Country: | My favorite one is a bit old fashioned...it isnt exactly marching rythym The Ric-A-Dam-Doo
(aka the Princess Pats) The Princess Pat's Battalion
They sailed across the Herring Pond,
They sailed across the Channel too,
And landed there with the Ric-A-Dam-Doo
Dam-Doo, Dam-Doo.
The Princess Pat's Battalion Scouts
They never knew their whereabouts.
If there's a pub within a mile or two,
You'll find them there with the Ric-A-Dam-Doo,
Dam-Doo, Dam-Doo.
The Lewis Guns are always true
To every call of the Ric-A-Dam-Doo.
They're always there with a burst or two
Whenever they see the Ric-A-Dam-Doo,
Dam-Doo, Dam-Doo.
The Bombers of the Princess Pat's
Are scared of naught, excepting rats,
They're full of pep and dynamite too,
They'd never lose the Ric-A-Dam-Doo,
Dam-Doo, Dam-Doo.
The Transport of the Princess Pat's
Are all dressed up in Stetson hats.
They shine their brass and limbers too
I believe they'd shine the Ric-A-Dam-Doo,
Dam-Doo, Dam-Doo.
Old Number Three, our company
We must fall in ten times a day.
If we fell out 'twould never do
For then we’d lose the Ric-A-Dam-Doo,
Dam-Doo, Dam-Doo.
Old Charlie S., our Major dear,
Who always buys us rum and beer,
If there's a trench in a mile or two
You'll find him there with the Ric-A-Dam-Doo,
Dam-Doo, Dam-Doo.
Old Ackity-Ack, our Colonel grand,
The leader of this noble band,
He'd go to Hell and charge right through
Before he'd lose the Ric-A-Dam-Doo,
Dam-Doo, Dam-Doo.
Old Hammy Gault, our first PP,
He led this band across the sea,
He'd lose an arm, or leg or two
Before he'd lose the Ric-A-Dam-Doo,
Dam-Doo, Dam-Doo.
And then we came to Sicily.
We leapt ashore with vim and glee.
The Colonel said the Wops are through
Let's chase the Hun with the Ric-A-Dam-Doo,
Dam-Doo, Dam-Doo.
The Ric-A-Dam-Doo, pray what is that?
'Twas made at home by Princess Pat,
It's Red and Gold and Royal Blue,
That's what we call the Ric-A-Dam-Doo,
Dam-Doo, Dam-Doo.

Country: | And a cadence is a song that u can march or run to so....
Here is my favorite cadence, and one I've sung too many times to count..
Up from a sub 60 feet below,
When we hit the surface, we'll be ready to go.
Side-stroke, back-stroke, swim to the shore,
When we hit the beach, we're ready for war.
Grease gun, KA-BAR by my side,
These are the tools that make men die.
And the other one we used to sing, especially when around those faggot assed Army pukes like urself hussars...
Sons of UDT
Hey Army!
Backpackin' Army,
Pick up your packs and run with me,
We are the sons of UDT.
Hey Marine Corps,
Rifle totin' Marine Corp,
Pick up your rifles and run with me,
We are the sons of UDT.
Hey Airforce,
Low flyin' Airforce,
Hop in your planes and follow me,
We are the sons of UDT.
Hey Coast Guard,
Puddle pirate Coast Guard,
Hop in your boats and follow me,
We are the sons of UDT.
Hey Navy,
World's finest Navy,
Board your ships and follow me,
We are the sons of UDT.
We would run EVERYONE into the ground, and make it a point to embarrass ANYONE who thought they could work us over...

Country: | Most of the time, historical reference can be lost on those military members that are ”in the moment.” Sometimes a wave of emotion can wash over you, triggered by a stimulus.
I was ending my time in Army Airborne School (I was in the USAF). Actually, I was disappointed in the difficulty of the program, I found it quite easy but I was anxious to complete my first military jump. The morning air was sweetened by the rich smell of Jet exhaust as the C-130’s groaned against a picture-perfect sunrise. Marching toward the flightline, I let myself imagine that I was preparing for a WW2 jump into Sicily or Normandy.
Black and white photos started flashing in my head of 82nd and 101st airborne troops. A sense of pride started to well within me just as the Army “Black Hat” started wailing away: Around her neck she wore a yellow ribbon
She wore it in the springtime
And in the month of May
And if you ask me why the heck she wore it
She wore it for her soldier who was far far away
Far away, far away
She wore it for her soldier
Who was far, far away
and on and on.... man that felt good.... from cavalry to airborne
A proud military tradition… by horseback or C-130

Country: | The only marchin' I ever did was in boot camp (1951, Great Lakes). Our
RCPO had a phonograph (read:Victrola) and he'd play "Star & Stripes,
Forever", "Over Hill, Over Dale", and some other John Phillip Sousa stuff.
We didn't sing, just marched, marched, marched. The Navy was never known
to march from place to place.

The prettiest girl (The prettiest girl)
I ever saw (I ever saw)

The prettiest girl (The prettiest girl
I ever saw (I ever saw)
was sipping bourbon .... through a straw.
(the next verses follow the above format)
I walked right up
I sat right down
I ordered up
another round.
I placed my hand
upon her knee
she said young man
your teasing me.
I placed my hand
upon her thigh
she said young man
that's way too high.
I picked her up
I laid her down
her long blond hair
lay all around.
The wedding was
a formal one
her daddy had
a white shotgun.
And now I've got
a mother-in-law
and 14 kids
who call me pa.
There's more, but I'll keep it clean.

Country: | I was in Ft. Benning Airborne school wearing an Air Force uniform with 2 stripes. In the AF it's just an E-2 (or E-3 i forget), In the Army, it's a corporal. Army NCO blackhats would always task me to march a squad to miscellaneous places cause they thought I was an NCO.
I only knew how to run to cadence, I couldn't march at all so I always had my squad run everywhere. The blackhats all thought I was "highspeed and airborne ready"... I just didn't know how to march!
start of Airborne School.. 500 army and 9 Air force
end of Airborne School.. 350 Army and 9 Air Force

Country: | Jim the Greek
From out of the west came Jim the Greek,
With forty pounds of swinging meat.
But mother nature played him one mean trick,
he was the only man with a corkscrew d**k.
From dawn to dusk Jim continued his hunt,
Looking for a woman with a corkscrew c***.
At last he found her and he got her in bed -
I'll be a s** of a b**** - she had a left-hand thread. |
