It is time that with zealous devotion,

We saw to the Navy for thee.

If tyrants thou still wouldst make tremble,

Thou needest some armour-clads new,

Or else—it is vain to dissemble—

It’s all up with the Red, White, and Blue.

It’s all up with the Red, White, and Blue,

It’s all up with the Red, White, and Blue;

It is useless to longer dissemble,

’Tis all up with the Red, White, and Blue.
