(Parody of John Brown’s Body, by William Weston Patton)
John Browning’s cartridge fires a-smouldering from the breech,
John Browning’s cartridge fires a-smouldering from the breech,
And his guns keep firing on.
Chorus:
Glory, glory, shoot another one,
Glory, glory, shoot another one,
And his guns keep firing on.
His guns have gone to Africa, to put vile buggers down,
His guns have gone to Asia, and have put vile buggers down,
His guns have gone to Europe, and have put vile buggers down,
And his guns keep firing on.
Chorus:
John Browning’s rifles have put tyrants in their place,
John Browning’s rifles have put tyrants in their place,
And his guns keep firing on.
Chorus:
John Browning’s guns have fired so that nations might be free,
John Browning’s guns have fired so that nations might be free,
And his guns keep firing on.
Chorus:
The angels up in Heaven now are looking kindly down,
As devils down in Hell below, are sent new clientele,
And his guns keep firing on.
Chorus:
John Browning's guns fought on BOTH sides of WWII ...
