Babes in Arms Lyrics by Jack Cassidy (Actor), Babes in Arms Ensemble (1951)

Babes in Arms (1951 Studio Cast Recording)

1952

[VAL]
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 hear a rising war cry
Youth will arrive
Let them know you're alive
Make it your cry!
[VAL & ENSEMBLE, spoken]
They call us babes in arms (Babes in arms)
They think they must direct us (Direct us)
But if we're babes in arms (Babes in arms)
We'll make them all respect us (Respect us)
Why have we got our arms?
What have we got our sight for?
Play day is done
Wе've a place in the sun
Wе must fight for
So babes in arms, to arms!
[Dance break.]
[ENSEMBLE]
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
[VAL]
On city streets and farms
There'll be a rising war cry
[VAL & ENSEMBLE]
Youth will arrive
Let them know you're alive
Make it your cry!
[ENSEMBLE]
They call us babes in arms
They think they must direct us
But if we're babes in arms
We'll make them all respect us
[VAL]
Why have we got our arms?
What have we got our sight for?
[VAL & ENSEMBLE]
Play day is done
We've a place in the sun
We must fight for
So babes in arms, to arms!
