1. There’s a battle great now raging, and King Alcohol must go,
And our country from his fetters must be free;
Let us stand up for the right and to the world our colors show.
I am for prohibition, count on me!
(Chorus)
I am for prohibition, count on me!
I am for prohibition, victory.
O, we want our glorious nation from the curse of drink set free,
I am for prohibition, count on me!
2. We have captured many strongholds, let us press on still for more,
Until ev’ry place shall have sweet liberty;
Let us drive away this demon, cleanse our land from shore to shore.
I am for prohibition, count on me!
3. Standing shoulder unto shoulder, let us bravely face the foe,
Marching boldly onto glorious victory;
We can down this awful tyrant by a strong, decisive blow.
I am for prohibition, count on me!
