MARINE (sung to Ghost Riders In The Sky)
You can have your Army Khaki. You can have your Navy blue. But here's another uniform I'll introduce to you. This uniform is different, the color forest green. The Germans called it Devil Dog, the name is just Marine! Marine!
They trained him down in 'Dego, the land that God forgot, the mountains high, the rivers dry, the sun is blazing hot. He peels a million onions, and twice as many spuds, and when he gets a little time, he washes out his duds. Marine! Marine!
Now girls here's a little tip I'm passing on to you. Just get yourself a good Marine, there's nothing he can't do. And when he gets to Heaven, to Saint Peter he will tell, Another Marine reporting, Sir! I've served my time in Hell! Marine! Marine Marine!
(Semper Fi!)

Air borne ranger
I hear the choppers hovering', hovering' over head,
They've come to get the wounded, come to get the dead,
Airborne ranger lead the way,
I'm sitting' in my foxhole, sharpening' my knife,
Up jumps the enemy, had to take his life,
Airborne ranger lead the way,
My buddy's in his foxhole, bullet in his head,
Medic says he's wounded, but I know he's dead,
Airborne ranger lead the way !

Mama Told Johnny
Mama told Johnny not to go downtown
The Army recruiter was hanging' around.
Johnny loved his country so he went anyway.
Joined the Army the very next day.
Johnny hugged his mom and he hugged his dad.
Talked about all the good times they had.
Johnny hugged his dad and he kissed his mom.
Boarded a plane bound for Vietnam.
Where Johnny jumped on, a hand grenade.
To save the lives of the friends he made.
Johnny had a girl and her name was Carrie.
Swore when he returned that they would surly get married.
Carrie goes to D.C. every fall.
To read the names on Johnny's Wall
L-O-Y-A-L-T-Y
Loyalty's the reason that we're willing to die.
D-U-T-Y
Duty is the reason that we're willing to try.

Momma, Momma
Momma, Momma,
Can't you see;
What this place
is doing to me.
I use to drive a Chevrolet,
now I'm marching every day.
I use to drive a Cadillac,
now I'm packing on my back.
Ain't no use in going home,
Jody's got your girl and gone.

we're going to jump on the count of four,
if I die when I hit the mud
bury me with a case of bud,
a case of bud and a bottle of rum,
we'll raise hell in kingdom come.

They Say That In The Army
They say that in the Army the food is mighty fine
A chicken jumped off the table and killed a friend of mine
Ooo lord I want to go
But they won't let me goooooooooooooooooooooooo(hey!)
They say that in the Army the coffee is mighty fine
Looks like muddy water and tastes like turpentine
Ooo lord I want to go
But they won't let me goooooooooooooooo(hey!)
They say that in the Army the pay is mighty fine
They give you a 100 dollars and take back 99
Oooo lord I wanna go
But they won't let me gooooooooooooooo(hey!)
They say that in the Army the women are mighty fine
They look like Freddy Krueger and walk like Frankenstein
Ooo lord I wanna go
But they won't let me gooooooooooooooo(hey!)
They say that in the Army the beds are mighty fine
How the hell would I know I never slept in mine?
Ooo lord I want to go
But they won't let me goooooo(hey!)
They say that in the Army the buses are mighty fine
One went round a corner and left 3 wheels behind
Ooo lord I wanna go
But they won't let me goooooooooooo(hey!)
They say that in the Army the tents are waterproof
Go to sleep on the ground and wake up on the roof
Ooo lord I wanna go
But they won't let me goooooooooooo(hey!)

You flush them down at 7, they come back up at 9
Oh Lord I wanna go
But they won't let me goooooooooooo(hey!)

Army Goes Rolling Along
First to fight for the right,
And to build the Nation's might,
And The Army Goes Rolling Along
Proud of all we have done,
Fighting till the battle's won,
And the Army Goes Rolling Along.
Then it's Hi! Hi! Hey!
The Army's on its way.
Count off the cadence loud and strong (TWO! THREE!)
For where ever we go,
You will always know
That The Army Goes Rolling Along.
Valley Forge, Custer's ranks,
San Juan Hill and Patton's tanks,
And the Army went rolling along
Minute men, from the start,
Always fighting from the heart,
And the Army keeps rolling along.
Then it's Hi! Hi! Hey!
The Army's on its way.
Count off the cadence loud and strong (TWO! THREE!)
For where ever we go,
You will always know
That The Army Goes Rolling Along.
Men in rags, men who froze,
Still that Army met its foes,
And the Army went rolling along.
Faith in God, then we're right,
And we'll fight with all our might,
As the Army keeps rolling along.
Then it's Hi! Hi! Hey!
The Army's on its way.
Count off the cadence loud and strong (TWO! THREE!)
For where ever we go,
You will always know
That The Army Goes Rolling Along.
And to build the Nation's might,
And The Army Goes Rolling Along
Proud of all we have done,
Fighting till the battle's won,
And the Army Goes Rolling Along.
Then it's Hi! Hi! Hey!

When Johnny comes marching home again,
Hurrah, hurrah!

When Johnny comes marching home again.
Hurrah, hurrah!
Let love and friendship reign that day,
Hurrah, hurrah!
Their choicest treasures then display,
Hurrah, hurrah!
And let each one perform some part,
To fill with joy the warrior's heart,
And we'll all feel great,
