Let's Help The
Boys Win

Uncle Sam is calling for our boys
today,
And we must help in every way;
To conquer Hitler, who thinks
he's boss,
And show Japan that she is lost.
First, we must see them off with
a smile,
Tho they may not be back for
quiet awhile
We won't let them see us shed a
tear,
Even if our hearts are clutched
with fear.
Then we'll write letters full of
news,
"Say, Pas breaking a new pair
of mules;
Sally, the heifer, has twin calves,
And Old Joe's selling that cure-all
salve."
Well stay at home, their socks to
knit,
And make warm sweaters just to
fit;
Remember it's us for whom they
fight,
And for them we'll work both day
and night.
Well cut out all luxury, even
bonbons,
And with that money, buy de-
tense bonds;
Some to the Red Cross, we'll give
then,
For the Good Old America
We'll got to win!
So come on girls, let's do our bit,
Well help whip Hitler and the
japanese yet;
Tho our jobs be great or small,
We will do them we'll or not at
all.
And here's to America, long may
she stand,
Let us All help to make it bet
ter land;
And by the help of God it shall
always be,
THE HOME OF THE BRAVE
AND LAND OF THE FREE!
