Get on Back Home
I don't know why I left
But I must've done wrong
(sung after each phrase)
And it won't be long
'Till I get on back home
Got a letter in the mail
Go to war or go to jail
Sat me in that barber's chair
Spun me around, I had no hair
Used to drive a Cadillac
Now I pack it on my back
Used to drive a limousine
Now I'm wearing Army green
Dress it right and cover down
Forty inches all around
Nine to the front and six to the rear
That's the way we do it here
Let It Blow
(sung after each 2nd phrase)
Let'em blow let'em blow
Let the four winds blow
Let'em blow from east to west
The Pioneer BN is the best
Standing tall and looking good
Ought to march in Hollywood
Hold your head and hold it high
_______Platoon is marching by
Look to your right and whadda see?
A bunch of families looking at me
Dress it right and cover down
Forty inches all around
Nine to the front, six to the rear
That's the way we do it here

Move over awful Alpha,
Let the Mighty Charlie pass.
Way down in the valley,

Knocking Delta in the chin.
Ease out on the clutch,
Hit the gas once more,
Move over deadbeat Delta,
Or we'll knock you to the floor.
YELLOW RIBBON
Around her hair, she wore a yellow ribbon,
She wore it in the springtime and the merry month of May.
And if you asked her why the heck she wore it,
She wore it for her soldier stationed far, far away.
Far away!
Oh, far away!
She wore it for her soldier who was far, far away.
Around her neck, she wore a silver locket,
She wore it in the springtime and the merry month of May.
And if you asked her why the heck she wore it,
She wore it for her soldier who was far, far away.
Far away!
Oh, far away!
She wore it for her soldier who was far, far away.
Around the block, she pushed a baby carriage,
she pushed in the springtime in the merry month of May.
And if you asked her why the heck she pushed it,
She pushed it for that Soldier who was far, far away
Far Away!
Far Away!
She pushed if for that Soldier who wasfar, far away, hey!
Behind the door, her daddy kept a shotgun
He kept it in the springtime and the merry month of May.
And if you asked him why the heck he kept it,
He kept it so her soldier would stay far, far away.
Far away!
Far away!
He kept it so her soldier would stay far, far away, HEY!

In The Early Morning Rain Cadence
Got a letter in the mail,
Go to war or go to jail,
Got a letter in the ma-a-a-ail
In the early morning rain
I packed my bags I kissed my parents,
Headed for the high school life,
I packed my bags I kissed my p-a-a-r-r-e-e-n-t-s,
In the early morning rain,
Told my Momma not to cry,
But I had tears in my eyes,
Told my Momma not to cry-y-y-y
In the early morning rain,
With this pencil in my hand,
And a pocket full of notes,
With this pencil in my ha-a-a-and,
In the early morning rain,
Got the test to my front,
And the teacher to my rear,
Passing Grades is all I he-e-e-e-ear,
In the early morning rain,
As I stand here to graduate,
Hold my diploma to my chest,
I know I did my be-e-e-est,
In the early morning rain,
Tell my parents not to cry,
Cuz I'll never say goodbye,
Tell my parents not to cry-y-y-y,
In the early morning rain,
I’m going off to college today,
Guess there's nothin left to say,
I’m going off to college to-d-a-a-y,
In the early morning rain,
They Say that In the Army
(Army Marching Cadence)
They say that in the Army, the chicken's mighty fine
One jumped off the table and started marking time
Refrain:
Oh, Lord I wanna go
But they won't let me go
(group ends this line with home,
stretched out over 8 paces, and a "Hey" on the right foot
to end the refrain)
They say that in the Army, the pay is mighty fine
They give you a hundred dollars and take back ninety-nine
They say that in the Army, the coffee's mighty fine
It looks like muddy water, and tastes like turpentine
They say that in the Army, the biscuits are mighty fine
One rolled off the table and killed a friend of mine
They say that in the Army, the shoes are mighty fine
You ask for size eleven, they give you size nine
They say that in the Army, the pancakes are mighty fine
You can try to chew them, but you're only wasting time
They say that in the Army, the coffee's mighty fine
It's good for cuts and bruises and tastes like iodine
They say that in the Army, the chicken's mighty fine
One jumped off the table and killed a friend of mine
OH HERE WE GO
oh here we go, we're at it again
we're moving out, we're marching in
oh here we go, we're at it again
we're movvvinnnng outtt. we're marching....in
FREEDOM SONG
some say freeeedommm is free
but I tend to disagree
some say freedom is free,
but I tend to disagree
some say freedom is won,
from the barrell of a gun
tell me why, tell me why
do our solider have to die
tell me why, oh why
do my friends have to die
some say freedom is free
but I tend to disagree
tell me why oh why
do our mothers have to cry
tell me why oh why
do our fathers have to cry
