Ochs described it as the highlight of his career.<br /> <br /> Artist: Ochs Phil Song: I Ain't Marching Anymore<br /> Album: There But for Fortune<br /> Lyrics: Oh I marched to the battle of New Orleans / At the end of the early British war / The young land started growing / The young blood started flowing / But I ain't marchin' anymore / For I've killed my share of Indians / In a thousand different fights / I was there at the Little Big Horn / I heard many men lying / I saw many more dying / But I ain't marchin' anymore / It's always the old to lead us to the war / It's always the young to fall / Now look at all we've won with the saber and the gun / Tell me is it worth it all / For I stole California from the Mexican land / Fought in the bloody Civil War / Yes I even killed my brothers / And so many others / But I ain't marchin' anymore / For I marched to the battles of the German trench / In a war that was bound to end all wars / Oh I must have killed a million men / And now they want me back again / But I ain't marchin' anymore / (chorus) For I flew the final mission in the Japanese sky / Set off the mighty mushroom roar / When I saw the cities burning/ I knew that I was learning / That I ain't marchin' anymore / Now the labor leader's screamin' when they close the missile plants, / United Fruit screams at the Cuban shore, / Call it "Peace" or call it "Treason," / Call it "Love" or call it "Reason," / But I ain't marchin' any more, / No I ain't marchin' any more
