US Marines Drill Songs

From the movie: Full Metal Jacket

I don't know, but I've been told.
Eskimo pussy is mighty cold!
Mmm, good!
Feels good!
Is good!
Real good!
Tastes good!
Mighty good!
Good for you!
Good for me! 		I love working for Uncle Sam!
Lets me know just who I am!
One, two, three, four! United States Marine Corps!
One, two, three, four! I love the Marine Corps!
My Corps!
Your Corps!
Our Corps!
Marine Corps! 		I don't want no teenage queen.
I just want my M-14.
If I die in the combat zone.
Box me up and ship me home.
Pin my medals upon my chest.
Tell my mom I've done my best.

C-130

C-130 rolling down the strip
Airborne daddy’s going to a little trip
When the plane gets way up high
Airborntroopers gonna dance in the sky

See those Airborne’s in the sky
The living proof that shit can fly
Stand up, Hook on, Shuffle to the door
Started jumping but fell on the floor

They stout me up and pushed me to door
Jump right down and counted to four
And if my main doesn’t open wide
I’ve got an other one by my side

And if that one should fail me too
Look out below, I’m coming through
Birdy, Birdy in the sky
dropped some shit right in my eye

I’m no sissy, I won’t cry
I’m just glad the cows don’t fly

And if I die on the old Drop Zone
Box my up and ship my home
Put my medals on my chest
And tell my mom I've done my best

Bury my body 6 feet down
Till you hear it hits the ground
When it hits the ground you'll hear me say
I want to be a drill instructor
I want to cut off all my hear
I want to be a drill instructor
Run with me if you dare
Captain Jack

Hey, hey Captain Jack
Meet me down by the railroad track
With that rifle in my hand
I'm gonna be a shootin' man
A shootin' man
The best I can
For Uncle Sam

Hey, hey Captain Jack
Meet me down by the railroad track
With that knife in my hand
I'm gonna be a cuttin' man
A cuttin' man
The best I can
For Uncle Sam

Hey, hey Captain Jack
Meet me down by the railroad track
With that grenade in my hand
I'm gonna be a killin' man
A killin' man
The best I can
For Uncle Sam

Hey, hey Captain Jack
Meet me down by the railroad track
With that bottle in my hand
I'm gonna be a drinkin' man
A drinkin' man
The best I can
For Uncle Sam
Me & Superman

Me and Superman got in a fight
I hit him in the head with some Kryptonite
I hit him so hard I busted his brain
And now I'm dating Lois Lane

His friend Batman wanted some too,
I hit him in the head with my left shoe.
I kicked him in the temple with my left heel,
Now I'm driving the Batmobile.

The Incredible Hulk, He came to help.
I hit him so hard he let out a yelp.
He growled real low and he tried to sound mean,
I ate him right up, Now I'm crappin' Green

Blood upon the risers

From the serie: Band of Brothers

(Tune of "Glory, Glory, Hallelujah")

He was just a rookie trooper,
And he surely shook from fright
As he checked all his equipment,
And made sure his pack was tight
He had to sit and listen to those awful engines roar,
You ain't gonna jump no more.

CHORUS:
GORY, GORY, WHAT A HELLUVA WAY TO DIE
GORY, GORY, WHAT A HELLUVA WAY TO DIE
GORY, GORY, WHAT A HELLUVA WAY TO DIE
HE AIN'T GONNA JUMP NO MORE!

"Is everyone happy?", cried the sergeant, looking up,
Our Hero feebly answered "Yes," and then they stood him up,
He leaped right out into the last, his static line unhooked,
HE AIN'T GONNA JUMP NO MORE!
(CHORUS)

He counted long, he counted loud, he waited for the shock,
He felt the wind, he felt the clouds, he felt the awful drop,
He jerked his cord, the silk spilled out and wrapped around his legs.
HE AIN'T GONNA JUMP NO MORE!
(CHORUS)

The risers wrapped around his neck, connectors cracked his dome
The lines were snarled and tied in knots, around his skinny bones,
The canopy became his shroud, he hurtled to the ground,
HE AIN'T GONNA JUMP NO MORE!
(CHORUS)

The days he's lived and loved and laughed kept running through his mind,
He thought about the girl back home, the one he'd left behind,
He thought about the medics and wondered what they'd find,
HE AIN'T GONNA JUMP NO MORE!
(CHORUS)

The ambulance was on the spot, the jeeps were running wild,
The medics jumped and screamed with glee, they rolled their sleeves and smiled
For it had been a week or more since last a 'Chute had failed.
HE AIN'T GONNA JUMP NO MORE!
(CHORUS)

He hit the ground, the sound was "SPLAT", his blood went spurting high
His comrades then were heard to say, "A Helluva way to die."
He lay there rolling 'round in the welter of his gore.
HE AIN'T GONNA JUMP NO MORE!
(CHORUS)

There was blood upon the risers, there were brains upon the 'Chute
Intestines were a'dangling from his Paratrooper's boots,
They picked him, still in his 'Chute and poured him from his boots.
HE AIN'T GONNA JUMP NO MORE!
