Airborne Ranger on a one way trip
Stand up, hook up, shuffle to the door
Jump right out and count to four
If my main don't open wide
I got a reserve by my side
If that other should fail me too
Bury me in my Dress Blues
Pin my wings upon my chest
Tell my girl I did my best
I want to be an Airborne Ranger !

Airborne Tanker
C130 rolling down the strip
Airborne Tankers gonna take a little trip
Stand up, hook up, shuffle to the door
Jump right out and count to four
If my chute don't open wide
I gotta another one by my side
If that one should fail me too
Look out, ground, I'm a coming through
If I die in a combat zone

Black Berets
Six hundred soldiers
Caught in a valley by the NVA
Billy was worried, didn't know what to do
So he called on me and you
We jumped on in in the middle of the night
Looks like another bloody fire fight
I set my weapon on Rock n Roll
I boogied and woogied and continued to stroll
Killing Communists just for fun
High body count now two for one
If you got trouble in the world today
Just call on the men of the black beret!

Double-Time... Anytime... March!
C-130 rolling down the strip
64 troopers gonna take a little trip
Mission top secret, destination unknown
And they don't give a damn if they ever come home
Stand up, hook up, shuffle to the door
Jump right out and count to four
If that main don't open wide
I've got a reserve by my side
And if that one should fail me too
Here is all that I should do
Roll over get up and run off the DZ
Cause never in HELL will ya' bury me !

First Formation
First formation it was pouring rain,
1 SG said it was time for pain.
Then he said extend to the right,
All you sick calls get out of my sight.
Spent last night out drinking' gin,
Knew for sure I'd see it again.
Pushup, sit-ups, run in place,
1 SG was setting a helluva pace.
High jumper, longer, and body twist,
So many others too numerous to list.
By the time we assembled to the right,
I was praying with all my might.
1 SG spotted me in my daze,
Said where've you been the last couple of days?
Told him I spent them with my girl,
Oh, how she makes my head swirl.
1 SG said that's well and fine,
But today, hero, your ass is mine.
How many times do I have to say,
If you play the game you got to pay.

Chairborne Ranger
It's one thirty now on the strip
Chairborne daddy gonna take a little trip
Stand up, lock up, shuffle to the door
The club for lunch and home by four
If there's something to decide
Close your door and try to hide
Every time you get a call
You're out playing racquetball
First revise the SOP
Make a change in policy
Ours is not to wonder why
It's written down in the LOI
God forbid we should go to war
All that paperwork would be a bore
Let me stay behind my desk
Anything is better than the leaning rest
Chairborne Ranger, that's what I am
One of a kind, I'm and AG man !
