Come Along and Join Our Party

June 9, 2015

In my recent article about a military chaplain, I mentioned that he printed an old Army cadence in his book that said that Jesus was an airborne Ranger. Retired Air Force Major, LRC reader, and recovering veteran Michael Reith sends along this Army cadence that the chaplain neglected to print in his book:

Come Along and Join Our Party

Come along and join our party
Come along and join our fun
We’re the soldiers of the U.S. Army
dropping rounds on everyone

Go to town and kill some commies
Throw some napalm on red square
Do it on a Sunday morning
As the people go to prayer

Come along and join our party
Come along and join our fun
We’re the soldiers of the U.S. Army
dropping rounds on everyone

Aiming mortars at the school yard
Watch the teacher ring the bell
Look at all the children crying
as their school yard burns to hell

Come along and join our party
Come along and join our fun
We’re the soldiers of the U.S. Army
dropping rounds on everyone

Throw some candy to those children
Watch them as they gather round
Lock and load on your M16
Mow those little suckers down

Come along and join our party
Come along and join our fun
We’re the soldiers of the U.S. Army
dropping rounds on everyone
