In eighteen-hundred-one the Revolution had been won

And Uncle Sams favorite son had a job he needed done

Which brought Jack to a lady, both beautiful and smart

Who found his mix intriguing; a scoundrel with a heart!

Slide up to the 5th fret on the B string then play the 5th fret on the high E (bar

them both and play)

From the halls of Montezuma to the shores of Tripoli

There was never a leatherneck braver, a Daring Dragoon is he

He'll halt the bold advance of Napoleon’s attack

There aint a French or pirate rogue who don't... know Jack!

From the halls of Montezuma to the shores of Tripoli

Sailing round the bloody world to defend democracy

And when ya need a fighting man ya trust to watch yer back

Just ask the bloke right next ta ya – Damn right – it’s

Jack!
