Rodgers and Hart - Babes in Arms lyrics

[VALENTINE] They call us babes in arms But we are babes in armor They laugh at babes in arms But we'll be laughing far more On city streets and farms There'll be a rising war cry Youth will arrive Let them know you're alive! Make it your cry! [VALENTINE, MARSHALL, PETER, GUS, IVOR, AND IRVING] They call us babes in arms They think they must direct us But if we're babes in arms We'll make 'em all respect us Why have we got our arms? What have we got our sight for? Play day is done There's a place in the sun We must fight for! So babes in arms, to arms! [BILLIE, ROSE, AND DOLORES] They call us babes in arms But we are babes in armor They laugh at babes in arms But we'll be laughing far more On city streets and farms There'll be a rising war cry Youth will arrive Let them know you're alive! Make it your cry! [ALL] They call us babes in arms They think they must direct us But if we're babes in arms We'll make 'em all respect us Why have we got our arms? What have we got our sight for? Play day is done There's a place in the sun We must fight for! So babes in arms, to arms!
