Sittin' on a mountain top, beating my drum Beat it so hard that the MP's come I said MP, MP, don't arrest me Arrest that leg behind the tree He stole the whiskey, I stole the wine All I ever do is double-time Airborne Ranger raving mad He's got a tab I wish I had Black and gold and half moon shape Airborne Ranger, he's gone ape Jumpin' through windows, kicking down the walls Airborne Ranger's havin' a ball So if there's a trouble in the world today Call on the men in the Black Berets! Rollin' rollin' rollin' Oh my _____ is (are) swollen (ankles, feet, legs, knees, etc.) Don't let your dingle dangle dangle in the mud Pickup your dingle dangle, give it to your bud ... dangle in the dirt (ground) (track) ... put it in your shirt (toss it all around) ( (put it in your pack) Up in the morning before the break of day I don't like it, no way Eat my breakfast too damn soon Hungry as a hound dog, before noon Went to the mess hall on my knee I said, "Mess SGT., Mess SGT., feed me please!" Mess SGT. said with a big ol' grin "If you wanna be Airborne, you gotta be thin" I saw an old lady running down the street Had a chute on her back, jump boots on her feet Said, "Hey old lady, where you goin' to?" She said, "US Army Airborne School" Whatcha gonna do when you get there? Jump from a plane and fall through the air I said, "Hey old lady, ain't you been told? Airborne School's for the brave and the bold." She said, "Hey, now soldier, don't be a fool, I'm an instructor at Airborne School!" When my granny was 91 She did PT just for fun 92 She did PT better than you 93 She did PT better than me 94 She did PT more and more 95 She did PT to stay alive 96 She kept on doing flutter-kicks 97 She up and died and went to heaven She met St. Peter at the pearly gates Said, "St. Peter, St. Peter, hope I'm not late St. Peter said with a big ol' grin "Get down granny, and knock out ten" She replied with a big ol' smile "Sorry, St. Peter, I'm on profile!" One mile - No sweat Two miles - Better yet Three miles - Gotta run Four miles - To the sun I think I might... I don't know but I think I might Jump from an airplane while in flight Soldier, soldier, have you heard I'm gonna jump from a big iron bird Up in the morning in the drizzlin' rain Packed my chute and boarded the plane C-130 rollin' down the strip 64 Rangers on a one-way trip Mission Top Secret, destination unknown They don't even know if they're ever coming home When my plane gets up so high Airborne troopers 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've got a reserve by my side If that one should fail me too Look out ground, I'm a-coming through If I die on the old drop zone Box me up and ship me home Bury speakers all around my head So I can rock with the Grateful Dead Bury speakers all around my toes So I can rock with Axel Rose If I die on a Chinese hill Take my watch or the commies will If I die in the Korean mud Bury me with a case of Bud Put my wings upon my chest And tell my Mom I did my best A is for Airborne I is for in the sky R is for Ranger B is for bonafide O is for on the go R is for Rock-n-Roll N is for never quit E is for everyday 'Cause I'm Airborne All the way Super-duper Paratrooper R is for rough and tough A is for all the way N is for never quit G is for gung-ho E is for excellence R is for Ranger Two Old Ladies Two old ladies lying in bed, One rolled over to the other and said, "I wanna be an Airborne Ranger", Live a life of guts and danger, Blood, guts, lies and danger, That's the life of an Airborne Ranger. When I get to Heaven Saint Peter’s gonna say “How’d you earn your livin’ boy? How’d you earn your pay?” I’ll reply with a whole lot of anger, “I made my living as an Airborne Ranger!” Blood, guts, and a whole lot of danger That’s the life of an Airborne Ranger!” When I get to hell Satan’s gonna say “How’d you earn your livin’ boy?” How’d you earn your pay?” I’ll reply with a boot to his chest “I made my living laying souls to rest!” I had a dog who's name was Boo Boo wanted to go to Infantry school So early one day I took away his chow And I motivated his bow-wow I made him walk for 15 days And put old Boo into a zombie haze Now my Boo's a trooper, too Mess with him and he'll bite you Engineer, engineer running down the road Running so fast makes the others look old We're running hard and we're running long Still singing another stupid song Build a road or cut down a tree Or dig some graves for the Infantry Working hard and working all day Knocking down anything that gets in the way Marching Cadences

Refrain Hit the ground with American pride A bullet through a commie's eye He ought to be damn glad he died He'd hate for me to take him alive It's true that some of us will die Airborne rangers learn to fly But not today as I hit the ground Lock and load another round Over the hill, some men I've seen Head to toe in Army green Moving tactically, not a sound Infantry soldiers on the ground Assault, support are all in place The enemy unaware of his fate Claymores blast and 60's roar Again, the airborne ranger scores Its true that someday I'll be dead Before I go I'll take more heads Before us enemies all will flee 'Cause we're the airborne infantry Somewhere there's a woman She's crying for her man He's an airborne ranger He does the best he can Refrain: Don't cry for me I don't need your sympathy 'Cause I'm an airborne ranger And that's all I want to be Somewhere there's a mother She's praying for her son He's an airborne ranger And his work is never done Somewhere there's a father His head is bowed in grief His son was an airborne ranger And he died for his beliefs Somewhere there's a mother Flag folded in her hands Her son was an airborne ranger And he died for his land

The unit then repeats the leader's words in the normal manner.
