Big, big, big
Big, big, big
Doug, Doug, Doug
Doug, Doug, Doug, Doug MacArthur

He's a tough old guy, Doug MacArthur!
With a strong reply, Doug MacArthur!
He's the one who slapped the Japs
Right down to their size

When he made a stand, Doug MacArthur!
Just the way he planned, Doug MacArthur!
All the world said, "Hip hooray, MacAthur's okay"
He gave them an awful lickin', Doug MacArthur
And he kept his soldiers clickin'

When he trained his gun, Doug MacArthur!
On those rising suns, Doug MacArthur!
They began to flee, yeah man
MacArthur is grand!

One hundred and thirty Americans
are behind you Douglas MacArthur
One hundred and thirty Americans
are praying for you Douglas MacArthur
We're making tanks and more tanks
We're sending Yanks and more Yanks
We're building planes and more planes
Dig in Doug! Dig in old man!
And hold 'em! Hold 'em!
You, Douglas MacArthur
Are showing the American people
What you and your gallant men are made of
God bless you, and your soldiers
General Douglas MacArthur
