DIG DOWN DEEP
Gerald Marks / Walter Hirsch / S Marco

as rec by Frank Sinatra & The Pied Pipers 
w Tommy Dorsey & his Orch June 17th 1942 New York


You'd better get up and do it now,
You'd better get up, my friend, and how!
The land that you love the best
Is asking you to invest,
With a personal request
>From Mister Morganthau.

Dig down deep
To buy the bonds that buy the tanks,
Bombers for our fightin' Yanks,
Dig down deep!

Dig down deep
to buy the bonds that keep us free,
To fly the sky, the land and sea,
Dig down deep!

Put your hands in your jeans, Mister Citizen,
Everybody must do his part!
It's the easiest piece, Mister Citizen,
To show the world we finish what we start!

So dif down deep,
The boys are giving out for you,
So the least that you can do
Is dig down deep!
