors at his side, he gave the Japanese the first suprise,
For when they called on him to surrender, "I am an American" was his answer,
"And in the name of democracy, I will die for freedom and liberty",
They don't come no braver than General MacArthur, the Son of AmericaLet us go back in past history, go think George Washington and General Lee,
Hmm even hailin' Patrick Henry, Abe Lincholn - emancipator in slavery
But we'll read of MacArthur when he's gone, for he's a genius if one was ever born
They don't come no braver than General MacArthur, the Son of America.When you hear me singing my characteristic song, from the book of editions that last so long,
This vocabulary that is list in me, it is owing to my high class propensity,
I am not versed in psychology, I'm a man who can sing intelligently,
I say they come no braver than General MacArthur, the Son of America
With the stars and stripes laying at his side, for this flag he intend to die,
MacArthur, the man with the heart of steel, to the invading Japs he wouldn't never yield,
He told the Japanese for a fact, "I'm leaving Corregidor, but I'm coming back"
They don't come no braver than General MacArthur, the Son of America.
