THE RED AND GOLD

SEMPER FI! SEMPER FI!
Proudly hold the banner high!
Listen to the cadence of their feet,
Marching to the drummer’s beat.

Proud men marching, four-by-four;
Ready for their ardent chore.
Standing tall, to defend,
Our great country, to the end.

Traditions imbedded in the past;
Figures in bronze, forever cast.
Pride in their country, pride in the Corps;
Honor to serve their country, more.

SEMPER FI! SEMPER FI!
Thunders out the battle cry!
Brave men marching, strong and bold;
Forever honor to “THE RED AND GOLD”!
