C-130

C-130 rolling down the strip

Navy Seals on a one way trip

Mission top secret, destination unknown

We don't even know if we're ever going home

Stand up, hook up, shuffle to the door

Jump right out and count to four

It my main don't open wide

I've gotta reserve by my side

If that one should fail me too

Look out ground cause I'm a comin' through

If I die on that old drop zone

Box me up and ship me home

Pin my metals upon my chest

Bury me in the leaning rest

Chow

Up in the morning, before day

I don't like it, no way

Eat my breakfast too darn soon

Hungry as a bear by noon

Went to the mess sergeant on my knees

Said "mess SGT., mess SGT. feed me please"

Mess SGT. said with a big wide grin

Said, "If you wanna be Marine Corps, you gotta be thin"

Gotta be

Lean and mean

Everywhere We Go

Everywhere we go-o

People wanna know-o

Who we are

So we tell them

We're not the Army

The backpackin' Army

We're not the Air Force

The low flyin' Air Force

We're not the Mo-rines

They don't even look mean

We're not the Coast Guard

They don't even work hard

We are the Navy

The world's greastest Navy

The mighty-mighty Navy

I heard that in the Navy

the food was mighty fine

a chicken jumped off the table

and started marking time.

I heard that in the Navy

the coffee was mighty fine

it looks like muddy water,

it tastes like turpantine.

I heard that in the Navy

the women were mighty fine,

they look like Godzilla,

they kiss like Frankenstein.

I heard that in the Navy

the toilets are mighty fine,

you flush them down at seven

they come back up at nine.

I heard that in the Navy

the pay is mighty fine,

they give 100 dollars

and take back 99.

Little Bird

A little bird

with a little beak

landed on

my toilet seat.

I pushed him in

and flushed him down

and then I watched

him swirl around.

Mama & Papa

Mama & Papa were lyin' in bed

Mama rolled over and this is what she said

Uh-Give me some

Good for you

Good for me

Umm good

Tastes good

Smells good

Is good

Superman

Superman was the man of steel,

but he aint no match for a Navy Seal.

Chief and Supe got in a fight;

Chief hit Supe with cryptoninte.

Supe fell to his knees in pain.

Now Chief's dating Louis Lane

Well Chief and Batman had one too,

Chief hit him in the head with his shoe.

Hit him in the temple with his left heel,

Now Chief's driving the Batmobile.

When I Get to Heaven

When I get to heaven

St. Peter's gonna say

"How'd you earn your living"

"How'd you earn your pay"

I will reply with a bit of anger

I earned my living as an Airborne Ranger

Lived a life of guts and danger

Nothin' too tough for an Airborne Ranger

Yellow Bird

A Yellow Bird

With a Yellow Bill

Was sitting on

My window seal

I lured him in

with a piece of bread

Then I smashed

his little head

The moral of

The Story is

If you want some Bread

PROTECT YOUR HEAD!

Back in 1775

My Marine Corps came alive

First there came the color gold

To show the world that we are bold

Then there came the color red

To show the world the blood we shed

Then there came the color green

To show the world that we are mean

Then there came the color blue

To show the world that we are true

Oh yeah

Marine Corps

Your Corps

My Corps

Grand mama

My Grand mama was 92

She used to PT like me and you.

My grand mama was 96,

She did PT just for kicks.

My grand mama was 107,

Well the poor girl died and went to heaven.

My grand mama was 98,

She went side straddle hoppin through the pearly gates.

My grand mama was 109,

She had St. Peter doubling time.

Oh theres a place where Marines are made,

Yellin and a runnin day to day.

Mean DI's makin fighting machines,

They take boys and make them mean.

Get up in the mornin in the drizzle and rain,

Run all day till you feel the pain.

This is the place that God forgot,

Sand is deep and the sun is hot.

It's as fierce your Drill Instructors face,

Parris Island is the name of this place

Orraaahhh

Oh Yeah

Parris Island

Marine Corps

Here we go

Orraaahhh

Ah Ha

Heavy on the left foot

Motivated Left foot

There aint no discharge on the ground.

There aint no use in lookin back,

Here we Go

Oh Yeah

One mile

No sweat

Two miles

To the sun

Suzie said to me one day long ago,

Honey please dont join the Corps.

They like to do nothing but fuss and fight,

They look at women like they're high and tight.

They got poor table manners and they are so crude,

They got a board's sense of humor and they are so rude.

I said Suzie let me tell you what I'll do,

I'll join the Corps just for a year or two.

So I packed my trash and I headed for the plane,

I went to the place where they made Marines.

Oh Yeah

Parris Island was the name of the place,

The first thing I saw was a Drill Instructors face.

Oh Yeah

He had razor creases and a Smoky Bear,

Mountain climbing privates everywhere

Suzie said it's me or the Corps,

I cant take this life anymore.

I looked at her with a big ole grin,

I haven't seen Suzie since I dont know when.

Oh Yeah

Tarzan and Jane was swinging on a vine,

Sippin from a bottle of Vodka double wine.

Jane lost her grip and down she fell,

When she hit the ground she let out a yell.

Ayyyyy Yiiiiii

Uh Uh

Feels Good

Tarzan and Cheetah was swinging on a vine,

Sippin from a bottle of Vodka double wine.

Cheetah lost his grip and down he fell,

When he hit the ground he let out a yell.

Ayyyyy Yiiiiii

Uh Uh

Feels Good

Through the desert and across the plains

Steaming jungles and tropic rains

No mortal foe can stop me now

This is gonna be my solemn vow

I have honor and I have pride

Winning serves me as my guide

This Corps shocks our enemies

Brings them crashing to their knees

Basic Training is plenty rough

To make it through you must be tough

Hey, Squad Leader, don't be blue

They're gonna make you a soldier, too

Up in the middle of the drizzle and the rain,

I packed my chute and I ran to the plane.

Mission top secret there's a mission unknown,

We dont know if we're ever comin home.

Stand up, buckled up, shuffled to the door,

Jumped right out and shout MARINE CORPS!

If my chute dont open wide.

I've got another one by my side.

If that chute dont open round.

I'll be the first one on the ground.

Orraaahhh!

Tell my mama not to cry

In the Marine Corps you will do or die.

Pin my wings upon my chest

Tell my girl I've done my best.

Place a Kabar in my hand.

I'll fight my way to the promised land.

Orraaahhh!

Lean and mean

U.S. Marine

Orraaahhh!

Up in the morning at the break of day

Working so hard we never play

Running through the jungle where the sun don't shine

All I do is double time

Up in the morning and out of the rack

Grab my clothes and put them on my back

Running cross the desert in the shifting sand

Drill Sergeant, look, I'll give you a helping hand

Up in the morning with a whistle and a yell

I know that voice and I know it well

Drill Sergeant says you better hit the floor

And don't be walking going out the door

I like women and I like wine

But all I do is double time

Double time here and double time there

Man this life, it's the best anywhere
