Marine Motto
If I die in a combat zone,
Box me up and ship me home.
Pin my medals on my chest,
Tell my Mamma I did my best.
Tell my Mamma not to cry,
Marine Corps motto is to Do or Die!
Box me up and ship me home.
Pin my medals on my chest,
Tell my Mamma I did my best.
Tell my Mamma not to cry,
Marine Corps motto is to Do or Die!

Precision Ass Kicking'
Saddam Hussein is a son of a bitch,
At least once a year he got an itch,
To move his army round and round,
While he stayed camped out underground.
1990 he said move em South,
Go into Kuwait and kick them out,
Take command of their oil fields,
Then he ran into Desert Shield.
Forces pouring in from all around,
Ready for a dog fight on the ground,
Saddam said stack em up in the sand,
We're not leaving let's make a stand,
Bush said you got til the count of three,
I'm unleashing hell from above on thee,
Little sand bunkers won't help you much,
500 pounder has just the right touch.
Surrender is the only way,
You'll see your family another day,
Can't get mad cause you were warned,
Welcome to the thunder of Desert Storm.
B-52 flying by in the sun,
A-10's gotta tank killing gun,
Raven, Eagle and a Falcon too,
Stealth's just gonna fly right through.
Tomahawk missile flying in low,
Keep your eyes open or you'll miss the show,
Gotta loud knocking at your front door,
Precision ass kicking time-need I say more.
Where's your republican guard at now,
Waiving white hankies and crying out loud,
Please mister Bush call off your attack,
We have no energy to fight back.
Sent the Marine Corps to clean em up,
Push em back to Baghdad without their stuff,
Abrams coming so they turn and run,
Can't run any further lay down their guns.
Haven't you learned anything by now,
Can't beat us in the air or on the ground,
100 short hours is all we need,
To put your sorry ass country on its knees.
Next time you feel like getting an itch,
Look back to Desert Storm and remember this,
We can drop it down the chimney of your house,
Precision ass kickin's what it's all about!

Airborne Ranger
Airborne Ranger,
Deep in the battle field covered with mud,
Lies an airborne ranger dying in mud.
Airborne Ranger,
He fought to keep America free,
For soldiers like you and me.
Airborne Ranger,
Those silver wings upon his chest,
Tell America that he's one of the best.
Airborne Ranger!

Momma told Johnny[2]
Momma told Johnny not to go downtown,
Heard the Marine recruiter was hanging' around.
Johnny went downtown anyways,
Wanted to hear what Recruiter had to say.
Recruiter said, Johnny boy watcha wanna be?,
Johnny said I wanna be in Infantry.
So he caught a flight to Vietnam,
There he fought the Viet Cong.
Many he killed by knife by blade,
But God only knows how many lives he saved.
Johnny was bold and Johnny was brave,
Johnny jumped on a hand grenade.
Saved the lives of the men he led,
But before he died this is what he said:
Momma momma don't you cry,
Marine Corp motto Semper Fi!
[Semper Fi is used for short of Semper Fidelis- Always Faithful.]

Band of Brothers
Above the land, across the sea,
We're everywhere, we need to be.
We're brothers of a special kind,
A better band, you'll never find.
Band of brothers, that's what we are,
Fighting evil, near and far.
Band of brothers, that's what I said,
Baptized by fire, scarred by lead.
We're lean and mean, and fit to fight,
Anywhere, day or night.
When bullets fly, and rockets fall,
We'll stand our ground, and give our all.
We're on the move, we're on the march,
We're digging ditches, and breaking starch.
When you hear our battle cry,
You better move and step aside.
Band of brothers, that's what we said,
Mess with us, we'll shoot you dead.
Band of brothers, trained to kill,
If we don't getcha, our sisters will. !

c- 130 again
I think I may I think I might,
Jump from a airplane while in flight.
Soldier soldier have you heard,
I'm gonna jump from an Iron bird.
Up in the morning in the drizzling rain,
Packed my chute and boarded the plane.
C-130 rolling down the strip,
64 rangers on a one way trip.
Mission top secret,
Destination unknown, don't give a damn if they ever come home.
When that plane gets up so high,
Airborne rangers gonna dance in the sky.
Stand up, hook up shuffle to the door,
Jump right out and count to four.
If my main don't open wide,
I got another parachute by my side.
If that one should fail me to,
Look out leg I'm a coming for you.
If I should die on the old drop zone,
Box me up and send me home.
If I should die on Chinese hill,
Take my watch or the commies will.
Pin those silver wings on me,
So I can die in harmony.
Jump from a airplane while in flight.

MARINES (sung to Ghost Riders In The Sky):
You can have your Army Khaki.
You can have your Navy blues.
I have another uniform to introduce to you.
This uniform is different, this uniform is green.
The Germans called us Devil Dogs,
The name is just Marine!
We were born at Parris Island,
The land that GOD forgot.
Where the sand is 18 inches deep, and the blazing sun is hot.
We get up in the morning, way before the sun,
We run 100 miles or more before the day is done.
Marines, Marines, Marines
So listen to me girl to what I have to say,
You find yourself a good Marine for each and every day,
He'll love you and he'll kiss you, he'll never be untrue,
You get yourself a good Marine for each and every day.
Marines, Marines, Marines
So when I get to Heaven to St. Peter I will say,
"Another Marine reporting Sir, I'll spend my time in hell",
Marines, Marines, Marines
But when I look around me, oh, what will I see?
One hundred thousand more Marines standing next to me!
Marines, Marines, Marines !
You can have your Army Khaki.
You can have your Navy blues.
I have another uniform to introduce to you.
This uniform is different, this uniform is green.
The Germans called us Devil Dogs,
The name is just Marine!

Mama Mama Can't You See
Mama mama can't you see,
What the Marine Core done to me.
Sitting in a barber's chair,
Snip snap and I had no ha-air.
And if I die in a combat zone,
Box me up and ship me ho-ome,
Put me in a set of dress blu-ues,
Comb my hair and shine my sho-oes.
Pin my medals upon my che-est,
Tell my mama I did my be-est.
Well mama mama don't you cry-y,
MARINE CORE MOTTO IS DO OR DIE!
