[00:00:00] Semper Fi (Live) - Peter，Paul & Mary

[00:00:01] Written by：John Gorka

[00:00:13] My father met eleanor roosevelt in 1945

[00:00:24] The war was finally over then

[00:00:31] And they were still alive

[00:00:37] Her husband was the president

[00:00:43] 'Til he ran out of time

[00:00:49] Her Franklin D. was history

[00:00:55] And they put him on the dime

[00:01:01] My father joined the leathernecks

[00:01:07] To stay out of the mine

[00:01:12] The new marine was just sixteen in 1939

[00:01:24] There were medals and malaria

[00:01:31] The south pacific war

[00:01:36] Through jungles that were paradise

[00:01:42] And were paradise no more

[00:01:48] Soldiers fight and soldiers die

[00:01:55] Soldiers live to wonder why

[00:02:00] Semper fi fe-fo-fum

[00:02:06] Look out peacetime here we come

[00:02:23] Some of the men who did survive

[00:02:28] Were not the lucky ones

[00:02:34] War is only good for those

[00:02:39] Who make and sell the guns

[00:02:45] My father lay recovering

[00:02:51] The hurt was all inside

[00:02:57] Sometimes the wounds that never heal

[00:03:03] Are the easiest to hide

[00:03:20] When eleanor came bearing gifts

[00:03:27] To San Francisco bay

[00:03:32] She gave my dad a blanket

[00:03:37] In the hospital that day

[00:03:45] That blanket meant a lot to him

[00:03:51] My mother has it still

[00:03:57] Some forget the kindnesses

[00:04:03] That others never will

[00:04:08] Soldiers fight and soldiers die

[00:04:14] Soldiers live to wonder why

[00:04:20] Semper fi fe-fo-fum

[00:04:26] Look out peacetime here we come
