AIR FORCE SONG                                                             X
Off w© go, into the wind blue yonder
Climbing high, into the sun
Here they come zooming to meet our thunder
At fem boys, give her the gun.
Down we dive, spouting oxjr flame from under
Off with one hell of a roar,
We live in fame, or go down in flame,
Nothing can stop the U. S. Air Force,
Here's a toast to the host of those who boast
the vastness of the sky,
To a friend we send a message of
His brother who can fly,
We drink to those who gave their all of old
As down we roar to score the rainbowfs pot of gold.
Here's a toast to the host of those who boast
the U. S. Air Force.

MART ANN BURNS                                                              3
Mary Ann Burns was the queen of all the acrobats
She could do the tricks that would give a cat the shits
Roll green peas from her fundamental orifice
Do a double flip and catch them on her tits
A great big son-of-a-bitch twice as big as me
Hair around her ass like the branches on a tree
She can swim, fish, fight, f\*ck
Roll a barrel, drive a truck
Mary Ann Burns is the girl for me, (My bloody ass)
ADELINE SCHMIDT                                                             4
There was a young maiden named Adeline Schmidt
She went to the doctor cause she couldn't Shit
He gave her some medicine wrapped up in glass
Up^wcnt the window and out went her ass.
Chorus:
It was brown brown shit falling down
Brown brown shit all around
It was brown brown shit falling down
My God how that poor girl could shit*
A handsome young copper was walking his beat
He happened to be on that side of the street
He looked up so bashful he looked up so shy
When a piece of brown shit hit him right in the eye*
Chorus:
This handsome young copper he cussed and he swore
He called that young maiden a dirty old whore
And on Brooklyn bridge you can still see him sit
With a sign round his neck saying, "Blinded by shit11.
It was brown brown sh? i: falling down
Brown brown shit all * round;
It was brown brown &h3t falling down
His life it was ridnec by shit*
STYLES (Tune-Smiles)                                      5
There are styles that show the ankle
There are styles that show the }cnee
There are styles that have the boys all wond'ring
Just what the girls are gonna let us see.
There are styles that have a tender meaning
That the eyes of men alone can see
But the style that Eve wore in the garden
Is the style that appeals to me,


OH RIP THE FEATHEHS AWAT                                                    6

If you rip the feathers away.
O'REILLETS DAUGHTER                                                      7
As I was sitting at OfReilleys bar
Listening to tales of blood and slaughter
Came a thought into my mind
Why not shag OfReilleys daughter
Chorus:
Fiddley-I-E Fiddley-I-0
Fiddley-I-E for the one ball Reilly
Rubby dub dub jig balls and all
Rubby dub dub shag on.
I grabbed that she bitch by the hair
Then I threw my left leg over
Shagged and shagged and shagged some more
Shagged and shagged till the fun was over.
Chorus:
There came a knock upon my door
Who should it be but her God-damn Father
Two horse pistols by his side
Looking for the man who shagged his daughter
Chorus:
I grabbed that bastard by the hair
$hoved his head in a pail of water
Shoved those pistols up his ass
A damn sight farther than I shagged his daughter.
Chorus:
Now as I go walking down the street
People shout from every corner
There goes the dirty son of a bitch
The one who shagged O'Reillys daughter.

STAY WITH GOD (Tune - Dashing through the snow
The game was played on Sunday in Heavens own back yard
With Jesus playing quarterback and Moses playing guard
The angels in the bleachers my god how they did yell
When Jesus made a touchdown against the boys from hell.                         (cont)


STAY WITH GOD (Cont.)
Chorus: (Tune - Oh, Them Golden Slippers)
Stay with God, oh lordy, stay with God, oh lordy
Jesus on the one yard line, Moses doin very fine
Stay with God, oh lordy, stay with God, oh lordy
Hoke em, soke em, Jesus poke em, stay with God.
NELLY DARLING (Tune - Nolly Darling) 9
Oh your ass is like a stovepipe Nelly darling
And the nipples on your tits are turning green
There's an odor of blue ointment round your pussy
You are the ugliest bitch that I have ever seen
There fs a yard of lib protruding from your navel
And when you piss you piss a stream as green as grass
There's enough wax in your ears to make a candle
So kindly make one dear and shove it up your ass.
SALLY                                                                     10
Sally's in the alley sifting cinders
Lifted up her leg and farted like a man
Wind from her bloomers broke six winders
Cheeks of her ass Vent BAM BAM BAM,
THE BLOODY GREAT WHEEL                                                   11
An airman told me before he died
And I don't think that the bastard lied
That he had a wife with a cunt so wide
That she could never be satisfied*
So he invented a prick of steel
Driven by a bloddy great wheel
Two br- .*» ball's all filled with cream
And th 'hole fucking issue was driven by steam,
Round ?nd round vmt the bloody great wheel
In and out went the prick of steel
Until at last the maiden cried
Enough ^nough I'm satisfied.
But now we come to the bitte~ bit
There was no way of stopping it
She was split from her ac to her tit
And the whole fucking issue was covored with shit.
I LOVE MY GIRL                                                           12
I love my girl yes I do deud I do
I love her truly
I love the hole that she pluses through
I love her tits tiddly tits tiddly tits
And her nut brown ass hole
I'd eat her shit gobble gobble slurp slurp
With a wooden spoon

A BABBLING BROOK                                                         13
A babbling brook, a shady nook, a girl all dressed ijv yellow
Two snow white tits, two rubby lips, oh you lucky fellow
Between the hours of two and four when he began to! linger
She said, "Young man if you are through, I'll finish with my finger."
So he got up and took a piss, and she got up and farted
He wiped his jock upon her sock, and that is how they parted
Nine days went by, he heaved a sigh, a sigh of pain and sorrow
The pimples pink were on his dink but there'll be more tomorrow
Nino monthes went by and she heaved a sigh, a sigh of pain and sorrow
Two little mutts were in her guts but they'll be out tomorrow,
IVAN SKAVINSKI SKAVAR                                                     14
Oh the harems of Egypt are fair to behold
And the maidens the fairest of fair
The fairest, of Greek, was owned by the shiek
One Abdul Abbulbal Amer
A traveling brothel was brought into town
By a Russian who came from afar
And a challenge went wide, as to who could outride
Count Ivan Skavinske Skaver.
Now Abdul rode by with his hand on his fly
And his balls hanging low with desire
And he wagered a million that he could outride
Count Ivan Skavinski Skavar
So this spectacle great was all set for a date
Twas to be refered by the Czar
And the streets were all lined to see harlots entwined
With Abdul and Ivan Skavar
They met at the trade with their tools hanging slack
And the starters gun punctured the air
They were quick on tins rise, people gasped at the size
Of Ivan Skavinski Skavar
The cunts were all shorn a*id ho rubbers were worn
And Abdul revved up like a car
But he hadn't a hope' 'gainst the long greasy stroke
Of Ivan Skavinski Skavar.
Now when Ivan had won and was* cleaning his gun
He bent down to pick up his pair
When something red hot, up his rear track was shot
And Abdul the bastard was ther.
Then the harlots all screamed and the people yell«4 Queen
They were ordered apa.rt by the Czar
But so fast were they stuck, it was fucking bad l^iek
For Abdul and Ivan Skavar
The cream of the joke when at last they were broke
It was laughed at for years by the Czar
For Abdul, the fool, had left half of his tool
In Ivan Skavinski Skavar.

There once was a girl named Sara McFox
With hair on her cheat and cheeee in her box
She married a man named Patrick McCall
With a very short peter and no balls at all
Chorus:
No balls at all
No balls at all
A very short peter and no balls at all.
Thtf very first night that they were wed
They took off their clothes and went straight to bed
She reached for his pecker, it was very small
She reached for his ball, he had no balls at all.
Now mother dear mother oh what shall I do?
I've married a mah who never can screw
I reached for his pecker, it was very small
I reached for his balls, he had no balls at all.
Oh daughter dear daughter don't be sad
It was the same trouble I had with your dad
There's many a man who will come to the call
Of the wife of a man who has no balls at all
The daughter went home, took her mothers advice
And Tound the results most exceedingly nice
A bouncing youjig baby was born in the fall
To the wife of the man who had no balls at all.

COLD WINTER'S EVENING                                                     18
'Twas a cold winter's evening, the guests were all leaving
O'Leary was closing the bar, When ho turned and said to the lady in red,
Get out! You can't stay where you are*
She shed a sad tear in her bucket of beer, As she though of the cold night ahead,
Then a gentleman dapper stepped out of the crapper,
And these are the words that he said:
Her mother never told her the things a young girl should know
About the ways to fly, fly boys and how they come and go.
Shefs lost her youth and beauty, and life has left its sad scar
So remember your mothers and sisters boys and let her sleep under the bar.
SILVER THREADS AMONG THE GOLD                                            19
Darling let me fix your garter
Just an inch above your knee
And if I should wander farther
Please don!t blame it all on me.
The hair around your pussy's turning silver
The hair around my cock is turning gold
So let's put our Wo things together
Silver threads among the gold.
So she let me fix: her garter
Just an inch above her knee
And my hand did wander farther
And she pissed all over me.
OH THEY SAY THAT THIS KIMPO'S A WONDERFUL PLACE                        20
Oh they say that this Kimpo's a wonderful place
But the organisations a fucking disgrace
There's Captains and Major's and light Colonels too
With their hands in their pockets and fuck all to do
They stand on the ramp and they rave and they shout
And for all of their good they might just as well be
A shoveling shit on the Isle of Capri.
HAVE YOU TRIED IESSUP?                                                   21

Jack Hard-On never tires of it, and neither will you
Oh have you tried Yessup,
The bast breakfast food in the land.
Yess-up-Spelled backwards is Pussy
Spelled sideways is Slur-Slurp


SIX POUNDS OF BOOBIES                                                      22
Six pounds of boobies in a loose brassier
An old used condrum is a glass of beer
A twot that twitches like a mooses ear
These are the things I love,
A dirty whore strolling down the street
A bloody Kotes in the bumbleseat
I love my poontang but I beat ray meat
These are the things I love.
KIMPO BLUES                                                               23
(Tune, A Little Bit of Heaven Fell, etc)
Oh a little bit of shit fell down
Out of the sky one day
And it landed in the Chosen
Oh so very far away.
And when the Senate saw it
It looked so fucking bare
They said that's what wefre looking fo
We111 send our Air Force there.
So they sent their *86*&"
Air Base Group and midics too
And they sent the dreaded 336th
They knew just what to do.
And now you'll find them languished
In a place that's so remote
That all you f 11 hear those bastards shout's
Where are these fucking boats
Chorus:
Ifve got those Kimpo Blues,
Kimchi blues
I'm fed up
And I'm fucked up
And I!m blue.
We tried to please old sygm^n
But it really was a farce
The only thing twas 1ftft to do
Was shove it up his arse*
Chorus:
Oh we found our Alma Mater
In a house in Yor.g Dong Po
The brass got there before us
They showed us where to go

THE MAN BEHIND THE ARMOR PLATED DESK
(Tune - Strip Polka)
Early in the morning when the engines start to roar
You can see the old goat standing, beside his office door
He'll be sweating out the take-off, as he's often done before
The man behind the armor plated door.
Pour times he's led us up there, and he always led us back
For he circled o'er the I.P., as we went in to attack
He said, "I'm hard yet fair boys, but allergic to ack ack*
The man behind the armor plated desk*
And when the target's sighted, who inspires the attack
Who says hundreds may go in lads, but a few aren't coming back
Who says we'll disrefgard the minimum, when you supress the flak
The man behind the &rmor plated desk*
And when the missions over, ahd briefing they should be
You can search the whole field over, but not a pilot will you see
For they'll all be at the 0 Club, with 9 mixed drink in their hand'
Singing The Man Behind the Armor Plated Desk*

THE THINKER                                                               28
The lady of the mansion, was dressing for the ball when she espied a
thinker, pissing up against the wall*
CHORUS:
With his great big kidney wiper and balls as big as three and a yard and
a half of foreskin hanging down below his knee,
The lady wrote a letter and in it she did say,
I'd rather be fucked by the thinker than my husband anyday.
Oh the thinker got the letter and when it he did read
His balls slung ofer his shoulder and his penis by his side*
Oh, he rode up to the mansion, he rode up the hall,
Gorf Blyme? said the butler he has come to fuck us all.
Oh, he fucked them in the parlor, he fucked them on the bede>
Lord aave us! Cried the chambermaids, Wefve lost our maidenheads.
Oh, he fucked the Duchesi standing he fucked her against the walJ^
But when he fucked the butler twas the dirtiest trick of all.
Oh, he rode out from the mansion, he rode into the street.
With little drops of semen pattering at his feet.
Oh, the thinkers dead and buried, I'll bet he's gone to hell
He said hefd fuck the devil and Ifll bet he's done it well.

BESIDE A KOREAN WATERFALL                                           31
Beside a Korean waterfall, one bright and sunny day
Beside his shattered Sabre jet, a young pursuiter lay
His parachute hung from a nearby tree, he was not yet quite dead
So listen to the very last words this young pursuiter said*
I'm going to a better land where everything is bright
Where whiskey flows from telephone poles
Play poker every night.
We haven't got a thing to do, but sit around and sing
And all our crews are women, oh death where is thy sting
Oh death where is thy sting, ting-a-ling
Oh death where is thy sting
The bells of Hell will ring, ting-a-ling
For you but not for me
0h^ ting~a~ling ling, blow it out your ass
T±ng-a~Iing-a-ling ling, blow it out your ass
Ting-a-ling-a-ling ling, blow it out your ass
Better days are coming bye and bye,
YOU CAN TELL A FIGHTER PILOT                                                32
(Tune - Mine Eyes Have Seen the Glory)
By the ring around his eyeball
You can tell a bombardier
You can tell a bomber pilot
By the spread around his rear
You can tell a navigator
By his sextants, maps, and such
You can tell a fighter jockey
BUT YOU CAN'T TELL HIM MUCH
KOREA                                                                     33
(Tune -I'm Looking Over a Four Leaf Clover)
Ifm looking over a well fought over
Korea that I abhor
One for the money
And two for the show
Ridgeway said stay
But we want to go,
Therefs no use explaining
Why we*re remaining
We got what we were fighting for
KOREA, KOREA and diarhea
To make the rice grew soma more ^2


TIPTANKS AND TAILPIPES (THE WALL)                                                3U
(Tune - Bless them All)
Bless them all, bless them all
Bless tiptanks and tailpipes and all
Bless old man Lockheed for building this jet
But I know a guy who is cussing him yet
Cause he tried to go over the wall
The needles did cross, and the wings did come off
With tiptanks and tailpipes and all.
Through the wall, through the wall
Through the bloody invisible wall
That trans sonic journey is nothing but rough
As bad as a ride on the local base base bus
So I'm staying away from the wall
Subsonic for me and that's all
If you're hot you might make it
But you'll probably break it
Your butt and your neck, not the wall.
FATHERS GRATE                                                             35
(Tune - Piccadilly Underground)
Oh they're digging up fathers grave to build a sewer
And they're going at the job at no expense
They're disturbing his remains, to make way for outhouse drains
To satisfy some brand new resident, Gor Blimey
Now father in his day "was never a quitter
And, I don't suppose he'll be a quitter now
He'll dress up in white sheets, and haunt those outhouse seats
And no one there will, sit but he allows, Gor Blimey
Now won't there be some,bloody constipation
And won't those bloody bastards rant and rave
Which is more than they deserve, for having the bloody nerve
To bugger about witty a British workmans grave.
FLAK SHOWERS                                                            36
(Tune- April Showers)
Although Flak showers, may come your way
They'll bring the psjnic, that makes you say
My fuel is Josephine, I'm going home
So if you want to stay and fight, you may
Stay and fight alone.
I've added throttle, I'm on niy way
I'll live to come back some other day
So keep on strafing that position
And knock it out for me
I'm just a close supporter, can't you see


THE AIR FORCE LAMENT                                                       37
(Tune - The Battle Hymn of the Republic)
Mine eyes have seen the days of men who ruled the fighting sky
With hearts that laughed at death, who lived for nothing but to fly
But now those hearts are grounded, and those days are long gone by
The Air Force's gone to hell«
Chorus:
Glory flying regulations, have them read at every station
Crucify the man that breaks them, the Air Force's gone to hell.
My bones have felt their pounding throb, a hundred thousand strong
A mighty airborne legion set to right the deadly wrong
But now it's only memory, it only lives in song
The Air Force's gone to hell*
I have seen them in their T-bolts, when their eyes were dancing flame
I've seen their screaming power dives, that blasted Goering's name
But now they fly like sissies and they hang their heads in shame
Their spirits shot to hell.
Once they flew B-26's through a living hell of flak
And bloody dying pilots, gave their lives to bring them back
But now they all plan ping pong in the operations shack
Their technique's gone to hello
The lordly flying fortress and the liberator too
Once wrote the doom of Germany, with contrails in the blue
But now the skies are empty, and our planes are wet with deV
And we can't fly for hell*
You have heard your pounding 50 fs blase from wings of polished steel
The purring of your Merlin was a song your heart could feel
But now the L-5 charms you with its moanin, groanin squeal
And it won't climb for hell0
Have you ever climbed a lightening up to where the air is thin
Have you stuck her long nose downward, just to hear the screaming din
Have you tried to do it lately, better not you'll auger in
And then you'll sure catch hell.
I have seen them in their Sabre's, when their eyes were dancing flame
I have seen their screaming power dives that blasted Stalin's name
But now they fly like sissies and they hang their heads in shame
Their spirit's shot to hell.
Hap Arnold built a fighting team that sang a fighting song
About the wild blue yonder in the days when men were strong
But now we'(re closely supervised for fear we may do wrong
The Air Force's gone to hell*
We were cocky bold and happy when we played the angel's game
We split the blue with buzzing, and we rooled our way to fame
But now that's all forgotten and we're all so goddamn tame
Our spirits' shot to hell

THE AIR FORCE LAMENT (Conft)
One day I buszed an airfield with another reckless chap
We flew a hot formation with his wingtip in rnjr lap
But there's a new directive and we'll have no more of that
Or you will burn in hell.
Mine eyes get dim with tears when I recall the days of old
When pilots took their choice of being old or young and bold
Alas I have no choice and will live to be quite old
The Air Force's gone to hell.
But smile awhile my pilots though your eyes may still be wet
Someday we'll be in heaven where the rules have not been set
And God will show us how to buzz and roll and really let -
The Air Force fly like hell.
Chorus
Glory no more regulations, rip them down at every station
Ground the guy that tries to make one, and let us fly like hell.
WHEN YOUR LEAVES HAVE TURNED TO SILVER                                      38
(Tune - Silver Threads among the Gold)
When your leaves have turned to silver
Will you love us just the same
Oh, we'll always call you ____________
Isn't it a bloody shame•
To the days at Itazuke
And the parties that we knew
When your leaves have turned to silver
You can stick them up your flue.
PILOTS LAMENT                                                               39
(Tune - If I had the Wings* of an Angel)
Now listen all you pilosis and you airmen
We will tell you a ator,jr sad but true
Of many who wear wings *lmt are not happy
Gather round vrtiile we sing this song t© you*
The many who wear wings but are not happy
Wear a smile on their lips, not in their hjsarts
They're overjoyed to wear the badge of an airman
But are sad in getting off to such bad starts.
A reason there must be for discontentment
Why the gloom as dark as any blacked out loop
Just ask them one and all and they will tell you
Irm not a member ef the 312th Fighter Group,


AIR FORCE 801                                                               40
(Tune - Wabash Cannonball)
Listen to the rumble, and hear ©Id Merlin roar
I'm flying over Moji, like I never flew before
Hear the mighty rush of the slipstream, and hear old Merlin moan
Ifll wait a bit and say a prayer, and hope it gets me home,
Itazuke tower, this is Air Force 801
I!m turning on the downwind leg, my prop has overrun
My coolant's overheated, the gauge says 1-2-1
You'd better get the crash crew, and get them on the run.
Air Force 801 this is Itazuke tower
I cannot call the crash crew, this is their coffee hour
You're not cleared in the pattern, now that is pJLain to see
So take it on around again, we have some VTP's*
Itazuke tower, this is Air Force 801
I'm turning on the downwind leg, I see your biscuit gun
My engine's rxmnin ragged, and the coolant's gonna blow
I'm gonna prang a Mustang, so look out down below.
Itazuke tower, this is Air Force 801
I'm turning on the final, and running on one lung
I'm gonna land this Mustang no matter what you say
I've gotta get my charts fixed up, befor that judgement day.
Air Force 801, this is judgement day
You're in pilots heaven, and you are here to stay
You just bought a Mustang, and you bought it well
The famous Air Force 801 was sent dtraight down to hell.
ITAZUKE ORT                                                                 41
(Tune - When you wore a tulip)
When you flew a Mustang, and I flew a Mustang
In the Itazuke ORT
Other pilots went to briefing
We stayed in the sack a'sleeping
Hotter stones you'll never see
We were hottor than tabasco, when group pulled each fiasco
We excelled in proficiency
When you flew a mustang, and I flew a Mustang
In the Itazuke ORT.
MEET ME IN KYOTO (Tune- Meet Me In St. Louis) 43
Meet me in Kyoto, Moto

Then we'll have a cup of saki
If you * 11 meet me in Kyoto, Moto
Meet mc at the shrine.

BARJRCLE BILL THE PILOT                                                        43
(Tune - Barnacle Bill the Sailor)
The air Corps is the life for me, said Barnacle Bill, the Sailer
I111 jump my ship and leave the sea and be an aviator
I'll fly so high Ifll reach the sky, gravitation I'll defy
I'll make the people moan and cry, said Barnacle Bill, the Sailor,
Pretty soon you * 11 lose that grin, said the fair young maiden
Pretty soon you'll lose that grin, said the fair young maiden
I'm rough and tough, I know my stuff, said Bill, the Aviator
I'll fly this ship till I've had enough, said Bill, the Aviator
I know a trut, I know a fin, I know a barrel roll and a spin
I knew a prop, I know a knjck, and 1 know an elevator.
You're out of gas and must go down, wailed the fair young maiden
You're out of gas and must go down, wailed the fair young maiden
I'm a coksyed Finn if I'll give in, roared Bill the Aviator
I'll fight this ship with a flynrs grin, roared Bill, the Aviator
He kicked the bar and pulled the stick, which didn't seem to do the trick
And he hit the gound l:ke a ton of brick, poor Barnacle Bill, the Sailor.
Here's some flowors for his grave, sobbed the fair young maiden
Here's sme flowors for his grave, sobbed the fair young maiden

You'll fly with Pete and the angels sweet, and you will never mind,
Oh, we're just a bunch of Air Force lads, and we don't give a damn
About the groundling's point of view and all that sort of ham
We want a hundred thousand ships of each and every kind
And now we've got ©ur own Air Force, so we will never mind.
Now we're the operations bunch, and we don't give a damn
About those paper shufflin types, with heads just like a ham,
We want a hundred planes or so, all ready on the line
And they can pad those swivel chairs, and we will never mind
Oh, come and get your brassy rank as high as you desire
You're riding on a gravy train, when you're in the Admin' mire
The ones and fours have room for more, or so they always find
With noses in place, we don't mean on the face, you will never mind.
THE LITTLE GREY RAT                                                         45
OH the pale moon shone on the bar-room floor
The Bar .was closed for the night
Then out of his hole came the little grey rat
And he sat in the pale moonlight
He lapped up the liquor on the bar-room floor
And back on his haunches he sat
An all night long you could hear him call
Bring on your goddamn cat*
OFF WE GO                                                                   46
(Tune - USAF Song)
Back we come, off of a one hour test hop
From over the land and over the sea
For this feat we get a raise in rank
Ten d&ys leave, and a DFCP
Heros all, as you can judge by medals
Got a lot, and we'll get some more
We're out to conquer, and we will
For nothing can stop the U.S. Air Force


TITANIC                                                                     47
Oh, they built the ship Titanic, and whan they had it through
The thought they had. a ship, that the water would never c$nie through- •
But the Lord- Almighty's hand, said the ship would never land
It was sad when that great ship went down*
Chorue,:
Oh it was sad, Oh it was sad
It W5 3 sad xtfhcn that great ship went down
Ts the bottom of the —
Husbands and wives, little bittie children lost their lives
It was sad when that great chip went down-
T'was on a Tuesday ms«rn, they were nearing Englands shore
And the rich refused to associate with the po@r
So they put the poor below where they were the first to go
It was sad when that great ship tfent down*
They were nearing England a shors and were heading for the dock
"When the eld ship Titanic began to reel and rock
Oh the captain tried to wire but the wire was on fire
It was sad when that grsat ship went down*
Then the ship began to list, and the lights began to flicker
And a drunk cried out, aay God where is my likker
So they brought out the bottle and they passed it all around
It was -sad when that great ship went down.
They swung the lifeboats out, o9er the dark and stormy sea
And the band struck up with Nearer My God to Thee
Little children wept and cried as the waves swept ©*er the side
It was sad when that great ship went down*
CHICKEN SONG                                                               48
We had some chickens, b-n eggs would they lay
We had some chickens, :rw> eggs would they lay
Ky wife said, honey, ifcfs striking funny
We're losing money, no <*ggs would they lay
On day the raster flew into the; yard
And caught the poo chickens completely off guard
They're laying eggs now,   Just like they used to
Ever since that rooster,   flew into the yard
They're laying egg« now,   juat like they used to
Ever since that rooster,   flew into the yard*

Whon I spiod a farmer man with his pitchfork in his hand
It was sad when my napalm went down,
Chorus:

When I spied a church below a,nd I let my rockets go
It was sad when those rockets went down,
Chorus:
It was sad, oh it was fad
It was sad when those rockets went down (hit the steeple)
All the people ran like hell
When tbsse rockets hit the bell
It was sad when those rockets went down.
It was up by Sinojiju where I krjow I was through
The 50 fs and 40 !s had shot my turbine through
It was when I hit the silk, oh my God I strained my milk
It was sad when that pilot went down.
Chorus:

It was sad when that pilot went down (hit th© bottom)
There were husbands and wives

It was sad when that pilot went down.
AND I LEARNED ABOUT FLIING FROM HIM                                        50
(Tune - I learned about Women from Her)
I've handled the stick and the rudder
I've flown quite a lot in my time
Ifve had my share of instructors
And some of the bunch were fine
A bowlegged follow fr©m Princetown
And one that was trained at Cornell
And a fellow from Brooks, but they gave him the hooks
And the Shavetail that gave me hell,                                                              (Cont.)


AND I LEARNED ABOUT FLiJUtt FHUH WM (Cent.)

Hefd «et her dewn en three peints
And leep her te beat the band
But when I went up fer a sele
The Jennie was steady and trim
Well, I landed that ship, but I busted my hip
And I learned abeut flying frem him.
The man frem Cernell was a bad ene
A sen-ef-a-gun I will say
The dirty tail-spin he gave me
Will last fer many a day
I denated a lunch te the ceckpit
But he dived and spun her again
He gave me a hewl when I ducked fer the cewl
And I learned abeut flying frem him.
The fellew frem Breeks Used the Gespert
And he talked threugh a leng rubber tube ♦
All that I heard was his swearing
He spetted me fer a beeb
IfU never ferget ene bad tailspin
He yelled, kicked the rudder yeu simp
But I didn*t kick, I wust wiggled the stick
And I learned abeut flying frem him*
At last I came te fermatien
And teek a fast ship frem the line
I made the first turn a gumming
And breught her back upright just fine
I sped up the ship witheut thinking
And hit number twe in th$ wing
And — when I ge well, the GO gave me hell
And I learned abeut flying frem him*

WRECK pP OLD '97                                                           51
There were 97 airplanes warming up en the apren
Net eneugh reem yeu ceuld see
Ne the first ninety-six were ef recent censtructien
Bust the last ene was a Fifty-ene D*                                                              (Cent*)


WRECK OF OLD *97 (Cent.)
She was aid '97 and she had a fine record
But she hadnrt been flown that year
And she creaked and groaned when they started her engine
For she knew that her time was near,
A Second Liewtenant wandered into operations
And he asked for a ship or two
And they said, "Young man* we are very short of airplanes
But we'll see what we can do.
ftNow the first forty-seven are reserved for Majors
And the Captains have the next forty-nine
But there's one more ship on the end of the apron
The last ship upon the line.
He was headed for Wonju and from there to Chinhae
And he had to make that flight
So he said, "O.K., if you give me a clearance
I will get there sometime tonight."
Oh, he flew over Taejen and the Taegu airstrip
And the ceiling began to fall
And the clouds closed down on the tops of the mountains
And couldnft see the ground at all
He flew through the rain and he flew through a snowstorm
Till the light began to fail
When he found a railroad going in his direction
And he said, f,Ifll get there by rail J1
He flew down a valley and he dodged through the mountains
And he kept that road in sight
Till the rails disappeared through a hole in the mountains
And he ended his last long flight.
There was old 97, withher nose in the mountain
And her wheels upon the trafak
And her throttle was ben* in the forward position
But her ingin was facing back,
Now ladies please listen and heed my warning
From this time ever on
Nover speak harsh words to your flybey husband
He may leave yeiv and never return.
SAFE HAND MAIL                                                                   f 52
(Tune - Wreck of the Old 97)
They gave him his orders at old Itaauka
Saying, "Bill, you're way behind time."
Take this safe hand mail in your way weary mustang
And put 'er in Nagoya on time.                                                                                  (Crajb1*^


SAFE HAND MAIL (Cent*)
Bill turned and he said to his black, greasy, crew chief
"IS my spam-can ready to roll?11
Just head !er dewn the runway and open up the throttle
And Ifll call Camel Control,"
There was one dark cloud between Befu and Nagoya
But Bill was a gauge pilot bold
It was in this cloud that he spun all his gyros
And his Mustang did three snap rolls.
He came roarin1 down the bottom doin1 a million miles an hour
When the tip-tanks came off with a scream
They found him in the wreck with his hand on the throttle
Still flying the Tokyo beam,,
Fare-thee well, oh fare-thee well
Old Bill broke his mustang all to hell
There'll be no more suki-hacki at good old Itazuke
Fare-thee well, oh fare-thee well*
MOONSHINE                                                                   53
(Tune - You are my Sunshine)
You! are my moonshine, my only moonshine
Y*u guide my fighters, when skies are grey
I chase your bogies, from here to Moji
Just to find they have gone the other way,
The other day beys, as I was flying
I heard moonshine controller say
"I've got a bogie down by Kurume
Won?t you head your jet that-a-way?n
He said he had me in radar contact
And I believed him like a dope
I flew to Moji - and still no bogie
He had chased a fly across the scope*
You were my moonshine, my only moonshine
How could jmn let ma down this way
My chute was swingin1 - they heard me singin1
Won't you take ray moonsnine away*


HERE'S TO THE REGUUR AIR FORCE                                               54
(Tune - My Bonnie Lic# Over The Ocean)
OBn peace time the regulars are happy
In peace time they're happy to serve
But let them get into a fracas
and they'll call out the God Damn reserves
Chorus: Call out. Call out
Call out the God Damn Reserves, reserves
Call out, Call out
Oh, call ©ut the God Damn reserves .
Here's to the regular Air Force
They have such a wonderful plan
Tfiey call up the God Damn reservist
Whenever the shit hits the fan.
The call up every oipl pilot
They call up every young Stan
The reservists they go to Korea
The regulars stay in Jap^n«
Here's to the rgular Air Force
With medals and badges galore
£f it weren't for the God Damn reservist
Their ass would be dragging the floor.
Chorus 2: Fight on, fight on,
Fight on regular Air Force
Fight on, fight on,
Fight on, fight on
Fight on regular Air Force

SPRING TIME ON THE YALU                                                     55
(Tune - When It's Spring Time in the Rockies)
When it's spring time on the Yalu and the Mig's come out to play
And the contrails run in circles, fighter pilots earn their pay
We'll hold our triggers steady when our sights are zeroed in
We'll hold our glasses ready when they pass out rum and gin.
When it's spring time on the Yalu and the mapalm is in bloom
And your 50's do the talking and it|s jus a Mig and you
Once again you'll hear whisper that my fuel is running low
When it? s spring time on the Yalu then it' s time for us to go.

TO THE REGULARS                                                                    56.
(Tune = Mr, and Mrs, Mississippi)
I won't forget Kerea
I can't forget Kunsan
Fer Syngman Rhee and Jee Stalin
Have made me f e«JL at heme
I flew acres© the bembline
And get a h^le or two
But all I get was a creek ef shit
Frem yeu and yeu and you:,
Cherus:
Oh I was called te risk my ass
and save the U,N. tee
But all I get was a creek ef shit
Frem yeu and yeu and yeu
The AA was terrific
The small arms were intense
While flybeys bombed the front lines
The division did the rest
While the regulars held their desk jobs
The reserves were calld en masse
The U. N. knew the air reserve
was the one to save their ass.
I love you dear old USA
With all my aching heart
If I hadn't joined the damn reserves
Wefd never've had to part
But we won't cry and we won't sgaawk
For we are not alone
For one of these days the regularfsfll come
And we can all go home,
Now we don't mind the hardships
We've faced them in the past
But we wonder if out congressmen
Have had forties up their ass
We have to fight to save the peace
That't what the bastards said
But when you check the casualties
You'll find no senators dead,
I'm going to raise a family
When this was is through
I hope to have a bouncing boy
To tell my stories to
But someday when he grows up
If he joins the air reserve
I'll kick his ass frem dawn to du*
For that's what he'll deserve.


CO-PHOTS LAMENT                                                              57
(Tune-The Cowboys Lament)
I'm the co-pilot. . o I sit on the right
It's up to me to be quick and bright
I never talk back, far IT11 have regret
And I must remember what the captain forgets,
I amke out the flight plan and study the weather
Pull up the gear* and stand by to feather
Make out the mail farms and do the reporting
And fly the old crate when the captain is snaring*
I take the readings and adjust the power
Put an the heaters when we'er in a shower
Tell where we are on the darkest night
And do all the book xvork without any light.
I call for my coaptain and buy him cokes
I always laugh at his corpy jokes
And ence in a while when his landings are rusty
I come through with, "Gawd, but it's gusty,"
All in all, I'm a general stooge
As I sit to the right of this man scrooge
But maybe someday with great understanding
He111 s ©ften a bit and geve me a landing •
BOZZIN1 BUDDIES                                                                 58
A fighter pilot lay dying
The medics* had left him for dead
All around him women were crying
And these are the -words that he said*
Take the tailpipe out of my stomach
Take the burner out of my brain
Take tho turbine out of my kidney
And assemble the unit again.
For ws are tho boys who fly high in the sky
Bosrm buddies while boozin.1
We are the b®ys they sent out to die
Bodom buddies while bosinf*
Up in headquarters they sin and they shout
Talking of things they know nothing about
We are the boys who fly high in the sky
Eoaam buddies while boezin*
Bosom Fuddles while bcosin1,
Bosom Buddies while bo$zin!.


STAND TO TOUR GLASSES                                                        59
A p«#r aviat#r lay a~dying
At the end *f a bright summer day
And his cemrads were gathered areund him
Te carry his fragments away.
Oh, his bird was piled on his wishbone
And his engine was wrapped around his head
And he wore a spark plug on each elbow
Twas plain he would shortly be dead,
Oh, he spat out a valve and a gasket
As he stirred in the sump where he lay
And to his sorrowing comrades
These brave parting words he say.
I'll be riding a cloud in the morning
With no merlin before me to course
So come along and get busy
Another lad now wants the hearse.
Take the manifold out of ray larynx
And the cylinder out of my brain
Take the piston rods out of my kidneys
And assemble the engine again,
With rusted fifties and rockets
With pilots as old as they seem
We fly these worn out mustangs
Against the MIG-15*
Forgotten by the land that bore us
Betrayed by the ones we held dear
The good have all gone before us
And only the dull are still hear.
So stand to your glasses steady
This world is a world full of lies
Here?s a toast to those dead already
And here's to the next man to die.

I WANTED WINGS                                                             61
I wanted wings till I got the god-damned things
Now I donTt want them any more
They taught me how to fly then they sent me off to die
I've had a bally dull of war
You can save those Zero's for the god-damned heros
Distinguished Flying Crosses do not compensate for losses, Buster
Chorus:
I wanted wings till I go the god-damned things
Now I don't want them any more.
Ifll take the dames while the rest go down in flakes
I've no desire to be burned
Air combat spells romance, but it. makes me wet my pants
I'm not a fighter I have learned
lou can save those Mlisubitci's for those other sona-o-bitches
Cause I'd rather lay a woman than be shot down in a Brumman, Buster
Now, I'm too young to die in a damned old PBT
That's for the eager not for me
I won't trust to luck to be picked up by a duck
After I've crashed into the sea
Cause I'd rather be a bell hop than a flyer on a flat top
Vith my hand around a box-tie not around a god-damned throttle, Bustar.
Now I don't care to tour over Berlin or the Ruhr
Flak always makes me lose «y lunch
I get a urge today, when thr*r holler bombs away
For there?s one thing you c?n?t laugh off
And that's when they shoot your . ss off
For l?d rather be home buster wriZa :»*y •" 's then with a cluster, .Buster♦
They leod U5 lousy chow but we stay alive somehow
On d^hydr^ted eggs and milk and slew
Tr^l wxll they think of next? They911 be dehydrating sex
And en that day I'll tell the coach I'm through
For I dearly love my humpin0, and I'd love to do some pumpin'
Iji, I'd rablier ccme with chowder, than to come with lumps of powder, Buster
ll'/t the day thac we bombed Mats, 1 ran out of cigaretts

I WANTED WINGS                                                               62
(Korean Version)
I wanted wings till I got the god-dawn things
Now I don't want them any more
I don't want a tour in Korea that's for sure
I've had a belly full of war
I don't want my fanny frozen
In that putrid land of Chosen
Fighting MIG's of Uncle Joe's
In an atmosphere that's frigid frozen, buster
I wanted wings till I got the god-damn things
Now I don't want them anymore*
I dpn'twant to die over Antung in the sky
MIG's always make me barf my lunch
For me there's no Hey, Hey, screaming
Bogies that-a-way
I'd rather be home with the bunch
Now there's one thing you can't laugh off
And that's when they shoot your ass off
I would rather be home buster
With ray ass than with a cluster, Buster
I wanted wings till I got the god-damn things
Now I don't want them any more.

GOOD OLD MOUNTAIN DEW                                                    M
Chorus: They call it that good old mountain dew
And them that refuee it are few
I'll hush up my mug if you'll fill up my jug
With that good old mountain dew.
There's an old hollow tree, down the road here from me
Where you lay down a dollar or two
Then, you go around the bend, and when you come back again
Your jug is full of that good old mountain dew
My brother Bill, has a still on the hill
Where he runs off a gallon or two
The buszards in the sky, get so drunk they can't fly
Just from smelling that good old mountain dew.
Now my cousin Mort, he is sawed off and short
Only measures bout four foot two
But he thinks he's a giant, when you give him a pint
Of that good old mountain dew.
My old aunt June, bought some brand new perfume
And it had such a sweet smelling phew
But to her surprise, when she had it analized
It was nothing but good old mountain dew.
The flask gets so thick, that it makes you feel aick
When you've been on a rail cut or two
But you'll never abort, if they'll give you a snort
Of that good old mountain dew*
BLOOD ON YOUR TUNIC                                                         65
An Air Force Lieutenant to Pusan did stole
He'd just come back from a raid on Seoul
When an old MP Sgt said, "Pardon me, sir
Theres1 blood on your tunic and mud on your knees."
Chorus: La de a, La de a
Ther's blood on your tunic
and mud on your knees
Now look here Sgt, you bloody damn fool
I've just come back from a raid on Seoul
Where ack ack is flying and comforts are few
And brave men are dying for bastards like you
Now the old MP Sgt said, Pardon, me sir,
But on the Lt. I meant no slur
But the girls down in pusan are hard to please
With blood on your tunic and mud on your knees!"


THE PO RIVER VALLEY                                                         66
(Tune-Red River Valley)
To the Po river valley we're going
For to gut us some trains and some tracks
But if I had my say-so about it
Ifd still be back home in the sack
Come and sit by my side at the briefing
Do not hasten to bid me adiew
To the Po river valley we're going
And I'm flying four in flight blue.
We went for to check on the weather
And they said it was clear as can be
Now I lost my wingraan ' round the field
And the rest angered in out at sea,
S-2 said ther's no flak where we're going
S-2 said there's no flak on the way
There's a dark overcast o'er the target
I'm begining to doubt what they say
A spitfire went by like a whirlwind
And a mustang ivent by like a breeze
And a C~46 with one feathered
Went by towing five L-3fs.
To the Po river valley we're going
And many strange sights we will see
But the one there that held my attention
Was the flak that they threw up at me.
FAREWELL TO ANTUNG UNIVERSITY                                               67
Farewell to Antung University, I have risen to reality
Forty thousand is no place for me, with MIG-lS's in the vicinity
With cannon balls flying all around, Makes me wish that I'd stayed on
the ground,
I should join the infantry, or take the Navy and go out to sea.
Where did red leader go, when I called out "Bingo"
That's what I'd like to know, just where in the hell did he go
He called "Red flight, BREAK RIGHT," all I did was tuck in tight
He climbed up in the sun and that's where the fun begun!
Flashes behind me, flashes around
Flashes above me, and flashes on the gound*
I called "Red leader, where in the hell did you roam?"
Clear yourself and ride the mach cause I am going home!"


BLESS THEM ALL                                                             68
Bless them all, Bless them all
The needle, the airspeed the ball
Bless all the instructors
Who taught me to fly
Sent me up to solo and left me to die
So if ever your blow jet should stall
You're due for one hell of a fall
No lillies or violets for dead fighter pilots
So cheer up my lads, Bless them all
Bless them all, Bless them all
The long and the short and the tall
Bless all the sergeants
The sour puss ones
Bless all the Corporals and their dopey sons
Cause wefre saying goodby to them all
The long and the short and the tall
Xhere'll be no promotions this side of the ocean
So while we are here bless them all
CHITOSE BLUES                                                                69
(Tune-Cigaretts nad Whiskey)
Once I was happy and had a dear wife
I had enough Yen to last me for life
I met a josan who was on the make
The bath it was hot and the Josan was too
If you go to Asmuchi my boys your are through
I went to my room, some sleep for to get
She said no sleep boy, with me therfs no sweat
I woke the next morning at quarter past ten
She says, "Hey Yankee, that!s four thousand Yen."
Ifm back in Chitose where we sing and we shout!
Me and the Doc are sweating it out
He gave me some pills from a ivg on the shelf.
Then he poured out a dozen or two for himself.
Chorus t
Cigaretts and Saki and wild wild Josans
They'll drive you crazy, they'll drive you insane
Cigaretts and Saki and wild wild Josans
They111 drive you crazy, they'll drive you insane


KUNI-RI AND ANTUNG                                                          70
(Tune - Cigaretts and Whiskey)
Once I wax happy and had a good deal
Fle^r Fccv-Eighty-olxed at old Victorville
They askod for a volunteer, said, "I'll take you11
The ne:<£ tiling I knew I was stuck in Taegu.
Chorus: Kuni-ri and Antung, and wild wild Pyong-yang
They'll drive you crasy, they'll drive you insane
Quad fifties and forties and one hundred sorties
They'll drive you crazy, they'll drive you insane
V7e go down to briefing while it is still night
We lift off the runway before it is light
We form in the gloom and we're off on our way
We're over the target before it is day.
We're up to the Yalu, there's cons overhead
We think of the Wheels who are snug in their beds
We drop our big tips and we break to the right '
"Josie" vre cry with all of our might,
We steer on 280, we're up in the soup
We swear that the leader is doing a loop
Break out in the clear and set down on K~2
Be careful or willie will write about you.
Oh the chosen i3 frozen and all wet with ice
From thirty-five thousand she looks mighty nice
Bus ask a foot soldier and he'll set you plumb straight
It's covered with Red3 blood imbeded with hate.
Oh the MIG is a blot on the whole human race
A man is a monkey to give one a chase
Here's my description, take warning dear brother
There's fire on one end, but cannons on the other.
Went up to MIG alley, JS-2 said "No sweat"
If I hadn't looked 'round, I'd be up there yet
Six MIG's jumped our ass, and the leader yelled "BREAK"
Got back to K-10, how my knees they did shake.
If I fly a hundred and they ask for more
I'LI tell them to jam it, my ass is too sore
They can ram it and jam it for all that I care
Just give me a VJing Job, a desk and a chair.
I went on ray mission to cut a rail track
They said, "There's no sweat 'cause ther ain't any flak"
But the guns from that place would make day out of night
Oh god how I wish all I did was dbg fight


KUNI-RI AND ANTUNG (Cont.)
Oh itf s up to the Xalu in my flying machine
The Sui-Ho Reservoir is plainly seen
But MIGfs out of Antung send sweat down my back
So I head towards Kanggye and get shot, down by flak*
I grabbed those two handles and squeezed---what a sound
A kick in the ass, soon I!m floating towards ground
I shoed them by blood shit, they said, f,No sweat Mac11
They hand me an A frame, now I!m walking back,
HUTCH'S BALLAD (Tune-Sure a Little Bit of Heaven)                              71
Sure, our target it -was blinkers
Way out in the hills so grand
Located in Korea, right next to no mans land
Our fans now they were G.I.fs
And they thought our Mustangs grand
As we circled o'er the target
Watching ♦Willie Peter" land
But our controller was neurotic
Near the ground he wouldn!t go
We toggled off our babies
And we watched them hit below
He had placed his rockets wildly
And heTd fouled the whole damn show
But when we got the grading
Sure it was Zero - Zero
Sure, a little bit of airplane fell
From out the sky one day
It landed west of Pyongyang
Not very far away
Comet Red won't be coming back
It made us very blue
But we went on to our target
And we dropped our babies true.
So we sprinkled it with fifties
Just to keep their heads down low
Then we hurried back to S~2
To lie about our show
When you read it in the papaers
All about the 18th!s capers
You will know itfs propaganda
For old Barcus, Bless his soul.

SAVE A FIGHTER PILOTS ASS                                                     73
(Tune-Throw a nickel on the Drum)
It was midnight in Korea
All the pilotz were in bed
When up starred Colonel ____________________________
And this is vh.it ho said,
"Sabres, gerjtle Sabres, Sabres one and all
Pilot3,. Gentle Pilots, And all the pilots BALLS
When up stepped a young Lieutenant
With a voice as harch as brasa
You can take tho3o God Damn Sabre Jets and shove them up your astf.n
Cruijin;; doT,/n the Yaiu, doing six-twenty per
There earr.e a call from the Major, Oh won't you save me sir
Got three bis flak holes in my wings, my tanks ain't got no gps
Mayday, Mayday, Mayday, got six KEG's on my ass,
I shot my traffic pattern, to me it looked all right
The airspeed read one-thirty, my God I racked it tight
The airframe gave a shudder, the engine gave a wheeze
Mayday, Mayday, Mayday, spin instructions please.
Fouled up my erosswind landing, the left wing hit the ground
There/ came .a call from the tower, pull up and go around
I racked that Sabre in the air a dozen feet or more
The engine quit, I almost shit, the gear came through the floor♦
Split S onto my bomb run, I got too God Damn low
I pressed the bloody button, Let both my babies go
I sucked the stick back in my gut, I hit a high speed stall
Now I wonft see my mother when the works all done this fall
They sent me up to Pyongyang, the brief said f,Skoshe ack ackH
But by the tine I got there, my wings were holed by flak
My aircraft went into a spin, it would no longer fly
Mayday, Mayday, Mayday, I am too young to die
I bailed out from the Sabre, my landing was top line
With my S and E equipment, I made for our front line
When I opened up my ration time, to see what was in it
My God D*mn Quartermaster, had filled the thing with shit. (Cent,)


SAVE THE FIGHTER PILOTS ASS (Cent.)
Now in this Commie prison camp, I am obliged to sit
For one cannot go very far, on a ration tin of shit
If I am ever free again, I will no longer fly
But I'll have Quartermaster bollix, for breakfast till I die,
Chorus: Oh Halleluia, Oh Halleliua, Throw a nickel on the grass
Save fighter pilots ass
oh Halleluia, Oh Halleluia, Throw a nickel on the grass
And you111 be saved
Oh, while rolling down the runway, and headed for the ditch
I looked down at my prop, My God it's in high pitch
I pulled back on the stick, and rose into the air
Glory, Glory Halleluia, How did I get there.
The boys up from the other group, they think they are so hot
They brag about the "Bluetails", that they've so often shot
One thing they donft remember, when are they holler and hoot
Is to look into their mirror, just before they shoot.
I hear we're leaving Europe, they say we're going home
They tell us no more wandering, never more we'll roam
But the Colonels up at Langley, are planning on the sly
Just where they're gonna send us, on our next TDY.
I started on my takeoff, I thought the flaps were down
But when I pulled the gear up, the dive brake scraped the ground
The General he smiled at me, he thought it was great fun
But then I met the FEB, Chitose here I come*
We flew our Sabres through the war, we flew them far and fast
But when the war was over, we knew it couldn't last
They sent our old instructiors, to teach us all their tricks
So now we're flying training, behind those dirty pricks*
Letting down frm forty-four, busting through macb-
That Sabre Jet was moving now , falling like a rock
My boom was aimed right at the field, there was an awful sound
Since we're flying training now, I'm sitting on the ground.
I started up into a loop, I thought that I was clear
I pulled up under Colonel Blood, I thought the end was near
I went before the F.E.B., and they gave me the works
Gory, Glojcy Halleluia, what a bunch of jerks.
Strafin' on the panel, I made my pass too low
There came a call from Melrose, ffOme more and home you go"
I pulled that Sabre in the blue, she hit a high speed stall
Now I won't see my mother, when the work's all done this fall
Now I'm in the gutter, with pretzles in my beer
With pretzels in Try whiskers, I knew the end was near
Then came this glorious Air Force, to save me from the worst
Everybody bust a butt and sing the second verse.


PUSAN U                                                                     74
(Tune - Sioux City Sue)
We were roaming round the country side, fTwas down near Pusan bay
We stepped into a local bar
To pass the time away
I met a gal from old Chin Ju
She was a sight to view
I asked her where she came from
and she said, "Punsan U,f!
Chorus: Oh Pusan U, Oh Pusan U
The finest school in all the land
The University that's grand
Oh pusan U, Oh Pusan U
I hail my Alma Mater
Oh Pusan, to you
I enrolled in that great college
Founded by Kim Pac Su
fTwas built of honey buckets
So they called it Pusan U
The smell it was terrific
But fortune saw me through
So now I lift this glass
to the school of Pusan U
Chorus: Oh Pusan U, Oh Pusan U
Your course is good for engineers
A-frames, ox carts pulled by sheers
Oh Pusan U, Oh Pusan U
I hail my Alma Mater
Oh Pusan, td you
I saw a girl most beautiful
She was a sight to view
She won a beauty contest
She was crowned Miss Pusan U
They spotted her in Hollywood
Now she's a star there too
When asked to what sfce owes her fame, She says, "Oh Pusan U#*
REPEAT FIEST CHORUS:
We have an A-l baseball team
We win our cames straight through
They ask us where we come from'
And we say, Pusan U,
We have a pitcher who, is tops
Our batters are good too
And very time we come to' bat
The crowd yells, !tPusan U,n
REPEAT SECOND CHORUS:


STRAFIN' ROUND THE MOUNTAIN                                                 75
(Tune - She'll be Comin Round the Mountain)
Now listen all you airmen young and old
To the tale of Fighter Pilots young and bold
With their fighters painted yellow
Leaping off to contact Mellow
In the crisp Korean air so blue and cold,
It was dive bomb old Sinuiju, stop the Reds
Eight one thousand pounders loader, instand heads
Four birds lined up on the runway
Wish Ifd gone to church on Sunday
Hope we catch those lousy Commies in their beds
Twenty thousand over Pyongyang on Northwest
Gas Mask flight about to face the acid test
Till at last the Yalu Riv$r
Which makes my liver quiver
With flak guns lined up twenty-four abreast*
Dusty clouds roll up from Antung cross the way
Twenty swept wing Chinese War birds out to play
Thirty-sevens, twenty-threes
All lit up like Christmas trees
Tip tanks salvoed off we leap into the fray.
Kimpo tower clear the pattern in great haste
Twenty victory roll our pilots do with grace
It was thrilling, it was hairy
Near that privilidged sanctuary
Synghmafc Rhee will soon be president of this place.
Kimpo tower this is Gas Mask Willie Four
I am heading hime, I9m throigh with this damn war
Cause they're sending back to Moscow for some more
A NAVY PRAYER                                                               76
Our father, who art in Washington
Truman is thy name

And forgive us our accusations

Lead us not into temptation
But deliver us from Matthew and Johnson
For thine is the power
the B-36 and the Air Force
Forever and ever. Airmen


THE SCOTCH WEDDING                                                         77
Prelude: There was a ball a bloody great ball, the ball of Kerrie Muir
Four and twent prostitutes shaggin on the moor
Qh the King was in his counting house, counting out his wealth
The Queen was in the bed room, playing with herself.
Chorus: Singing I!H do ye this time, IJ11 dee it noo
The mon that did it last night, could na do it noo
Oh the i>ride was in the bedroom, explaining to the groom
Theyvaglna not the rectum, ia the entrance..to the wom$>
Oh the parsons wife she wa* ther* seated dotm in front
A wreath of rosses around her neck, a carrot up her cunt.
Oh the village parson he wm theret, and very surprised to see
Four; and twent maidenheads hang^tfg ££om a tree.
Oh the parsons daughter she was ther, she had them all in fit*
Diving off the mantlepiecs, and lm$itig mhw tits.
They were fucking in the jfes^olte, fucMng in the ricks
You could "na hear the musis for the slushing of the pricks
They were fucking in the barley* fucking in the oats
Some were fucking sheep and am® m$M fiieking goats
Oh the village blacksmi&h^ fee ms 4£h&$* H& hmm&r and his awl*
Talking to the queen and ahsiiig *i9t III* fealis
♦They were fucking in the pallors, fucking on the stairs
You could na see the carpets for the «ome and curly hairs
The village idiot he was there, a making like a fool
Pulling his foreskin over his head and>wh&rtling through his tool.
Plowman Jack he was there, the bugger would na dance
Sitting with a hard on, and waiting for hie chance.
The fierey Colonel he was ther, he1d fit amongst the Boers
He jumped upon the table and shouted for the shores
The village cripple he was ther, he couldna do ver much
So he laid them on the carpet, and he fucked them with is crutch
The chimmeysweep and he was the there, we had to put him oot
For every time he farted, he filled the room with soot
the yillage postman he was there, he had a dose of pox
He couldna fuck his lassie so he fucked the letter box
And when the ball was over, and the folks went home to rest
They said they enjoyed the music, but the fucking was the best.
CHORUS:
THE Village smithy he was there, he wouldn't play the games
He frigged a lassie fourteen times, before he finally came
Twas the gathering of the clan. And all the lads were there
A grabbin1 all the lassies aM fieigginr without a care.


THE PI5RJIAN KITTY                                                            78
The Persian kitten perfumed c:k\ fair
Stopped out m the girclen to ^et &ome air
A torn cu lanky, lean, .md long
Dirty and yellow Come along
He sniffed at the per finned Persian cau
As she walked by with much eclat
Thinking of a little time to pass
Ivhispered, 'Kitten, you sure got class"
Now fitting and proper the k Ltten replied
As she arched one whisker over her eye
"I've been raised on lillows of silk,
Never drank nothing but certified milk"
Oh I should be happy with all that I got
I should be happy,, but happy I am not
I diould be happy, happy indeed.
For you see I'm highly pedigreed"
Cheer up said the torn cat with a smile
Just trust your new found friend for awhile
You donft have to leave your own back fence
For kitten all you need is experience
Tales of joy he then unfurled
As he told her the story of the our side world
Then suggested with a luried laugh
That they take a little trip down the primrose path
Horning after the night before
Uhen the kitten returned at the hour of four
The innocent look on her eye had went
And the smile on her face was the smile of content
Months later when the came
To vie those kittens of edigreed fame
The;)' weren?t persian, they were black and tan
And she told fem that their father was a travelin' man
A rack em up, shack em up travelin1 man.
TATOOED LADY                                                               79
(Tune~My Indiana Home)
I married me a tatooed lady
To roam around her body was a treat
And ev^ry night before retireing
I?d piill tne cover3 back and take a peek
Around her waist was Pennsylvania, and on her hip was Tennessee
And tatooed on her back was dear old Hackensack
From the state of New Jersy
Now on her chest was West Virginia
Througn t,hose hills I loved to roam
But when I suw the moonlight shining on the wabash
Then I recognised my Indiana home,

TAEGU GIRLS
We are from Taegu, Taegu are we
We don9t believe in virginity — Oh horse-shit
We don't use candles we use broom handles
We are the Taegu girls
And every night at twelve on the clock
We watch the white man piss on the ROK
We like the way he handles his cock
We are the Taegu girls.
And every year at our annual dance
We go around without, any pa^ts
We like to give those pilots a chance
We are the Taegu, talk abput your Taegu, We are the taegu girls.


POOR LITTLE ANGELINE                                                     82
Ghe was sw^et sixteen, she was the village queen
Pur and innocent was Angeline
She never nad a thrill, was a virgin still
Poor little Angeline„
Now at the village fair, the Squire was there
Masturbating on the village square
IJhan he chanced to see, the dainty little knee
Of poor little Angelina*
Co he raised his hat, and he said your cat
Has been ridden ofer and smashed quite flat
But it isn5t far, and I've got my car
Poor little Aigeline,,
Now they hadnft gone far,, when he stopped the car
And dragged her into the nearest bar
Where he filled her with gin, to tempt her to sin
Poor little Angeline,
When he'd filled her quite well, he dragged her to a dell
Where he attempted to give her hell
By trying his luck, at a low down fuck
With poor little Angeline
With a cry of rape, he raised he cape
Poor little girlie there was no escape
Unless someone came, to save the name
Of poor little Angeline*
Now the blacksmith bold, had a heart of gold
Been her lover for years untold
And he promised to be true, and faithful too
Poor little Angeline*
But sad to say, on that very same day
He'd been sent to jail and there to stay
For coming in his pants at the local dance
With poor little Angelina
Now the window of his cell, overlooked the dell
IJherein tne squire was giving her hell
As they lay on the grass, he recognised the ass
Of poor little Angeline.
So with a mighty start, and a hearty fart
He blew the prison bars wide apart
And he ran like shit, lest the squire should split
Poor little Angeline.
When he got to the spot, and saw what was what
He tied the villain?s pinis in a knot
As he lay up:>n nis gut*, he got a kick in the guts
From poor little Angeline*


THE RIVER RAN RED                                                         83
(Tune- Titanic)
Number one was having fun, number two got quite a few
Number four got some more as he said
!,0h the river ran red with blood of the dead
As we came around and tried to get some more",
The road was full of ruts, and the ruts were full of guts
Little children sucking tits had them sh6t right from their mits
Oh ths riv#r ran red with blood of the dead
As W§ $3*8$ abound and tried to get some more
Thsrs w&* a vr&mn in the crowd, little children cried aloud
But they ail carried guns for the foe
Th^F3 wwe seme who turned around, when they heard that awful sound
As tf§ &®&e around and tried to get some more.
Oh it ssemod an awful crime, as we shot them in their prime
But they got numb§? three don't you see
Yes they shot him down with flak, and they broke is bloody back
As we came abound and tried to get some more*
Number one was having fun, number two got quite a few
Number four got some more as he said
"Oh the river ran red with blood of the dead
As we came around and tried to get some more*
STRAFERS                                                                 84
When I was a cadet, an innocent lad
The Chaplin told me the good from the bad
And of all his words, these were his last
Never fly high and never fly fast*
So I joined up the strafers with these words in mind
And off to New Guinea did go
But when I got there I was to find
The strafers fly too gosh darn low**..Oh.
We fly o'er the treetopsl with inches to spare
There's smoke in the cockpit and grey in our hair
The tracers look fine as strafing we go
But brother you're flying just too gosh darn low.

Idid, I did, I taw him, As big afe he could be.
I am that great big MIG-15, Ivan is my name
And if I catch that '84, I'll shoot him down in aflame.

ON TOP OF OLD PYONGYANG                                                    87
(Tune- On Top of Old Smokey )
On top of old Pyongyang, all covered with flak
I lost my poor wingman, hefll never come back
For flying is pleasure, and dying is grief
And a quick triggered commie, is worse than a thief
For a thief will just rob you, and take all you save
But the quick triggered commie, will send you to the grave
And the grave will destroy you, and turn you to dust
Not one MIG in a thousand, A Sabre Jet can trust*
Now when the bad weather, keeps the ships down
All day we can hear, this horrible sound
Attention all pilots, now listen to this
There111 be a short meeting, That you dare not miss*
They'll give us some lectures, then give us some more
But we have all heard them, twenty-five times or more
Now listen you trainees, you can't fight the group
Whatever they tell you, is superfluous poop.
ON TOP OF OLD FUJI                                                        88
On top of old Fuji, all covered with show
I lost my jet pilot, from flying too low
He put on an air show, he did it for me
On top of Mt Fuji, he clobbered a tree
With throttle wide open, he made his last pass
At altitude zero, he busted his ass.
RED NOSE MIGS                                                             89

Oh the red nose MIG's are cominf
And they want to fight
Let!s hurry, hurry, hurry home
Oh wonft you hurry, hurry, hurry home
Oh the red nose MIG's are comin1
Not a Sabre in sight.


THE CAMEL                                                        90
The crew they all ride in the dory
The captain he rides in the gig
It don*t go a damn bit faster
But it makes the old bastard feel big
Chorus: Singing toraly toraly toraly a
Toraly toraly A
It don't go a damn bit faster
But it makes the old bastard fell big
The sexual life of a camel
Is greater than anyone thinks
In mcnents of amorous passion
He often makes love to the sphinx.
Now the sphinx's posterier organs
Are blocked by the sands of the nile
Which accounts for the hump on the camel
And the sphinx's inscrutable smile*
Exhaustive experimentation
By Darwin and Huxley and Hall
Has proved that the. ass of a hedgehog
Can hardly be buggered at all.
Oh why don't the boys down at Harvard
Do like the boys down at Yale
They pull all the quills from the hedgehog
So it's easy to grab by the tail.
Here's to the girls of North Adams
And here's to the streets that they roam
And here's to their dirty faced bastards
God bless them they may be our own.
Here's to old Fort Massachusetts
And here's to the old Mohawk trail
And here's to the Indian maidens
They gave us our first piece of tail.
OLD BEER BOTTLES                                                91
It was only an old beer bottle
Floating on the foam
It was only an old beer bottle .
Ten thousand miles from home
Inside was a piece of paper
With these words written on
Whoever finds this bottle
Will find the beer all gone.


CATS ON THE ROOF TOP                                                      92
The hippopotamus so it seams, seldom if ever has wet dreams
But when he does, he comes in streams
As we revel in the joys of copulation.
Chorus: Cats on the roof tops, cats on the tiles
Cats with the syphillis, cats with the piles
Cats with thoir ass holes wreathed in smiles
As we revel in the joys of copulation.
Down in the Pampas, down in the grass, mama armadillo lias an iron bound ass
But papa armadillo has a prick of brass
As we revel in the joys of copulation
Way down south where the alligators roar
There isn*t such a thing as an alligator whore
Cause all the alligators are too sore
As we revel in the joys of copulation*
Oh the elephant is a funny old bloke
JSfcQ JfW &3Ledom gets his poke
S& ^ffi1 &e does he dips it quick

POOR BWT IfiSfJ^r                                                         93
Oh she was poor but she was honest
The victim of a rich mans whim
When she met that southern gentleman Big Jim Folsom
And she had a child by him
Now he sits in the Legistlature
Making laws for all mankind
While she walks the streets of Dotham Alabama
Selling chunks of her behind
Itfs the rich what gets the glory
It's the poor what gets the blame
IV s the same the whole world over - over over
Now ainft that a God Damn shame.

ACE IN THE HOLE                                                          95
Oh the world is full of guys, who think they're mighty wise
Just because they know a thing or two
You can sea them night a day strolling up and down broadway
Telling of the things that they can do
Oh there are wise men and there are boozers
Con men and crap shooters, they all hang around the metropole
Wearing fancy ties and collars, where do they get those dollars
They all have that ace down in the hole.
Soma of them writa to the old folks for coins,
That's their old ace in the hole
Others have girls on the old tender-loin
That1s their old ace in the hole
They'll tell you of places that theyfre going to see
From Frisco to the old north pole
But their name would be mud, like a chump playing stud
If they lost that old ace in the hole.


THE MISSION                                                             96
(Tun©- The Thing)
I looked upon the schedule and was as happy as a king
For once I had a mission when I wasn't flying wing
I went down to the briefing room and my tiger blood went ping
For there sat Major Nichols and they had me on his wing
For there sat Major Nichols and they had me on his wing,
The mission was all briefed to go at quarter after nine
Big Dog had given us all the poop, the weather it was fine
"One word of adviceff he said to us, "Though I hate to spoil your fun
Stay out from in front of the MIG-15, it's got too big a gun
Stay out from in front of the MIG-15, it's got too big a gun.
We were augerin' around away up there as watchful as could be
Reichman said, "Take a look at six and see what you can see,"
I took a look at six o'clock and much to my surprise
I discovered a MIG-15, right before ray eyes
I discovered a MIG-15, right before my eyes,
The cannon balls were flying around as think as they could be
I took one look and said, says I, this ain't the place for me
I rolled it over and sucked it through and took it down below.
Sayin1 get out of here with that BOOM BOOM BOOM and don't pome back no more
Sayin' get out of here with that BOOM BOOM BOOM and don't come ba,ck no more.
I shoved the throttle to the wall a runnin' for my life
Skelton said, "Come back you coward and join into the strife."
"Your ass/1 said I with quaking voice, "This ain't no place for me."
So I racked it up and pulled it around and took it out to sea
So I racked it up and pulled it around and took it out to sea.
I rolled it out of that six G turn out over the briny deep
That MIG could not have followed me cause I sure racked it steep
But when I looked back, Oh there he sat, as fat as he could be t
And he was shooting those cannon balls, and they were coming right at me
And he was shooting those cannon balls, and they were coming right at me.
I took a hit upon the wing, another in the tail
The way that Sabre was lurchin1 around I'd surely have to bail
I braced myself and said a prayer end pulled the handle red
Oh, if I hadn't gotten out of the flaming wreck, I surely wound up dead
Oh, if I hadn't gotten out of the flaming wreck, I surely wound up dead.
The moral of this story is, if you're up in a fight
And you've got a MIG at six o'clock, and he!s all tucked in tight
Don't ever roll out or pull it up, that's my advice to you
Cause you'll never get rid of the Son of a Bitch, no matter what you do
Cause you'll never get rid of1 the Son of a Bitch, no matter what you do.

SPOT PROMOTION                                                         97
(Tuna- Cold Cold Heart )
I've tried, so hard ray friend, to think
That rank was worth a lot
But now you've gone and got yourself
Promoted to a spot
Your job is one that could be done
By any PFC
How can I get your ass shipped out
And get that spot for me.
You'll be a full bird soon, my friend
Of that I have no doubt
The T/0*s being changed right now
They ripped it inside out
Lieutenant General, Wing CO
The staff all gets one star
At least we'll have some rank around
To help us fight the war.
Another week or two in grade
We'll put you in again
You needn't wait to learn your job
That's for enlisted men
The only thing I envj is
The talent that you got
How can I get your b.vb shipped out
And get your open spot*
AIN'T IT A BLOODY SHAME                                                98
(Tune- Poor but Honest)
We were fat back in the Truman1s
Drink beer, and sometimes wine
When they said, "You're going over
To Korea's fighting line/1
We were young and we were ejager
To get one hundred and go home
But they slipped the finger to us
And left us her© - far o'er the foam
Now they sit in FEAF Headquarters
Mking rules so much unking
It's the same the whole world over
Isn't it a bloody," shame
Shed a tear when you think of us
Sitting here on old K-2
While you sleep with all our sweethearts
As we fly the old jfalu*

EAELI ABORT                                                             99
(Tune* MacMamara's Band)
Oh, my name is Colonel _______________, Ifm the leader of the group
Just step into my briefing room, I'll give you all the poop
Ifll tell you where the Commie is, and where the flak is black
I111 be the last one off the deck, I'll be the first one back.
Chorus: Early abort, avoid the ru3h, early abort, avoid the rush
Early abort, avoid the rush
Oh ray name is Colonel__________, I'm the leader of the group,
My name is Major _________________and I lead old liberty
And if I go on rail cuts, my beys will follow me
But if you say Pyong-Yang, 1*11 tell you what I'll do
Get into your plane and go ahead, and I'll wait here for you
Ifm sure you've heard of ndghtmares, and the things they do
But if you'll come down to the line, you111 see they're far from true
The pilots they are ready, but let the skipper shuut
And all those bastards yell at once, "My mags they won't check out!"
And they I'm sure you know of the leaders in the wing
Any night in the 0 Club you can hear how well they sing
With words they fight a hell of a war, they say they wanta go too
But just you give them half a chance, and here's what they will do.
Oh I fly the old Invader, and Douglas says it's great
But when it comes to fighting MIG's, those bastards don't rate
I was born to be a fighter, to grapple in the blue
But when it comes to fighting MIG's, I'll tell you what I'll do
Now we'll all line up and take off, and set our course at ten
And when we reach the no return, we'll all turn back £gain
We'll call the tower and get a steer, we don't know where we've been
Drop your tanks and canopies, peel off and belling in.
Oh we fly those bloody Sabres at a hundred bloody feet
We can fly them in the rain and fog, and in the bloody sleet
We think we're flying bloody south, instead we're bloody north
And we make our bloody landfall at the Firth and bloody Forth.
0 we fly those bloody Sabres at a hundred bloody feet
We can fly them in the rain and fog, and the bloody sleet
And when we're flying bloody high, we're flying bloody low
And we hit the marker beacon such an awful bloody blow.
Now when this war is over and we're back in the U. S. A.
We'll fly the planes in all war games, and do what the Generals say
But if we have another war and they give us the "86
To hell with all the genel staffs, we won't get in that fix.

THE FAIRCHILD ABORTION                                                100
(Time- Strawberry Roan)
Out on the flight line one cold Sunday morn
Sat the Fairchild Abortion all battered and torn
The wings were sagging, the tires were flat
The form one had a red line, I'll bet you on that
We fired up both engines with mixtures full rich
And took to the runway with that son of a bitch
We puehed on the power, she farted and stall fed
And got off the runway, no airspeed at all.
We called to the tower, "Single Engine," we say
"What the hell,ff said the tower, ,!We got them all day"
"GO around,lf said the tower, "We can?t let you land
We got Gookd on the runway dragging off sand,
We milked up the flaps, and rolled in the trim
Over the tree tops that old wreck she did skim
We turned on final and free fell*; the gear
The engineer murmered, "Please have no fear".
The pilot was scared, the Co-pilot too
The engineer had all he could do
The runway was coining and coming up fast
On third of the runway had already passed
We pulled off power and she settled in fast
That one-twenty-three had landed at alst.
BLACKBIRDS                                                            103

Here we stand on the ground
We won't take off till the sun goes down
We fly blackbirds
Go in low and come out fast
Keep those fighters off our ass
We fly Blackbirds,
No one here can ever understand us
You should here the malarky the^r hand us
Mix those drinks and mix em right
Because we're standing down tonight
Blackbirds we fly.

(Tune - Sioux City Sue )                                                       -
I drove a herd of oxen down
Till I reached old Bong Chong Way
And there I met a gook girl
Who said she'd like to play
Her clothes were of a dirty blue
Her hands and feet were too
I asked her what her name was
She said, "Seoul City Sue."
Chorus: Seoul City Sue, Seoul City Sue
Tour hair is black, your eyes are too
Ifd swap my honey cart for you
Seoul City Sue, Seoul City Sue
No one smells of Kimchie
Like my sweet Seoul City Sue
Oh, Korea, I must admit
I owe a lot to you
I came here from America
To find Seoul City Sue
Someday Ifll take her back with me
And by her perfumes too
So people cant't be singing
eHere comes Seoul City Sue."
LOOK AT THE EABS ON HIM                                               iOJT

So I went down, Held up my hand, and this is what they to34
KjToi^H go to Kelly Field and learn to navigate the sky11
When I got there I was SOL for this is how I fly*
Chorus: Look at the ears on him, on him
Oh I How do you get that way?
That was the greeting I received as I marched in todajr
First they put me into the kitchen, KP was my name
I wrote my girl that I was a flier
Gee! but I'm a wonderful liar
Look at the ears on him, on him
Oh! How do you get that way?
That is the only battle cry I hear both night and day
If Ifm to fight in this great war and.end the Kaisers reigtt
They*d better take up me kettles and pans
And give me an aeroplane*
I fve peeled a million spuds since Ifve been in this flying garni
I've swung a pick and shovel, till ny weary back is lame
X*ve navigated lots of ground but not an inch of sky
And when I ask about aeroplanes, I he^r the same old pry,

Oh there are no fighter pilots down in hell
Oh there are no fighter pilots down in hell
Oh the place is full of queers, navigators, bombardiers
But there are no fighter pilots down in hell.
Oh there are no fighter pilots in the states
Oh there are no fighter pilots in the states
They are off on foreign shores, making mothers out of whores
Oh there are no fighter pilots in the states.
Oh there are no fighter pilots in Japan

They are all across the bay, getting shot at every day
Oh there are no fighter pilots in Japan.
Oh there are no bomber pilots in the fray
Oh there are no bomber pilots in the fray
They are all in USD's wearing ribbons, fancy clothes
Oh there are no bomber pilots in the fray.
Oh the bomber pilot's life is just a farce
Oh the bomber pilot's life is just a farce
The automatic pilot's on, reading novels in the John
Oh the bomber pilot's life is just a farce.
Oh the bomber pilot never takes a dare
Oh the bomber pilot never takes a dare
His gyros are uncaged, and his women overaged
Oh the bomber pilot never takes a dare,
Oh there are no fighter pilots up in wing
Oh there are no fighter pilots up in wing
The place is full of brass, sitting round on their fat ass
Oh there are no fighter pilots up in wing.
Oh it's naughty naughty,naughty but it's nice
If you ever do it once you'll do it twice
It'll wreck your reputation, but increase the population
Oh it's naughty naughty naughty but it's nice.
Oh look at the 388th in the club
Oh look at the 388th in the club
They don't party, they don't sing, 386th does everything
Oh look at the 388th in the club.
When a bomber jockey walks into our club
When a bomber jockey wallcs into our club
He don't drink his share!of suds, all he does is flub his dub
OH THERE IS NO FIGHTER PILOTS DOWN IN HELL.

This ole team gonna need revision
This ole team gonna need a crew
This ole team has thrived on gimmicks
Have you seen our pink and blue
This ole team has frosty tailpipes
This ole team has lost its charm
And the captain said the other day
My boys, you've bought the farm,
Ainft gonna need this team no longer
Ain't gonna need this team no more
Ain't got time to learn the diamond
Ain't got time to learn the score
Ain't got nerve to do a bomb burst
Or a plane to do the roll
And were looking for the PIO
Who got us in the hole,
This ole team can't fly in weather
Thia ole team canit fly in rain
This ole team is out of pints of blue
We're called old yellow stain
This ole team is getting lonesome
This ole team has gone astray
And we're just five angel puddy cats
Awaitin' judgement day0
Ainrt gonna need this team no longer
Ain't gonna need this team no more
Ain't got time to be a tiger
Ain't got time to give a roar
Ain't got planes that hold together
Or that G-suit underwear
But we've got our pretty flying suits
So we don't really care*

A BOMBER FLIES 10,000 MILES                                            109
(Tune- Sing us Another One)
Our bomber flies ten thousand miles
Our bomber flies ten thousand miles
But a bomb is like a cherry
Is all it can carry
When our bomber flies ten thousand miles
Chorus: Steady boys, steady boys
Here comes another lie.
Said pilot to bomber, how slick
Finding this target's no trick
But my God how strange
We're fresh out of range
Strap on my parachute quick
The Air Force sure has the life
Wine, women and song is the plan
Therefs medals by baskets
For flying our caskets
In the M-G-M starlet command
F-80's are certainly keen
If to daring your tendencies lean
But we want it said
We'd not be caught dead
In such an infernal machine
With our bombers the world will be shocked
At three hundred miles they've been clocked
But while dreaming up tricks
With the B-36
We've all had our heads up and locked.
The X-l was cruising the blue
The pilot felt something quite new
Christ what a sensation!
Where's public relations
The Legion of Merit will do
Our bomber goes ten thousand miles
We claim it but only with smiles
While crashing the barrier
We pooh, pooh, the carrier
That really goes ten thousand miles.
Oh we know what we're saying its true
We got it directly from Stu
We love the blue yonder
But sometimes we wonder
Just who's doing what and to wjio
So listen young men as we say
Be careful of wings and flight pay
There's no prohibitions
On suicide missions
So come join the Air Force today

ONCE THEY WERE HAPPY                                                  110
(Tone- Man on the Flying Trapeze)
Once they were happy, completely at ease
They flew their F~80?s like a s'tfingin1 trapeze
They looped em, they rolled era, they bounced DC-3fs
But alas bojs, their wings h&ve been clipped*
One day they approached Itazuke
Jet leader called echelon right
Mustangs at nine o3clcek level
Let's see if Sth fighter will fight
The F~80fs broke left and the Mustangs broke right
I think they see us^ says jet four in fright
They're all pullin streamers says jet number three
Let's go home, this is no place for me*
The Jets headed heme at a hundred percent
In fact number four had the throttle stop bent
Back to Misawa, fco Mira^a thsy went
Never to bounce any more*
THE PRETTIEST SHIP                                                   111

The MIG-15f3 leap off the moon
(3)           Then they coma down and pretty soon
A pioeed-cjff tiger lowers the boom
(4)           On all our planes we paint red stars
For MIC-15? 3 that' land* on Mars
(5)           We chase them up to forty-four
That fox eight six ain't got much more
(6)           The throttle's set right ar full bore
We711 never catch that little whore
(7)           Then they start home and Casej calls
Wefer letting down no sweafc at all
(8)           We1 re coming in with thirteen chicks
Twelve ICG's one fox eight six

"Gft SUITS AND PARACHUTES                                               U2
(Tune- Bell Bottom Trousers)
Once there was a barmaid, down in brewery lane
Her master was so kind to her, her mistress was the same
Along came a pilot, handsome as could be
He was the cause of all her misery
Chorus: Singing ,fG?r suits and parachutes
And uniforms of blue
He'll fly a fighter
Like his daddy used to do*
He asked her for a pillow to rest his weary head
She gave it to him willingly and lost her maidenhead
And she like a silly girl, thinking it no harm
Climed in bed beside him just to keep the pilot warm,
Now in the morning before the break of day
A five pound note he handed her, and this to her did say
"Take this my darling, for all the harm I've done
For you may have a daughter, and you may have a son
If you have a daughter, put ribbons in her hair
And if you have a son, get the bastard in the air.,f
Now the moral of moral of nqr story as you can plainly see
Is never trust a pilot an inch above the knee
The barmaid trusted on and he went off to fly
Leaving her a daughter to help the time go by.
Final Chorus: Singing "G" suits and parachutes
And uniforms of blue
She111 never fly a fighter
Like her daddy used to do.
INTO THE AIR                                                              113
Into the air, U.S. Air Force
Into the air, Pilots true
Into the air, U.S. Air Force
Keep your nose up in the blue
And when you hear the engines roaring
And the steel props start to shine
Then you can bet the U.S. Air Force
Is along the fighting line.
Into the air, junior birdmen
Into the air, upside down
Into the air, junior birdmen
Get your nose up off the ground
And when you hear the great commencement
Any you win your wings of tin
You will know the junior birument
Have sent their box tops in.

MI WILD EYED CADET                                                    114
(Tune- My Wile Irish Rose)
My -wild eyed Cadet, ho ain't learned nothing yet
He noses her down, when close to the ground
My wild eyed cadet*
He lips in his banks, if he lives we'll all give thanka
I hear drums beating low, and men marching slow
Behind wild eyed cadets.
EIGHT BOCKS A DAI                                                     115
Open tip the throttle till the needle hist the peg
Eight bucks a day, Eight bucks a day
Dive and roll and loop har till she's wingless as a keg
Eight bucks a day is the pay
Closis the gate, lock the door
Cause we wcn°t come back to L&ngley no more
We'll land at every flying field to San Francisco Bay
Eight bucks a day is tne pay,
I WANT TO GO HOME                                                     116
1 *ant to go home! I want to go home!
The gas bank is leaking, the motor is dead
The pilct is trying to stand on his head
Take me back to the ground, I don't want to fly upside down
Oh, ray I I'm too young to die
I want to go horns o

Here? s a health to the formation leader, a jolly good fellow is he

I'VE GOT SIX-PENCE                                                    119
I've got six-pence, jolly jolly sixpence
Ifve got six-pence, to last me all my life
I've got tuppence to spend, and tuppence to lend
And tuppence to send home to my wife, poor wife,
No cares have I to grieve me
No pretty girls to decieve me

As we go rolling rolling home.
Rolling home, Rolling home
By the light of the silvery moon
Happy is the day, when the Air Force gets its pay
As we go rolling rolling home.
PASDE CALAIS                                                            120
Now you can send me twice a day
To the Pasde Calais
But don't ever send me over the Ruhr
Send me to Paris or a target in France
Any old place that I might have a chance
You can send me twice a day
To the Pasde Calais
But don't send me over the Ruhr
You may think I'm wacky
But I'm only slightly flaky
Don't send me over the Ruhr
Now the alert's on the phone
The target's Cologne
My God, That's on the edge of the Ruhr.
Send me to Bremen or old potsdam town
Any place you can see through the flak to the ground
You can send me twice a day
To the Pasde Calais
But don't send me over the Ruhr
For even when I'm planning on aborting
Don't send me over the Ruhr
ODE TO THE B-29                                                        121
(Tune- Whiffenpoof song )
We are four little fans who have lost our way, GROWR, GROWR, GROWR
We are four little fans who have gone astray, GROWR, GROWR, GRCWR
One third pilot out on the left, one third pilot out on the right
"George" is flying with all of his might, Growr, GROWR, GROWR!!


IF YOU FLY                                                   122
If you fly an 89, you must be dumb, deaf, and blind
For your life ain!t worth a dime, what's your scheduled blow up time
Chorus: Will you go boom today, will you go boom today
Two blew up yesterday, Allison ain't here to stay
If you fly an 86, you must really get your kicks
Bouncing the all weather boys, playing with their radar toys*
If you fly a 949 you will never holier more
For your lot we do not pine, it's better than an 89.
If you fly a thunder-get, you will really have no sweat
For your life you will not pound, the clunker won't get off the groundf
TOO LONG AT ITAZUKE                                           123
Too long at Itasuke
Look just like a little gook
Eyes that slant, nose that's flat
Speak Japanese, "You caught a muskrat11
Mo work in rice-paddy
Go Geisha house and drink gaki
Me jo-jo Number One Japanese boy-san0
SONG OF THE 18TH                                             124
(Tune- Wreck of Old 97)
It's a long, long road from Pusan to Pycng-yang
And the mountains are high and wide
If my engine quit^ you can write off a mustang
Cause I'm fixing to go over the sideD
Colo MsEride led his boys on a mission
And the chinks started throwing up flak
He said, "Run cm up boys^ and we'll clean out our engines
And the drinks are on the last one to get back*
Close support is a d^mn fine sortie
Cause you work so close to the troops
You get hit twelve times by a 20 or a 40
And your engine coughs, sputters, and poops 0
So you hit the silk and you land in a meadow,
And the chinks start biasing away
And a ! copter comes along and picks up your elbow
Registration boys 'will find the rest some day*
Itfs a damn fine war and I love every mission
And I guess I?m here to stay
But I'd rather shag a broad by suggestive coition
Or catch the clap in Sante Fea

FLAK IN THE NIGHT                                                 125
From Kunaan to Anju, from ftrongyang to Tangdok
Wherever the red trucks gcr
I'V* been on some rough routes, and had me some tough bouts
But there is one thing I know
The red balls will get you, they1 re worrisome things
That lead you to sing, the flak in the night ♦
Hear the 8th a-calling, hear the 13th bawling
Dentist, oh dentist, oh bromide, oh bromide
Oh snowflake, oh give me a steer oh |ive me a fix
I'm lost in the night ♦
THE INVADER                                                       124
Oh the invader is a very fine airplane
Constructed of ste^l and tin
It will do over three hundred level
The plane with the tailwind built In
Oh, why did I join the Air Force
Mother, dear Mother knew best
For here I lie in the wreckage
Invader all over my chest ♦
THE FIGHTING 68TH                                                  12f
(Time- MacNamaraa Band)
We'jre here to tell a story of squadron 68
Came over from Ashia to join the fighting eighth
They1 re sitting here before Us, tapping up the brew
They don't belong in a fighter group, but what can Chitty do,
Chorus: La da da da, What can he do
La da da da, What can he do
La da da da, What can he do
Oh they don't1 belong in a fighter group
But what can Chitty do.
They fly their old night fighters, they take off after dark
They don't know where they're going, they're just up for a larlf
They never brief, they always beef, fly strictly on a hunch
Their call should be "J&aana*1 cause they fly in such a bunch.
Tou know we also fly at night, thank God the times are few
We often hear night fighters saying, Moonshine, is that you?
Won't you tell those nasty shooting stars to land they're in our way!


RAIL CUTTERS                                                         128
(Time- Cold Cold Heart)
I tried so hard, Wild Bill, to cut
That streak of railroad track
But I'm afraid that all I did
Was dodge that flying flak
I know that one is all it takes
To blow my ass apart
Why canft I get just one rail cut
And melt our cold cold heart.
MY DARLING 39                                                         129
(Tune- My Darling Clementine)
In the cockpit of the Cobra
Trying hard to reach the line
But alas my engine faltered
Fare thee well my 39
Chorus: Oh my darling, Oh my darling
Oh my darling 39
You are lost and gone forever
Fare thee well my 39
When you're spinning very flatly
And you've got a worried mind
That's all brother, hit the jumpsack
Bid farewell to your 39o
All the brass hats in our congress
They have signed the dotted line
They are lucky they just bought it
They don't fly the 39«
MOVIN ON                                                             130
When you hear the patter of tiny feet, it's the 49th in full retreat
They're movin on, they'll soon be gone
They've pushed around just long enough, thery're movin on
Pear the pitter-patter of the little feet, it's the first marines in full
retreat
They're movin on, They're movin on
They're burning gas they're ^they're hauling ass, they're movin on.
Hey GI you pissed off at me, What's the matter you got no VD
I fm movin on, I'll soon be gone
|Ioney bucket turned over in the middle of the road, I'm movin on.
Jfama-san movin down the track, with a GI baby strapped on her back
She's movin on, She'll soon be gone
%t she catche^ GI papa-san, he'll be movin on*


MOVIN ON (Cont)
Oh here come the Commies runnin down the pass
Playin the burp gun on a gyrene's ass
He's movin on, he's movin on
You've been flying too high for this little ole guy
So I'm movin on.
Thb3&Efr$&vm dog--was feeUmvfit^^tili^r^\aimped in a barrel of turpentine
He's movin on, he's movin on
He crashed the gat like a P-38, but he's movin on*
The old torn cat was feelin mean, till he caught his tail in a sewin machine
He's movin on, he'a movin on
He missed a stitch when he hit the ditch, but he's movin on.
MI GOD HOW THE MONEY ROLLS IN                                          131
My father makes rum in the bathtub
My mother makes two kinds of gin
My sister makes love for a living
My God how the money rolls in.
Chorus: Rolls in, rolls in, my God how the money rolls in, rolls in
Rolls in, rolls in, my God how the money rolls in*
My brother's a poor missionary
He saves little girlies from sin
He'll save you a blonde for five dollars
My God how the meny rolls in.
M5y uncle paints real frenchy postcards
My auntie she poses for him
Her costume cost nary a penny
My God how the money rolls in.
I tried making all kinds of whiskey
I tried making all kinds of gin
I tried making love for a living
My God the condition I'm in.
Chorus: Sin, sin, sin, sin, my God the condition I'm in, I'm in
Sin, sin, sin, sin, My God the money is rolling in.
My father died in the bathtub
My mother she died of her gin
My sister she married my brother
MT GOD WHAT A MESS I AM IN.
I'd an uncle who was a night watchman
Who spent all his nights in the pit,
He used to come home all over in shit.
My Auntie manufactures French letters
My cousin pricks holes with a pin
My uncle performs the abortions
My God how the money rolls in.

RING DANG DOO                                                         132
When I was young and sweet sixteen
I met a girl from New Orleans
Oh she was young and pretty too
She had what you call a ring-dang-doo.
A ring-dang-doo, pray what is that
Itfs round and soft like a puspy cat
It's round and soft and split in two
That's what you call a ring-dang=~doo
She took me down into the cellar
She said I was a very fine feller
She gave me wine and whiskey too
And she let me play with her ring-dangAioo
She took me up into her bed
She placed her tits beneath my head
And tbsn she took my hickey-floo
And placed it in her ring-dang-doo
Now six months later she began to swell
She swelled and swelled till she looked like hell
She told her ma and her father too
That I took a crack at her ring-dang-doo
Her father said you filthy whore
You've gone and lost your maidens lore
Pack up your bag and your nighty too
And make your living ffcora your ring-dang-doo
She wsnt to the city to become a whore
She hung a sign upon her door
Five dollars now nothing else will do
To take a crack at my ring=dang-do.
And the fellers came and the fellers went
And the price went down to fifteen cents
Fifteen cents and nothing else will do
To take a crack at my ring-dang-doo <,
And then one day a son of a bitch
He had the crabs and the jockey itch
He had the syph and diarrhea too
And he took a crack at her ring-dang-doo
They hung her tits in the city hall
They pickled her ass in alcohol
Now all you bums and hobo's too
You've heard my tale of the ring-dang-doo
So they buried her near the city hall
And they engraved upon the wall
She's learned her lesson and you should too
Just stay away from the ring-dang-doo.

OLD GREY BUSTLE                                                        133
(Tune- Old Grey Bonnet)
Put on your old grey bustle and get out and hustle
For tomorrow the rentfs coming due
Put your ass in clover let the boys look it over
If you can't get five take two.
Put on those old pink panties that used to be ypur aunties
And we111 go for a tussel in the hay
Mow ther's no use duckin' cause you're goona get a fuckin'
In the good old fashioned way.
Put on your old grey corset if it won't fit force it
For the fleet is coming in today
As the bees make honey let your ass make money
In the good old fashioned way.
Put on that old blue ointment the crabs dissapointment
And we'll kill those bastards where they lay
Though it scratches and it itches it will kill those sons of bitches
In the good old fashioned way.
MACH RIDERS IN THE SKY                                                134
(Tune- Ghost Riders In The Sky)
An 86 got airborne on a dark and windy day
And as he raised his landing gear, you could hear the pilot pray
Keep all those buckets in the wheel and I'll be safe and sound
Don't let that fire go out, Dear Lord, till I am on the ground.
Chorus: Yippi-i~o, yippi-i~a-a~a
Mach riders in the sky
Those flyin friends are here to stay, it's said they're very mean
And all know we've been famous since 1917
Though we may work on holidays, and weekends just the same
Those pukin' pups make history, Oh bless that famous name.
As our 86's leave the ground, their tails are spouting flame
The pilots they all go through hell, but fly em just the same
The crew chiefs work their asses, off to keep em flyin high
And watch with satisfaction as their plane goes screaming by.
Day and night our pilots fight to live up to their .name
Other pilots coma and go, but ours fly on to fame
They're going to fly forever in that range up there on high
They cuss and cry, ,!Live or die," MACH RIDERS IN THE SKY.


THE THING                                                             135
I've flown around for many a year, from Berlin to Taegu
But never a thing I saw like the thing, cruising along the Yalu
I was tooling up and down one day, with nary a thought on my mind
When suddenly was this ???, right up my behind
When suddenly was this ???, right up my behind.
I dropped my tanks and broke to the" right, called help to my wingman
He took one look at the ???, and he turned around and ran
And then I called on another guy, Known as Maple red
But when he saw the ???, he ducked his nose and fled
But when he saw the ???, he ducked his nose and fled.
And then there was this other bird, who yelled get altitude
There may be more of those ???, and I've lost my fortitude
Then finally came x,his swept-wing thing, on of the famous forth
Ha said 1*11 get that ???, his fifties spattered forth
Ha tsaid I'll get that ?T?, his fifties spattered forth•
And then I looked around again, and much to my surprise
I saw him clobber the ???f right before my eyes
The KEG blew up went down in flames, his comrades followed suit
3acause of the guy in the ???, who knew just vhen to shoot
Because of the guy in the ???, who knew just when to shoot*
Now all you jockeys of eighty-fours, here's my advice to you
Never go cruising up and down, north of Sinanju
Unless you've got the Famous Fourth, hovering over you
Cause they'll take care of the ???, they know just what to do
Cause they111 take care of the ???, they know just what to do,
THOSE WEDDING BELLS ARE BREAKING UP                                    136
Not a soul down on the corner
Itf8 & pretty certain sign
Those wedding bells are breaking up
That old gang of mine.
All the boys are singing love songs
.They've forgot Sweet Adeline
Those wedding bells are breaking up
That old gang of raine0
There goes Jack, there goes Jill
Down through lovers lane
Now and then, wo meet again
But they don't seem the same
Gee I get that lonesome feeling
When I hear those church bells chime
Those wedding bells are breaking up
That old gang of mine*

BALL OF YARN                                                         138
Twas a sunny day in ^June all the flowers were in bloom
The birds were singing gaily on the farm
When I spied a maiden fair and I said unto her there
Let me wind up your little ball of yarn.
She said sir can't you see you're a stranger to me
But follow me out behind the barn
There's a shady little nook beside the babbling brook
Where you can wind up my little ball of yarn*
Now young man take my advice never stay out late at night
And you'll never lose your cherry or your charm
Be like the bluebird and the robin keep your little P from bobbin1
And you'll never wind up that little ball of yarn,


SING US ANOTHER ONE DO                                                139
There was a young man from Boston
Who traded his car for an Austin
There was room fpr his ass and a gallon of gas
But his balls hung our and he lost em.
Chorus: That was a very fine song
Sing ua another one
Just like the other one
Sing us another one, do
There was a young man from Dundee
Who buggered an ape in a tree
The result was most horrid, all ass and no forehead
Three balls and a purple goatee.
There was a young man from Kildair
Who buggered his girl on the stairs
The bannister broke, he doubled his stroke
And finished her off in mid air*
There was a queer from Khartjiom
Who took a young lesbian to his room
They argued all night, as to who had the right
To do what, with which, and to whom.
There was a professor from the Mall
Who possessed a cylindrical bail
The cube root of its weight, plus his penis, plus eight
Was one half of two thirds of fuck all.
There was a young girl from St Paul
Who wore a newspaper dress to a ball
Her dress caught on fire, and burned her entire
Front page, aports section and all.
There was a young lady from Wheeling
Who had a peculiar feeling
She laid on her back, and tickled her crack
And pissed all over the ceiling*
There was a yevng imn from Nantucket

WEST VIRGINIA HILLS                                                    141
In the hills of West Virginia, lives a girl named Nancy Brown
Ain't never seen such a beauty, in city or in town
Now Nancy and the Deacon climbed the mountain come high noon
And when they reached the summit, it was very very soon.
Oh she came rollin down the mountain, rollin down the mountain
Rollin down the mountain by the dam
And in spite of his urgin, she remained the local virgin
And is just as pure as West Virginia ham.
Now along cam a trapper, Henderson by name
He took little Nancy, and the story's just the same,
She came rollin down the mountain, rollin down the mountain
Rollin down the mountain by the shack
And in spite all of his urgin, she remained the local virgin
And is just as pure as Pappyfs applejack.
But along cam a slicker, with his hundred dollar bills
He took our little nancy, a way up in the hills.
And they she stayed up in the mountains, stayed up in the -raofchliains
Stayed up in the mountains all that night
She came home next morning early, more a woman than a girlie
And her pappy kicked the hussy out of sight *
Now she's livin in the city, livin in the city
Oh sheiW livin in the city mighty swell
She's done away with pots and kettles, and she's eat in fancy vittlee
And those West Virginia hills can go to hell.
But along came depression, took slicker by the pants
H had to sell jois Packard, had to give up little Nanc'
So now she's back in West Virginia, Back in West Virginia
Back in West Virginia as qf yor©
And the Deacon and the trapper, get that thing that they were after
And she's known as that West Virginia LADY.
LILLI FROM PICCADILLY                                                 142
Oh, I took a trip to london to look around the town
When I got to Piccadilly, the sun was going down
I've never seen such darkness, the night was black as pitch
When suddenly, in frost of me, I thought I saw a witch.
Chorus: Oh, it was Lilly, from Piccadilly
You know the one I mean, the one I mean
I'll spend each payday, that's my hey hey day
With Lilly, my blackout queen.

LILLI FROM PICCADILLY (Conft)
Oh, I couldn't see her figure, I couldn't see her face
But if I ever meet her, I'll know her anyplace
I couldn't tell if she were blonde or a dark brunette
But gosh oh gee, did she give me, a thrill I won't forget.
She said to me, Oh Yankee boy are you lonesome are you blue
Just step around the corner, I'll show you what I'll do
We went up some dark alley, I said, I love you kid
She said, Okay, but first you pay, so I gave her twenty quid,
She leaned her back against the wall, I took her in my arms
She gave to me her very all, and all her buxum charms
I lost my head, I lost my heart, I ven lost my hat
It was a shame, she should have been, a circus acrobat.
We went to her apartment, and when we were in bed
She was so very pleasant, I said someday we'd wed
She even gave me breakfast, she was so very nice
Why what she did for twenty quid was cheap at half the price.

And she'll say she got that way from drinking beers
They've got an awful lot of falsies in brasseires.
So round----so firm----and so fully packed
You'll find it's really just an act
Give a girl a Bally bra and she will grow—grow—grow.
Now Ifve mad© a careful study with the help of my best buddy
And a hundred thousand women volunteers
They've got an awful lot of falsies in brasseires.
So fellows 'fore you wed her, Please investigate her sweater
Or you'll find your honeymoon will end in tears
They've got an awful lot of falsies in brasseires.
FRIGGING IN THE RIGGING                                                144
Twas on the good ship Venus, niy God you should have seen us
The figure head was a whore in bed, And the mast a rampant penis
Chorus: Frigging in the rigging, Frigging in the rigging
Frigging in the rigging, there's fuck all else to do.
The captain of thirf lugger, he was a dirty bugger
He wasn't fit to shovel shit, from one place to another.

FRIGGING IN THE RIGfelNG (Con't)
The first mate's name -was Morgan, my God was he a gorgon
Ten times a day he used to play, upon his sexual organ.
The second mates name was Andy, he was so young and randy
They boiled his bun in steaming rum, for coming in the brandy,
The Midihipmans name was Nipper, he was a dirty ripper
He filled his ass with broken glass, and circumsized the skipper*
The captains wife was Mable, when ever she was able
She'd fornicate with the second mate, upon the gaily table*
The captain had a daughter, who fell into the water
Delighted squeals revealed the eels, had found her wexual quarter*
The crew they were hard cases, you could see it in their faces
They took to frigging in the rigging, for want of better places*
So drunk with exultation, we reached our China station
And sunk a junk in a sea of spunk, caused by mutual masterbation*
The Quartermaster was Pember
He had a crashing member
On nights of frost, himself he tossed
Before a glowing amber.
The Bosun's name was Walker, he really was a corker,
The filthy sod had been in quod
For dalliance with a porker.
Once in a drunken frolick, the bosun lost a bollock
With foul intent, on Mable bent, he impaled it on a rowlock.
The shipfs dog name was Rover, by gad he was in clover
We gound and ground that faithful hound
From Tenereefe to Dover.
The (cabin boy was pretty, it really is a pity
The things they did to that poor kid
Whould quite upset his ditty.
They sailed to far Algeria, to none were they inferior
The prostitutes along the routes
Grew wearier and wearier.
They made for the Bahamas, The harems and zenanas
They did eschew that poxy crew
And much preferred bananas.
They sailed to Buenos Aires, And laid with all the fairies
They got the Syph at Tenereefe
And clap in the Canaries.

FRIGGING IN THE RIGGING (Conft)
The;a, tired of this pollution, they sought for absolution
They upped the priest, the dirty beast
And broke their resolution♦
At first the priest resisted, but then the crew insisted
And some burned rum, beneath his bum
And soon his bollocks twisted,
Pray benidiction for us, pour absolution O'er us
Tou shaggy shite, you shall recite

And her love for the human race
A wonderful compound, a dollar a bottle
And every label bears her face.
Now Mrs, Mrphy, had husband trouble, she did not like to fiddle-de-dee
But after talcing a bottla of compound, they had to tie her to a fcree,,
Now Mrs, Murphy, had baby touble, she could not have a baby dear
But after taking a bottle of compound, they had to milk her like a cow
Now Mrs. Murphy, had kidney trouble, in the morning, she cculd not pee
But after taking a bottle of compound, they had to |&pe her out to sea,

On the good ship rock and rye
But I floated too far

Out there alone, wishing that I were home
The ship went down with the'captain and crew
It left me only one thing to do
I had a drink that old green river dry
To get back home to you,

And the woodpecker said God bless ray soul
Take a smell, take a smell, take a smell, revolting.

Utterly damage me

And I were a mason I'd lay them in style
Oh, I wich that all girls were like fish in a pool
And I were a chap with a waterprooT tool
If all little girls were like bats in the steeple
And I were a bat, There'd be more bats than people
Oh if all little girls were like diamonds and rubbies
And I were a jewler I'd polish their boobies.

Oh minstrels sing of a mighty king
Who many long years ago
Ruled his land with an iron hand
But his mind was weak and low.
His only under clothing was
A filthing undershirt
It was long enough to hide his hide
But never to hide the dirt.
He loved to hunt the royal stag
Within the royal wood
Bttt^ the sprot he loved the best of all
W^'^ullin his royal pud.

THE BASTARD KING OF ENGLAND (Conft)
Wild and wooly and full of fleas
His terrible tool hung down to his knees
God save the bastard king of England.
Now the queen of Spain was a sprightly dame
And an amorous dame was she
And she loved to fool with the royal tool
From far across the jea
So she sent a special message
By a special messenger
And asked tne royal ba^ardship
To spend the night £vdth here
When Phillip of France heard this
He summoned his royal court
Said she prefers my rival
Just because my tool is short
So he scant the Duke of Slip and Slap
to giva i;he queen a &o%® of clap
And thus avenged the bastard king of England
When news of this foul deed
Did reach fair England's halls
The king he swore by the shirt he wore
He's have old Phillip?s balls
So he offered a night with the seet Hortense
To the man who*d nut the king of France
And thus avenge the bastard king of England.
Up spoke the duke of Suffolk
He took himself to France
Declared himself a flutter
The king took down his panta♦
He dropped a thong around his dong
Jumped on his horse and galloped along
And thus avenged the bastard king of England
Now Phillip assumed a royal stance
And groveled on the floor
For during the ride his royal pride
Had stretched a yard or more0
And all the girls in England
Came down to Londcn town
And shouted around the castle
The hell with England^ ero^m*
So Phillip assumed the throne
His seeptes was the royal bone
With which he downed the bastard king of England.

On Tuesday night, she takes in all the slack
On Wednesday night, she has a spell
On Thursday night, she fucks like hell
On Friday night, she takes it up her nose
In between her fingers and down between her toes
On Saturday night, she dishes out gams
And she goes to church on Stinday
She just wants me for a sunbeam
And a fucking fine sunbeam I'll be,

And I'll tell you a story, that '11 make you turn cold
A story of tankers, and a flight out to sea
And I hate to tell you what they did to me*
86


IN JXIGHT REFUELING (fion't)
Oh we took off from George, oh so early one morn
The weather was balmy, but not really warm
We soon left the coast line, and headed to sea
And fon the last time land I did see.
Oh we flew on for hours, it seemed like more
We flew and we flew, till my butt it got sore
And we finally got to that point far from land
Where there were supposed to be tankers at hand
But yes, you have gussed it, no '-feN^te&s there
Nothing around, but ocean and air
We called and we called, but it :waaiin vain
There was nobody out there to r$ft»i my plane
Oh we circled and circled, and ErtRJS&rted for gas
The pain was begining, to lea^e my ass
fTwas begining to pucker, and turn a dull hue
When finally a tanker came into veiw*
Well bygones were bygones, and w^ didn't bitch
We just latched onto, that son of k bitch
What ho, called the scanner, "It's uner your wing
If you don't hook up, you likely,%dpl! ding!"
Well I stabbed and I stabbed and I stabbed some more
But I couldn't hit, that dirty o34 y^ore
I looked at my ga3 gauge, and it wap down low
I backed aff again, and tried it real slow,
So: I tried it real slow boys, but that -didn't work
So I tried it fast again, what a hell of a jerk
The funnel it hit me, one hell of & blow
As I looked at the cold water down*%nere below*
I looked at the water, so cold and so chilled
And I thought to n^rsclf, 1*11 soom be killed
So Pd better hook up, and take on some fuel
Cause that water below looks uncomfortably cool
So I finally did it, I hit that damn hose
I hit that old funnel, right square on the nose
The engineer said, "Sir you're taking on fuel!"
But the bastard was lying, the dirty old fobl.
I called that damn scanner, said, "Turn on the gas
I can't wait much longer, or I'll bust my ass,"
He looked up from his paper, and said with a grin
"You tcnow there are days sir, when you just can't win*
That's the end of my story, I'm sorry to say
That old F-100, lies out in the bay
But I'll have my vengince, you can bet your life
Cause ther's one tanker pilot, that I'm going to knife*

I LOVE OLD WING OPS AND FLYING SAFETY                              • 167
(Tune- Dear Hearts and Gentle People)
I love old Wing Ops, and Flying Safety
They!r% nothing but hot air
But if you bust one, and hit the barrier
You know damn well that they'll be there
I read ray dash one, from dawn till sunset
But it donft go so well
For when the board meets, and I go up there
I know ther're going to give me hell.
I feel so helpless, each time I try to fly
For I know they 111 watch each move I make
And so it's Wing Ops and Flying Safety
Watching every rule I break.
SHO ME THE WAY TO GO HOME                                            168
Show me the way to go home
I'm tired and I want to go to bed
I had a little drink about an hour ago
And it went right to my head
Wherever I may roam
On land or sea or foam
You will always here me singing this song
Show me the way to go home.
Indicate the way to ray abode
Ifa fatigued and I want to retire
I had a spot of beverage sixty minutes ago
And it went right to my cerebellum
Wherever I may perambulate'
On land or sea or atmospheric vapor
jXou can always hear me crooning this melody
Indicate the way to my abode.
BUDDY                                                               169

Oh morphine Bill and Cocaine Sue
Truckin' down the avenue
Chorue: Oh honey have a sniff, have a sniff on me
Oh honey have a sniff on me*
Now right on Broadway, left on main
To get a shot at olc cocaine
Now in that drugstore hung a sign
We airn't got no more morphing
In a graveyard on a hill
Lies the regains of Morphine Bill*
And in that graveyard by his side
lie the remains of his cocaine bride
Now the moral of this story just gee's to show
There ain't no fun in sniffin1 snow*
LEES HOOCHIE                                                         172
(Tune- On Top of Old Smokey)
I went to Seoul City, and met a Miss lee
She said for a short time, oh come sleep with me
We went to Lee's hoochie, a room with hot floors
I left my shoes outside, and slid shut the door.
She took off her Ipng Johns, and rolled out the pad
I gave her ten thousand, 'twas all that I had
Her breath smelies of kimchie, her bosoms were flat
No hair on her pussy, now what about that*
I asked to go benjo, she led me outside
I reached for old smokey, he crawled back inside
I ru®hed to the medics, cried, ,fWhat shall I do I"
The doc was dumbounded, old smokey was blue*
Now when you're in Seoul City, on your next three day pass
Don't go to Lee's Hoochie, sit flat on your ass
Now your ass my get blistered, and< Lee may tempt you
But better the red ass, than old smokey blue.
THE COED AND THE CADET                                               173

Oh the Coed she was bashful and the Cadet he was shy
He asked her if he could and this was her reply
89


THE COED AND THE CADET (Conft)
You can do it if you wanna
But you'd better do it right
You'd better not do it
Like you did the other night
Cause if you do, I'm telling you
I'll never let you do it again
I rally mean it
I'll never let you do it again.

 

A MAN WITHOUT A WOMAN                                               174

A man without a woman
Is like a ship without a sail
Is like a boat without a rudder
Like a kite without a tail.
A man without a woman
Is like a shipwreck on the sand
But if there's one thing worse in the universe
It's a woman, I said a woman
I mean a woman without a man.
For you can roll a silver dollar
Cross the bar room floor
And it will roll, because it is round
And a woman never knows what a good man she's got
Until she turns him down.
So honey listen, now honey listen to me
I want you to understand
That a silver dollar goes from hand to hand
While a woman goes from man to man,

 

RED SCARFS                                                         175
(Tune- Strawberry Blonde)

Now the 12th fighter squadron they don't show me much
While the Red Scarfs fly
Their technique is bad and their bombing is sad
While the Red Scarfs fly.
Their guns are corroded, their pilots are loaded
Their cockpits are covered with dust
They fly for awhile, but they ain't got no style
While the Red Scarfs fly.

Do you ken my sister Tilly

And my mother is the same upon the strand
And my father sells his ass hole
At the Elephant and Castle
We're the finest whoring family in the land.

With your hands upon your knees
And the shadow of your penis on the wall
And the hair a-growing thick
Between your ass hole and your prick
And the rats are playing snooker with your balls.

For the foxes are too few
Oh itfs easy to see, who else could it be
But the Cheetas, every time,

All the nice girls love a candle
Cause a candle has a wick

Nice and greasy, slips in easy
It's the maidens pride and joy
You can hear them sing and hout
As they pop it in and out
Ship Ahoy! Ship Ahoy!
ARIGATO FOR THE MEMORIES                                           180

Arigato for the memories
Of train wrecks on the line
Of Ginza marts and honey carts
Arigato, so much*


ARIGATO FOR THE MEMORIES (Con't)

Arigato for the memories
of steaks we couldn't eat
Old left over meat
Of powdered milk and girls in silk
Kimonas on the street
Arigato, so much.
Few are the times we've feasted
And many's the time wefve fasted
R and R*s were swell while they lasted
We did have fun, and no harm done.
So Arigato for the memories
Of special allied cars
All the different bars
Of whiskey cokes and dirty jokes
Arigato, so much.
Arigato for the memories
Of dead fish on the shore
Rats behind the dooor
The Kamakura Buha and brocades that we all wore
Arigato so much.
Arigato for the memories
Of snacks at the PX
All those talks on sex
The broken bones we suffered, in Takusan jeepo wrecks
Arigato so much.
We say hello with martini's
We'll say sayonara with saki
The Japs won't forget all that khaki
Honshu's not the same, but we're glad we came
Arigato so much,
Arigato for the memories
Of lanterns after dark
Rickshaws in the park
The funny names, the baseball games
So Arigato, so much.

As the blackbirds in the spring
Neath the willow tree
Sat and piped the song they sAng
Singing Auralee
Auralee—Auralee—Maid with the golden hair
Sunshine came along with thee
And shadows in your hair


TELL ME WHY

Tell me why, the ivy twines
Tell me why, the stars do shine
Tell me why, the ocean's blue
I'll tell you why, it's because I love you.
Because  God made, the ivy twine
Because  God made, the stars to shine
Because  God made, the oceans blue
Because  God made you, is why I love you.

IN THE TALL GRASS                                                  185

In the tall tall grass
Young Mary lay a-sleeping
When out of the tall grass
A pilot came a-creeping
With his long dingle dangle dingling
Right down to his knee.
Three months have gone by
Young Mary she grew bolder
She wished that the pilot
Would come and do it over
With his long dangle dingle dangling
Six months have gone by
And Mary she grew fatter
The neighbors did wonder
Just who had been at her
With his long dingle dangle dingling
Right down to his knee,
Nine months have gone by
And Mary burst asunder
And out jumped a pilot
With his 67th number
With his skoshe dangle dingle dangling
Right down to his knee,

She pisses like a little fountain
Cause the hairs on her dickie-di-doo
Hang down to her knees
One black one, one white one
And one with a little shite on
Cause the hairs on her dickie-di-doo
Hang down to her knees
There's a red one, there's a cherry one
There's one with a dingle-berry on
Cause the hairs on her dickie-di-doo
Hang down to her knees♦


THE MAID OF THE MOUNTAIN (Con't)
Ifve been there, I've seen it
I've been right between it
Cause the hairs on her dickie-di-doo

And it feels just like velvet
Cause the hairs on her dickie-di-doo
Hang down to her knees.
I've tangled, I've dangled
I've fucking near got strangled
Cause the hairs on her dickie-di-doo
Hang down to her knees.

(Tune- Bye Bye Blackbird)

There was a man, he was no good
He took a girlie in the wood
He flies mustangs
Then he took off all her clothes
And her shoes, and her hose

He took her whore nobody else could find her
Took a string and tied her hands behind her
Walked away and began to sing
Bogan to sing, ting-a=ling
Mustangs, I fly.

TWO LADIES WERE CONFIDING                                            190
(Tune- River Shannon Flows)

Two ladies were confiding
On a streetcar where they were riding
Oh they must have been school teachers
Their conversation ran that way
On said, "How many children do you have"
She replied, "I've thirty thank you11
And when the same was asked the other
She said "I've got thirty twon
An old, Irish Lady, seated across the aisle
Said I heard your conversation
And I greet you with a smile
You must have been grand ladies
To have had so many babies
But your husbands must have come from
Where our River Shannon flows.

MINNIE THE MERMAID                                                  191

Manyfs the night I spent with Minnie the Mermaid
Down at the bottom of the sea
Minnie lost her morals, down there among the corals
Gee, but she was mighty nice to me
Now many's the night with the pale moon shining
Down on her seaweed bungalow
Ashes to ashes, dustfto dust
Two twin beds and only on of them mussed*
Now you can easily see, she's not my mother
Because my mother's forty nine
And you can easily see, she's not my sister
Because I wouldn't show ray sister
Such a hell-uv-a good time
And you can easily see, she's not ray sweetheart
Because my sweetheart's too refined
She's just a peach of a kid
She never knew what she did
She's just a personal friend of mine.

KEIHOLE IN THE DOOR                                                 195
I left the canteen early, it was shortly after nine
And by a stroke of fortune, her room was next to mine-
Like any brave nColumbon with regions to explore
I took up my position by the keyhole in the door.
Chorus: Oh, the keyhole in ;the door, oh, the keyhole in the door
I took up my position by the keyhole in the door.
She crossed over to the fireplace her lovely figure to warm
With only a silken nighty to hide her gorgeous from
I prayed that she would take it off, just that and nothing more
By, God, I saw her do it through the keyhole in the door.


KEYHOLE IN THE DOOR (Conft)
Now after many a pounding "upon that paneled door
And after many a pleading, I crossed that threshold floor
So no one would over see what I had seen before
I hung her silken night o'er the keyhole in the door.
That night I slept in clover and other things besides
And on that snow-white bosom I had a wonderful time
I awoke next morning early, my back it was sore
You!d think I?d been crawling through the keyhole in the door.
Now listen all you astronomers who think you are so wise
Who gaze into your telescopes into the starry skies
One thing I have to tell you, one thing and nothing more
Your telescopes are nbug~aroo~edn to the keyhole in the door,

WHIFFENPOOF SONG                                                     196
To the tables down at Maury's,
To the place where Louie dwells,
To the dear old Temple Bar we loved so well
Sit the Whiffenpeefs assembled
With their glasses raised on high,
And the magic of their singing casts a spell,
Yes, the magic of their singing
Of the songs we love so well,.
''Shall I wasting" and Kavournee11 and the rest.
We are poor little lambs who have lost our way,
Baa, baa, baa
We are poor little black sheep who have gone astray
Baa, baa, baa.
Gentlemen songsters off on a spree,
Damned from here to eternity.
God have mercy on such as we,
Baa, baa, baa.
LAST NIGHT                                                         197
(Tune- Finicule-Finecula)
Last night I stayed up late to masturbate.
It felt so good—I knew It would
Last night I stayed up late to beat my meat.
It felt so nice—I did it twice.
You shnuld really see me on the short strokes;
It feels so grand, I use my hand,
You must really catch me on the long strokes;
It feels so neat, I use my feet.
Shake it, break it, beat it on the floor;
Smash it, bash it, thrust it through the door;
Some people seem to think that fucking!s grand,
But for all around enjoyment I prefer to use my hand.


SIXTEEN TIMES                                                       198
(Tune - Sixteen tons)
Some people say a man is made out of fear,
But a fighter pilot 's made out of whiskey and beer—
Whiskey and beer, rum and rye,
If you fly the dot your sure to spin in.
Chorus: You fly sixteen times, what d' you get
Another day alder and your weapon is bent.
Col Donalson don't you call me, I'm weak and lame
I lost my ass in a poker game.
I awoke one morning when the sun didn't shine
Got my 'chute and went down to the line
Down to the line to fly the ,TD"
But it was raining so hard I couldn't see.
I scrabled one morning with blood in my eye,
I'd had my fill of overholt rye—
Shot sixteen holes in a T~33
They1 re going to hand my ass from a coconut tree.
When you see me comin' better break to the right
"Cause the 26th Fighter had a party last night—
My eyeballs are red an1 ITm mean as a bear,
Believe me SAMAP better clear the air.

Felt she said, and felt her I did

IT'S TRAGIC                                                          200
You smile your teeth fall out, your hair smells like sauerkraut
It's Tragic
The bugs desert the air, and rush to nestle in your hair
It's tragic
It takes one look to know you ha^e no charms
You're just a bag of bones with long surrounding arms
Your eyes are big and round
There's one that's blue and one that's brown
It's Tragic
You part your hair in place
And it keeps sliding down your face
It's Tragic
And as I tell myself, These things that happen are not really true
Yet in my heart I know the tragedy is really you.

And when you see those, 1TGolf-balls" flying,
And the flak begins to blast.
You can bet the 69ers
Will bite fem in the ass.

Ha ha ha, ho ho ho, horse shit.

And-then-he thought he'd have another round
Thought hefd have another round,
Ha ha ha ha, ho ho ho--------HORSE SHIT, HORS$ SHIT.
FOGGY, FOGGT DEW                                                   903
Oh, I am a bachelor, I live all alone.
I work at the weaver's trade
Ahd the only, only thing that I ever did wrong,
Was to woo affair young maid
I wooed her in the summer time
Part of the winter too.
And the only, only thing that I ever did wrong
Was to sheild her from the Foggy, Foggy Dew.
One night she came to my fcedside
As I lay fast asleep
This pretty, pretty maid
Knelt by my bedside
And there she began to weep.
She* — wept, she cried
She damn near died
Alas, what could I do.
So I took her into bed
And covered her head
Just to shield her from the Foggy, Foggy Dew.
Now a year has gone by
Still a bachelor am I.
And I work at the weaver's trade
Comes a—Knocking at my door
It's a voice I've heard before.
fTis the voice of the fair young maid
ghe handed me a little one
He siad, what can I do." So I took him into bed just to cover tip hi* h**d-
#u*t to. shield him from the Foggy* Foggy Dew*.


LITTLE RED LIGHT                                                   204
(Tune- fflfy blue Heaven")
A turn to the right, a little red light, will lead you to ny red ha*en.
You* 11 see a smiling face on a pillowcase, a form devine.
Just a little old whore who's been screwed before,
A thousand times*
Just Molly and me, therTll never be three,
We're careful in our red haven.
DO TOUR BALLS HANG LOW                                             20$
(Tune- March of the Toy Soldiers)
Do your balls hang low, do they swing to and fro
Can you tie them in a know can you tie f em in a bow
Can you throw them ofer your shoulder like a European Soldier
Do you balls hang low.
In days of old when knights were bold,
They shit right in their britches,
The wiped their ass with broken glass
Those thought old sons of bitches.
IN days of old when knights were bold,
And woman wore mere trifles
They hung their balls upon the walls,
And shot them down with rifles.
In days of old when knights were^m£jr
And women weren't particular.^
They binded them up against f$M? l^SOt,
And fucked them perpendiotflij^^
In days of old when Mights were bold,
They wore all leatrlfer britches,
The beat their j#icks with hickory sticks
And yell'd like sons of bitches.
7IRGIN STURGEON                                                     206
(Tune- Ruben, Reben, Ifve been.Thinking)
Caviar comes from a virgin sturgeon
Virgin Sturgeon is a very fine fish
Virgin Sturgeon needs no urgin1
That's why caviar is my dish.
Shad Roe comes from a scarlet shad fish
Shad fish have a very sad fate
Pregant shad fish is a sad fish
Got that way without a mate.
Osyters they are fishy bivalves
They ave youngsters in their shell
How they diddle is a riddle
But they do so what the hell.


VIRGIN STURGEON (Con't)
The green sea turtle13 mate is happy
With her lovers winning way
First he grips her with his flipper
The he flips the grips for days
Mrs clam is optimistic
Shoots her eggs out in the sea
Hopes her suitor is a shooter
Hits the selfsame spon as she.
Give a thought to the happy codfish
Always there when duty cadis
Female cod fish is an odd fish
From her come your cod fish balls.
The trout is just a little salmon
Just half grown and minus scales
But the trout, just like the salmon
Canft get on without his tail.
Luckiest fish are the comman starfish
When for offspring they essay
Yes my hearties they have parties
In the good old fashoined way.
I fed caviar to my girl frien
She was a virgin tried and true
Now that virgin needs no urgin
There ain't nothin1 she won't do#
I fed caviar to my grandpa
He was a man of ninety three
Screams and shrieks were heard from grandma
He had chased her up a tree.
I fed caviar to xsxy grandma
She came sown out of that tree
Now my gradma and my -grandpa
Start to raise a family.
I fed some caviar to my rooster
I fed some caviar to my cow
Now the barnyard sure looks funny
All the cows have feathers now.
JOIN THE AIR FORCE                                                 207
Chorus s Oh, why did I join the air Force
Mother dear, Dear mother knpw best
Here I lie beneath a wreckage
A sabre jet over my chest.
Now when you are out on a mission
A MIG 15 makes a fine pass
Reach over squeeze both of those handles
The hell with the ship save your ass.


PILOT'S HEAVEN                                                       208
(Tune- Ghost Riders in the Sky)
As we were flying through the sky
One bright and sunny day,
We spied a big black thunderstorm
Alying in our way—
Fly right on through, the colonel said,
We do most anything,
And now we're up in heaven
And hear the angels sing.
Oh it's so very nice up here
Away up in the sky,
There no one here with hen-house ways
There is no TDY
The food is good, the CO'S swell
We have no need to fear,
There's no such thing as OCS—
We all wear wings up here.
As we looked down on earth one day
We saw a (gruesome sight,
It made our blood run very cold
It turned our livers white,
The whole command from Ctaaha
Was headed up this way.
We called our lord before us
And all knelt down to pray.
The General told our boss, the Lorc^,
Now this is not a prank,
He shouted in a might voice
Just what's your date of rank!
The lord sat there—h&s head was bowed,
The General shouted plear
There' s just not TmsL in heaven
For two CO's up here!
The lord he calledus 'fore the throne
And these last words he said,
Tour tour up here is done, my boys
Tour might as well be dead,
We'll send you out on PCS
But names we cannot tell,
One half to go three nine o six,
The other half to H-U-L-L.
BANG IT INTO LULU                                                     209
Some girls work in factories
Some girls work in stores
My girl works in a knockin' shop
With forty other whorese


BANG IT INTO LULU (Con't)
Chorus: Bang it into Lulu
Bang it good and strong
What111 we do for banging
When Lulu's dead and gone,
Wish I was a pisspot
Under Lulufs bed
Every time she stooped to pee
I'd see her maidenhead.
Whish I was a finger
On Lulu's little hand
Every time she wiped her ass
Ifd see the promised land.
Lulu had a baby
She had it on a rock
She couldn't call it Lulu
'Cause the bastard had a cock.
Lulu had a baby
She named it Sonny Jim
She threw it in the pisspot
To teach it how to swim
Last time I saw Lulu
I haven't seen her since
She was suckin' off a tiger
Through a barbed wire fence.
IN THE SPRINGTIME                                                     210
In the springtime, in the springtime
In the springtime of yore
I met a young lady who looked like a---
Darling young maiden, as she lay in the grass
And gently rolled over to show me her—
Diamons and Bracelets and lettle pet duck
And told be she'd teach me a new way to —
Bring up my children and teach them to knit
While farmers in barnyards were shoveling out ---
Feed for their horses,and cattle and sheep
In the springtime, in the springtime
In the springtime so sweet.
THE COMMIES LAMENT                                                         211
(Tune- Clementine)
Onee a flier, do or dier, in his faithful* Sabre true
After bitchin, flew a mission, to the town of Sinianju
Still in flight he, saw some mighty Russian MIG's upon his tail
With a quiver, and a shiver, he let out an awful wail.


THE COMMIES LAMENT (Con't)
Chorus: Sayonara, Sayonara, Sayonara, Ah So Des
If you find me, never mind me,
I will be an awful mess.
Then a Mustang, went in busting, Just to see what he could do
But alas, he made a pass and that was all, they got him too
Thought an 80 I'm so great he'll never get a shot at me
Wasn't gone long when his Bwan song
Sounded just like this to me,
Then a Thunder Jet who hadn't blundered yet
Thought he'd try it all alone
Like a blotter hit the water, shook the hand of Davey Jones
So the tally in MIG alley isn't quite like all the claims
But as a fair course to the Air Force
We won't mention any names.
OLD NUMBER NINE                                                            212
Twas a dark and stormy night, not a star was in sight
All the Mustangs were tied down to the line
When \in rain up to his ears, stood a lonely volunteer
With his orders to fly old number nine.
Hisiass was racked with pain as he Climbed into his plane
And his bung hole was puckered fit to tie
And he whispered a prayer as he cliiaed into the air
For he knew that this was his night to die.
As he flew o'er Haga-ru he could see a school or two
And the women and children very well
But how was he to know that he'd fly so Goddamned low
That his bomb blast would blow his ass to hell.
In the wreck he was fouxid thinly spread out on the ground
And the crunchies they raised his weary head
With his life almost spent here's the messsage that he sent
To his buddies who'd be sad to see him dead.
I used an 8 to 10 delay but it didn't work out that way
Without a tail an F4U won't fly
Tell the Skipper for me, that he now has twenty three
He can roll up the ladder---Semper Fi.
COOL                                                                     213
I'm as co^l as the tip of an eskibno's toil
I'm as co&l as a fish in a frozen pool
Cool as a pane of frosty glass
Cool as the fringe around a polar bear's ass
Cool


SAM HOUSTON                                                             214

I AIN'T GOT NO USE FOR THE WOMEN                                       215
I ain't got no use for the women;
A true one can never be found
They'll use a man for his money
When it's gone, they'll turn him down
They're all alike at the bottom
Selfish, and grasping for all
They'll stick by a man when he's winning
And laugh in his face at his fall.


I AIN'T GOT NO USE FOR THE WOMEN (Conft)
I once knew a young cow puncher
Honest and upright and square
But he turned to a hard shootin gunman
And a woman put him there
He fellin with evil companions
The kind that are better off dead
When a gambler insulted her picture
He filled him full of lead.
All thru that long night they chased him
Thru mesquite and tall chaparral
And I couldn't help think of her picture
When I saw him pitch and fall
If she'd been the pal she should have
He might have been raising a son
Instead of out on the prairie
To die by a rangers gun.
Death's sharp sting did not trouble
His chances for life were to slim
But where they were putting his body
Was1 all that worried him
He lifted his head on his elbow
The blood from his wound ran red
He looked at his pals grouped around him
And this is what he said*
"Bury me out on the prairie
Where the coyotes howl over my grave
Bury me out on the prairie
But from them my bones please save
Wrap me up in my blanket
And bury me deep in the ground
Cover me over with boulders of granite, huge and round^U
So we buried him out on the prairie
Where the coyotes they howl o'er his grave
And his soul is now a resting from the unkind cut she gave
And many another young puncher,
As he rides past that pile of stones
Recalls, of similar woman
And thinks of his moulderin bones*
HINKI DI                                                            216
Up in Korea midst high rocks and snow
The poor Chinese Commie is feeling quite low
For as the Corsairs roar by overhead
He knows that his buddies all soon will be dead*
Chorus: Hinky di Dinky Dinky di
Hinky di Dinky Dinky di.


HINKY DI (Con't)
Lin Pao went way up to cold Kato Ri
His prize Chinese array in action to see
He got there a holf hour after the U!s
And all that he found was their hats and their shoes.
Run little chink men save your ass run
For 323 is out looking for fun
As the big white nosed Corsairs came down in their dives
You'll know the deathrattlers are after you lives.
Uncle Joe Stalin your stooges have found
It just doesn't pay to invade foreign ground
For when they disturb the severe morning calm
They brought on the rocket s, bombs and napalm.
Here's to the 2~C, the vought people too
And their well known product the blue F4U
To all gyrene pilots and carriers at sea
And to the deathrattlers squadron olf $23 •
We fought at Pyong Yang and at Hagaru
At Kumbawa and Kaesang and Oyangbu
So here's to our pilots and here's to our crew
The target, the snake, and the blue F4U.
TEN THOUSAND DOLLARS                                                217
(Tune- Old 97)
He was comin' on the downwind doin1 one ninqty per
When his Hundred went into a spin
He was found in the wreck with his hand on the throttle
And his body all covered with gin.
Now the Pratt man said, "It can't be the engine
'Cause that engine never chugs."
So upon examination, pulling blades in every station
They found it was the jet mix sludge.
Chorus: (Low and Soft) (Tune- Funeral March)
Ten thousand dollars going home to the folks
Ten thousand dollars going home to the folks
Oh won't they be excited, Oh won't they be delighted
Just think of what they can buy
Ten thousand dollars going home to the folks.
I SAW HER SNATCH                                                   218
I saw her "snatch" her satchel from the window
I held her for a moment in the rain
I kissed her "as" she hurried to the station
To see her brother "Jack off" the train.


TIE MY ROOT AROUND A TREE                                           219
(Tune- Chisolm Trail)
Reached in my pocket, pulled out a penny-
She said boy you can't have any.
Chorus: Come and tie my root around a tree, round a tree
Come and tie my root around a tree.
Reached in my pocket, pulled out a nickel
She said for that you don't even get a tickle*
Reached in my pocket, pullled out a dime
She said young man you're wasting your time.
Reached in my pocket, pulled out a quarter
She said young man I'm a preachers daughter
Reached in ray pocket, pulled out.a half
She said young man you make me laugh.
Reached in my pocket, pulled out sijc bits
All she did was wiggle her tits,
Reached in my pocket, pulled out a buck
She said young man you've bought a fuck,
Took her to the kitchen, laid her on the sink
Oh my God how her pussy did stink.
Fucked her sittin1, fucked her ly£n!-
If I'd had wings I'd a fucked her flyin'.
I awoke in the morning, and guess what I saw
Fifteen chancers and a big blue ball.
I went to the doctor, cause my pecker was sore
My God said the doctor you've been taken by a whore.
And now you can see, I'm a perckerless man
I fuck em with my finger and fool em when I can.
Now the last time I saw her, and I haven't seen her since
She was Jacking off a doggie through a barbed wire fence.
CREEPING AND CRAWLING                                               220
One night as I was crawling and creeping, creeping, creeping
I spied a young maiden so peacefully sleeping
So roll you leg over, so roll your leg over, over more
I said to her can I come to bed with you
And then she replied you're not handcuffed or tied
So roll you leg over, so roll your leg over, over more.


CREEPING AND CRAWLING (Con't)
Her drawers were tight and I could not get in them
And then she replied there's a knife on the table
The knife was sharp and her drawers split asunder
And then we were banging like lightening and thunder
So roll your leg over, so: roll your leg over, over more.
In about nine months lay the poor maid asunder
And then she remembered the lightning and thunder
So roll your leg over, so roll your leg over, over more.
HUMORESQUE                                                         221
Passengers will please refrain
From flushing the toilets while the train
Is standing in the station, I love you
As we go strolling through the park
And goosing shadows in the dark
If Shermans horse can take it, why ca$'t you*
You're the guy that did the pushing
Put the wet spots on the cushion
Foot prints on the dash board upside down
Ever since you met my daughter
She's had trouble passing water
Wish that you had never come to town.
I'm the- guy that did the pushing
Put the wet spots on the cushion
Foot prints on the dash board upside down
Since I met your daughter Venus
I've had trouble with my penis
Wish I'd never seen this God damn town.
I LOVE A BILLBOARD                                                 222

A sexy billboard gave me, my first thrill
When I was only a little child
A sexy billboard drove me wild.
HERE' TO _____                                                     223
Here's to ______, he's true blue
He's a drunkard through and through
He's a drunkard so they say
Oh he tried to go to Heaven
But he went the other way
So drink chug-a-lug, chug-a-lug, chug-a-lug
So drink chug-a-lug, chug-a-lug, chug-a-lug.


PADDY MURPHY                                                        224
Have yon ever been in an Irishmans shanty
Where shiskey is plent and the money is scanty
A bed on the floor, a roof of thatch
And a string on the door instead of a latch
Now there were icepicks and toothpicks
And all kinds of lunatics, ice cream and cold cream
The girls were drinking kerosene,
Now the night that Paddy Murphy died is one IfU not forget
The boys they started drinking and some ainft sober yet
Now the night that Paddy Murphy died
They came from far and near
They took the ice right off the corpse, and but it in the beer,
And thatf s how we showed our respedt for Paddy Murphy
Thatf s how we showed our honor and our pride
Thatf s how we showed our respect for Paddy Murphy
On the night that Paddy died.
THE HAIRY CHESTED EIGHT SIX                                          225
We're from the Eight Six
The hairy chested Eight Six
Whenever we go out and have a ball
We take delight in stirring up a fight
And knocking hawks and tigers in the head
Till they1re dead;
HA, HA, HA
HO, HO, HO
HEE, HEE, HEE
We have gotten
A rep for being rotten
We put poison in our COfs Cream of Wheat
We're from the Eight Six
The hairy chested Eight Six
And we eat (ROAR) Raw Meat!

THE MOST CHIVILROUS FISH                                            226
The most chivilrous fish in the ocean
To ladies forbearing and mild
Though his record be dark, is the man-eating shark
Who will eat neither woman or child.
He dines upon seamen and skippers
And a tourist will his hunger aswage
And a fresh cabin boy, will inspire him with joy
If he's past the maturity age.


THE MOST CHI7ILR0US FISH (Cpn't)
A doctor a lawyer or preacher
He'll gobble up any fine day
But the ladies, God Bless 'em, he111 only address fem
Politely and go on his way.
I can raedily dite you an instance
Of a lovely young lady from Breem
Who was tender and sweet, and delicious to eat
And fell into the bay with a screanw
She struggled and flounced in the water
And signaled in vain for her barque
She would surely have drowned, if she had not been found
By a chivilrous man-eating shark.
He bowed in his manner most charming
Thus soothing her impulses wild
Don't be frightened, he said, Ifve been properly bred
And will eat neither woman nor child.
He proffered his fin and she took it
Such gallantry none can dispute
And the passengers cheered, as the vessel they neared
And the broadside was fired in s&lute.
They soon were alongside the vessel
A life saving dinghy was lowered
With a pick of the crew, and her relatives too
And the mate and the skipper aboard.
They had her on board in a jiffy
The shark stood attention the shile
Then he raised up his flipper, and gobbled up the skipper
And went on his way with a smile.
This shows that the king of the ocean
To ladies forbearing and mild
Though his record be dark, is the man-eating shark::
Who will eat neither woman nor child.

SHANTY TOWN                                                         228
There's a shanty in the town on the little plot of ground
With the green grass growin all around, all around
The roofs so worn so badly torn that it tumbles to tbef ground
Just a tumble down shack and its built way babk
nbout twenty-five feet from the railroad tracks
Lingers on mj mind most all of the time
Keeps calling me back to my little grass shack
I'd be just as sassy as Haile Selasse
If I were a king wouldn't mean a thing
Put my boots on tall read the writing on the wall
And it wouldn't mean a thing, not a goddamned thing
There's a queen waiting there in a rocking chair
Just blowing her top on Gaitors beer
I'm looking all around and trucking on down
'Cause I gotta get back to my shanty town.
MOM'S IN BED                                                        229
Mom's in bed, Pops on top

Moms in bed, pops in jail
Sis is in the gorrier yellin pussy for sale
Moms in the kitchen, pops locked up
My hunch-backed brothers got my sister knocked up
Got a mcdel T Ford, a tank full of gas
A mouth full of titty and a hand full of ass
Haven't got a nickel, haven't got a dime
A house full of kids and none of them mine.

And here's what I'd say
I wish they would put classes
All around those horses asses
In the morning a
SOUTH OF THE BORDER                                                  231
That louse of a boarder
Who else could it be
While I was away at work
That lousy jerk filled in for me
Oh I didn't get angry
Though it's driving me wild
For he may be the father of my only child ♦
Oh the baby's forst words were manana
It was then I could plainly see
That it was a real mexicana
And there'sno Spanish blood in me0
Oh I stabbed that boarder
I stabbed him that day
I cut him from the Rio Grande to the Sante Fe
I cut off his boleros
Now he'll never play
South of the border, in a Mexican way.


DRINKIN RUM AND COCA COLA                                        232
Since the 45th came to Sidi Slimane
They've got the French girls going insane
The French girls say they treat them nice
And they give them a better price.
Chorus: Drinkin rum and coca cola
Go down Port Lyautey
Both mother and daughter
Working for a Yankee dollar.
In French Morocco it is mighty clear
The Frenchman gets one can of beer
While the 45th leads a life so fine
Just making whopee all the time.
The SAC boys came to Sidi this year
The girls all thought that they were queer
They donft dance, they just drink beer
They1re glad that the 45th is here
The bomber jockeys came and left the girls so cold
They acted like a million years old
They don't spend money so they say
The wives in the states get all their pay,
Before we landed on this field
The Officers Club showed little yield
But now we'll build a club De Lux
The 45th is on the books.
The American arms so they say
Allow Frauleins only through* the day
There*s that click click click all the night
But the O.D. says it*s quite all right.
Chorus: Drinkin rum and cocacola
Go down to Walhalla
Both mother and daughter
Working for the yankee dollar.
Up in Deutschland it is clear
The girls don't drink much gin or beer
They will play and they will sin
But you've got to give up your Sabre pin.
Up in Frankfurt late one night
Our tech rep got mighty tight
Made passionate love to a blonde in black
Nov/ they're takin stitches in his back.


TO THE TABLES DOWN AT SIDI                                      233
(Tune- Whiffenpoof Song)
To the tables down at Sidi
To the place where Chester dwells
To the dear old Dallas Bar we loved so well
Sang the motley crew assembled
With their glasses raided on high
And the horrow of their singing sounds like hell.
les, the horror of their singing
Of the songs that should sound well
While we*re wasting all the morning and our rest
We will serenade our Chester
While life and limb shall last
Till hefs gone and been forgotten in the past.
We1 re the 3906th who have gone astray
Baa, baa, baa
We'll try to be good till rotation day
Baa, baa, baa
Officers, gentlemen, try to be
We think we'll be here till eternity
Oh, please send a replacement for me
Baa, baa, baa.
At the choir practice nightly
All the songs are sweet and low
Till that good old demon rum begins to flow
Then tonsils they get rusty
And the voices get off key
And the wives declare that now they have to go,
The women leave discretely
And the songs get more x&sque
And tales of war are told by those who fly
They fight the war in Burma
And the war in Europe too
And each one tries to tell a bigger lie.
We are members of the Sidi choir
La, la la
We will sing the song that you desire
La, la, la
Cocks men we profess to be
Pull of scotch type energy
Hope we live on past this spree
La, la, la.


ROTATIONAL EVE                                                  234
(Tune- Red River Valley)
Life in Sidi Slimane is so peaceful
But the rumors are true that wefve heard
The quiet is soon to be broken
By arrival of SAC!s 303rd.
From old Tucson they say they are leaving
Leaving homes and sweet lovin wives
They will come here to old French Morocco
And complicate all of our lives,
Now they'll have lots of aircraft and people
And they'll have at least thirty I know
Who will spend all of their waking moments
Making work for the base AIO.
But wefll not be about to get excited
For the answer to most of our fears
Is to pass on the buck just as always
Straight on to the Corps of Engineers.
The odds are what we cannot please them
There are sure to be waits and delays
But if we can stand it for two years
They can stand it for just thirty days.
NAUGHTY LITTLE DOG                                              235
Once I had a naughty little dog
A naughty little dog was he
I loaned him to a lady friend
To keep her company.
Now all around the house that night
That -haughty little dog did hunt
Hefd stick his nose beneath her dress
And try to smell her----
Shame on you you naughty little dog
You make my temper rise

And try to take a------
Pistol belt around my hips
And around this town I'll frolic
Take your partners in the house
While he plays with his-----
Ball, play ball the umpire cried
Oh how that man can hit
Take him to the alley
Cause I think he's going to ----
Shame on you, you naughty little boy
You know that mule will kick
And there you stand behind Turn
With your hand upon his --------
Prick the elephant with the prod

SIDI SLIMANE SONG                                              236
(Tune- On top of Old Smoky)
Now gather round closely, and we!U sing this refrain
Bout life in Morocco, at Sidi Slimane
There13 not enough women, to grace this bare land
But there's plenty of rag heads, Cactus and sand.
The heat in the daytime, will wither your soul
While all the long evenings, you shiver with cold
It's so hot in old Sidi, where no river flows
Xou'd think hell was above you, and heaven below.
Each man here will tell you, that hefs malassigned
And the Air Force commanders, have all lost their miniis
We here in Siddi, want to know why wefre here
And we111 not find our answer, in a big glass of beer.
So we?ll try seme rye whiskey, and we'll try some rum
And a gallon of cognac, and the answer will come
We need some* equipment, and we need some supplies
But any improvement, will "-be a surprise.
Work from dawn till sunset, on many big deals
While those boys from division, are dragging their heels
The boys you will notice, who take it so hard
Are recalled reservists, and the Air National Guard.
While I'm sitting here singing, I've had an idea
It's rough in Morocco, but death in Korea.

WE SOLD OUR COW                                                236
We sold our cow
We sold our cow
We've got no use
For your bull now,
CLOVIS                                                           239
He stood before the pearly gate
His face was scarred and old
He stood before the man of fate
For admission to the fold
ffWhat have you done?" St Peter said
"I've been a fighter pilot, sir,
For many and many years
I've fought the dust and flown the 'D'
With the frosen chosen few
I've been at Clevis Air Force Base
And parts of Texas too,
The pearly gates swung open wide
St Peter touched the bell
"Come in and chose your harp, my friend
Toufve had your share of Hell",
RUGGED BUT RIGHT                                                 2fci
I just called up to tell you that Ifm rugged but right
A thief and a gambler and Ifm drunk every night
I eat a porterhouse steack three times a day for my boar<t,
More than -any ordinary guy can afford
I got a big flectric fan to keep^me cool when I sleep
A good looking gal to play around with my feet
I'm just a rambling man, a gamblin1 man, drunk every night
I just called up to tell you that I'm nigged but right,
I just called up to tell you that Ifm rugged but right
A thief and a gambler and Ifm drunk every night
I've got the hips that sank the ships of England, France and Peru
And If you're like Napoleon, it's your Waterloo
I'll take a fifteen intermission in the Ford V-8
I'd like to make it longer but I've got a late date
}ty motto is "Sin be gone with the wind" so lets be breesy tonight
I just called up to tell you that I'm rugged and right,
REMEMBER                                                         242
Remember the night, when you were tight, my darling, remember
When I was on heat, and said you might, my darling, remember
Remember you found a tender spot, right in the middle of my twot
Tou said you'd withdraw before you shot
But you forgot to remember.


DRINKING SONG                                                 243
What's the use of drinking tea
Indulging in sobriety
Teetotaled perversity-
It fs healthier to boo2e.
What's the use of milk and water
These are drinks that never alter
Be aloud in any quarter
Come on lose your blues.
Mix yourself a shandy
Drown yourself in brandy
Sherry sweet or whisky neat
Or any other liquor that is handy.
What's the blinking sense in drinking
Anything that dosn't make you stinking
There is nothing quite like sinking
Blotto to the floor*
Abberrations metabolic
Ceilings that are hyperbolic
These are for the alchollc
Lying on the floor.
Vodka for your auntie
Gin to make you hearty
Lemonade was only made
For drinking when your mothers1 at the party.
Steer clear of home made beer
Or anything;that isn't labelledclear
There is nothing elst to fear
Bottoms up my boys.
UP THE DUFF
My girl-friend's up the duff in Canberra city,
She's only got another month to go
I took her out to Luna Park, and went aboard the dipper
Then coining down the stairs I tried my very best to trip her
It looks as tho' its going to be a very stubborn nipper
For she's only got another month to grow
She's gone about as far as she can go.
She told me many months ago that it was getting late
According to the calendar I've only one to wait
Four weeks and a day or two should be the opening date.
I took her to the doctor, I took her to a quacks
I took her on a motor Mke over bumpy tracks
But I expect a rebate on my next year's income tax.


THE COLONEL'S LAMENT                                         245
The 523rd went out to fly one dark and stormy night
And as they taxied past I heard the old Colonel say
The 523rd is gonnaf fly, it makes me mighty proud
To know I have one squadron who will penetrate a cloud.
The Five and Dime went out to fly one bright and sunny day
And as they taxied past I heard the old Colonbl say
The Five and Dime is gonna1 fly, I've got a right to sweat
They auger in a booger up-Xfll loose my eagles yet.
Chorust What a bunch of meatheads! What a bunch of schmoos!
The PAF and Navy can stay, but they have to go!
A LOST FIGHTER PILOT                                         246
(Tune- The Wiffenpoof Song)
In the sky at angels 40
In a thunderstorm so black
Sat a pilot in his delta Dagger Jet
Now his engine was a'chuggin and he thought the end was near
But he didn't want to buy the farm just yet
Now his TACAN wasnft pointing and his radar set was bent
And the fuel in his tanks was going fast
So he pressed the black mike botton and breathed into the air
MAYDAY-MAYDAT-RAISOR-RAISOR save my ass.
I'm a poor fighter pilot on a cross-country, S-O-S
That I'm lost you can plainly see, S-O-S
It's- so lonely way up here
Just get me back and I'll buy the beer
3-0-S,
DOWN IN THE VALLET                                           247
The first time I saw her she was all dressed in white,
All in white, all in white, my God, her cunt was tight,
Down in the valley, where she followed me,
The next time I saw her she was all dressed in brown,
All in brown, all in brown, I took her nickers down,
Down in-the valley where she followed me.
The next time I saw her she was all dressed in green,
All in green, all in green, I filled her soup tureen,
Down in the valley, where she followed me.
The next time I saw her she was all dressed in fawn,
All in fawn, all in fawn, two little bastards born,
Down in the valley where she followed me.
The next time I saw her she was all dressed in red,
All in red, all in red, two little bastards dead,
Down in the valley were she followed me.
The next time I saw her she was all dressed in black
All in black, all in black, boards nailed across her crack,
Down in the valley where she followed me.


KHARTOUM                                                           2ft8
There's bags of batchy airmen, waydown in the sunny Soudan
Where everyone is batch and so's the fucking old fl^an
There's bags and bags of bullshit, saluting on the square
And when we're not saluting we're up in the fucking air*
We're leaving Khartonn by the light of the moon
We travel by night and by day
As we pass Kasfereit, we'll have fuck all to eat
'Cause we've thrown all our rations away,
Shire, Shire, Somersetshire,
The skipper looks on her with pride
He'd have a bpfue fit if he saw any shit
On the side of the Somersetshire.
This is my story, this is my song,
I've been in this Air Force too fucking long
So bring on the Rodney, the nelson, renown
They can't bring the Hood, 'cause the fuckers goi^br down
Tooralay, Tooralay,
Oh, we'll fuck all the SPs who cease down our way.
MT GRANDFATHERS COCK                                               249
Ify Grandfather's cock was too long for his slacks
So it drug niney years on the floor
It was longer by half than the old man himself
Though it weighed no a pennyweight more
It was found on the morn of the day that he was born
And was always his pleasure and pride
But it drooped, wilted, never to rise again
When the old man died
Ninety years without limbering
What a cock, what a cofck!
His pieces of ass numbering
What a cock, what a cock!
But it drooped, wilted never to rise again
When the old man died.
HT FAMILY                                                            250
Have you met my Uncle Hector
He's a cock and ball inspector
At a celebrated English public school
And my brother sells French letters
And a patent cure for wetters
We're not the best of familys, aint it cruel?
!$r little sister lily, is a whore on Piccadilly
}fy mother is another on the Strand,
}fy father hawks his arse*hoie
Round the Elephant and Castle,
We're the finest fuckin family in the land.


MT FAMILY (Conft)                                    250
There's a gentlemen's convenience
A short Kay down the Strand
And the Ladies is a little further on
For a penny on deposit, you can sit upon the closet
But a season'® ticket costs you half a crown,
BRITISH GRENADIERS                                              251
Some die of diabetes, and dome of diarrhoea,
Some die of drinking whisky and some of drinking beer
But of all the world's diseases there's none that can compare
With the drip, drip, drip, from the end of your prick
Of the British Gonorrhea.
RO-TIDDX&-EE-0                                               252
Oh Mr Fishex,man, home from the sea
Have you any lobsters you can sell to me.
Chorus? Singing Ro~tiddle-ee-o, shit or bust,
Never let your bollocks dangle in the dust*
"Yes" said the fishermen I have two,
The biggest of the bastards I will sell toyou
I wrapped the lobster up and I took the bastards heme
I showed it to the missus but she was on the phone*
I opened up the fridge but I couldn't find a dish,
So I put it in the place where the missus has a piss*
Now half-way through the night as you must know
The mfssu© got up to have a so-and-so.
Now the missus gave a squeal and the missus gave a grunt
When the silly fucking lobster bit her on the cunt.
Now I picked up a mop and the missus grabbed a broom,
And we chased that fucking lobster all around the room.
Now we hit itt on the head and we hit it on the side
We hit that fucking lobster till the bastard died.
There's a moral to this story and the moral is this,
Always have a shufty before you have a piss.
That's the end of this story and there isn't any more
There's an apple up my arse-hole, you can have the core.


ROLL ME OVER                                                 253

Now this is number three, and his hand is on my knee
Now this is number four, and hefs got me on the floor

Chorus: Rollme over lay me down and do it again,
Roll me over in the clover,
Roll me over, lay me down and do it again.

Now this is number eight, and the doctor1 s at the gate,
Now this is number nine, and the twins are doing fine
Now this is number ten, and he's started once again*

I want to play piano in a whorehouse
That is my one desire
Some may be bankers or ranchers out in Bu|bte
I just want to play in a house of ill reptite
You may laugh at this my humble advocation
But carnal copulation is here to stay
I donft want fame or riches
I just want to play for those old bitches
r want to play piano in a whorehouse.
BLOODY SPARROW                                               255
There once was bloody sparro, what lived up bloody spout
Along came bloody rainstorm and washed that feugger out
Along came bloody sparrow hawk, and spied him in his snuggery

The moral of this story, so plain to everyone
That them that lives up bloody sputs

CATS ON THE ROOF TOPS (JOHN PEEL)                                  257
CHORUS: Cats on the rooftops, cats on the tiles,
Cats with the syphilis, the clap and the piles,
Cats with their arse-holes wreathed in smiles,
As they revel in the joys of copulation.
The donkey is a solitary moke
He very seldom gets a poke
But when he does, he comes in streams
As he revels. . .
Hippopotamus so it seems
Very seldom has wet dreams
But when he does, he comes in streams
As he revels.....
Poor old bovine, poor old b£Ll
Very seldom gets a pull
But when he does, the cow is full
As he revels......
Poor little tortoise in his shell
Doesn't manage very well
But when he does he fucks like hell
As he revels.......
Now the hairy old gorrilla is a sedentary ape
Who very seldom does much rape
But when he does he comes like tape
As he revels.....
Bow-legged women shit like goats
Bald headed men all fuck like stoats
While the congregation sits and gloats
And revels in.......
Now I met a girl and she was a dear
But she gave me a dose of gonorrhea
Fools ruch in where angels fear
To revel......
Do you ken John Peel with his coat so gay
He'3 a dirty old sod so all men say
For he can't toss off in the normal way
So his hounds lick his horn in the monning
When you wake up in the morning and you're feeling full of joy
And your wife isn't willing and your daughter isn't coy
Then you've got to use the arse-hole of your eldest boy
As you revel........
When you wake up in the morning with a ten inch stand
And there isn't any woman in the whole of the land
Then there's nothing for it but to use your hand
An you revel in the joys of copulation.

Rave you ever been in the Philipines
The place is full of Pom-pom queens
The clap is bad, but the syph is worse
So flub your dub for safety first
Chorus: Singing rum and coca cola, come down to old Angeles
Both mother and daughter, working for the GI dollar
The women with their dirty feet
Walk up and down Angeles street
They come up close and whisper low
nHow about a little pom-pom, Joe"
The Philippines pimp is very smart
He gets his dough before you start
The pom-pom there is very nice
But twenty pesos is a helluva price

SONG OF THE SABRES                                                 268
I looked upon the schedule and was happy as a king
For once I had a mission that I wasn't flying wing
I went down to the briefing rdom and my tiger blood went ping
For there sat Col, Joe McSchmoe and they had me on his wing
For there sat Colo Joe McSchmoe and they had me on his wing.
The mission was all briefed to go at quarter after nine
Gabby had given us all the poop, the weather it was fine
"One word of advice, "he daid to us, "though I hate to spoil your Am
"Stay out form in fromnt of that MIG 15, it's got too big a gun.w
"Stay out from in f^ont of that Mig If, it's got too big a gun.?


SONG OF THE SABRES (Conft)
We were augerin1 around away up there as watchful as could b*
Red leader said, "Take a look at six and see what you can see11
I took a look at six o'clock and much to my surprise,
I discovered a BOOM BOOM BOOM right before my eyes.
I discovered a BOOM BOOM BOOM right before my eyes.
The cannon balls were flying around as thick as they could be.
I took one look and said, says I, this ain't no place for me.
I rolled it over and sucked it through and took it down below.
Sayin1 get out of here with that BOOM BOOM BOOM and don't come
back 40 mo' •
8ayin! get out of here with that BOOM BOOM BOOM and don't come
back no mo? 0
I shoved the throttle to the wall a'running for my life.
Bed leader said, "Come back here, you coward, and jpin in the strife".
"You an -", I said with quaking voice, "this ain't no place for ME".
So I racked it up and pulled it around and took it out to sea*
So I racked it up and pulled it around and took it out to sea.
I took a hit upon the wing, another in the tail
The way that Sabre was bucking aroujid, I'd surely have to bail,
I reached into the cockpit and pulled the handle red,
If I hadn't gooten out of that flaming wreck, I'd surely wound up dead.
If I hadn't gotten out of that flaming wreck, I'd surely wound up dead.
The moral of this story is, if you're ever in a fight,
And you've got a MIG at six o'clock, and he's all tucked in tight
Don't ever roll out or pull it up, that is my advice to you.
Cause you'll never get rid of that SOB not matter what you do.
Cause you'll never get rid of that SOB not matter w^iat you do.
LAST SATURDAY NIGHT                                                     269*
When I came home last Saturday night as drunk as I could be
I saw a hat upon the rack, where my hat ought to be.
I daid to my darling wifey f,Now tell all of it to me."
Who owns that hat upon the rack, where my hat. ought to be."
She said, "You're blind, you're drunk, you silly old cunt
You're blind and cannot see*
For that is a basin that you're mother gave to me
In all my worldly travels^. ten -tKeusSia -miles or more,
I've never seen a basin with a hat band on before.
I saw a coat upon the bed..*,.
"For that is a blanket that your mother gave to me"
I've nev^r seen a blanket with brass buttons on before.
I saw a head beside the head00..
"For that is a turnip that your mother gave to me".
*?IL've nerer seen a turnip with a mustache on before."
I saw a thing beside the thing....
"For that is a foiling pin your mother gave to me"
I've never seen a rolling pin with balls on it before
I saw a bum beside a bum
"For that's the dear young baby yourseltf you gave to me"
I've never seen a baby's bum with «arts on it before.

If I ware a marrying maid, which thank the Lord Ifm not, sir,

We'd be alright in the middle of the night
Finding touch together♦
A wing three-quarter-----------He'd go fast
A center three-quarter----------He'd go straight
A stand off half----------------He'd go through
A Rugby serun half--------------He'd put it in
A rugby loose forward------------He'd break fast
A second row forward------------He'd bind tight
A front row forward-------------He'd pufeh hard
A rugby referee----------------He'd blow hard
A rugby linesinan----------------He'd put it up

THE PORTIONS OF A WOMAN                                                 271
The portions of a 'woman that appeal to man's depravity,
Are fashioned with considerable car©
And vhat at first appparis to be a harmless little cavi*y
Is really an elaborate affair.
Doctors of distinction have examined the abdemena
Of various e^orimantal ckaaes
And havo listed the components of these vrcmanly phenamena
And given thesa most charsdng Latin names <>
There's the clitoris, tho vagina, the vulva, perineum,
And the hycon in the caso of certain brides,
Delightful ittDH devices you would love if you could see fem,
There1s a hundred other little things besides•
Isn't it a pity then, that when we poor men chatter
Upon tho things to v/ich I have referred
We use for vhat is really a most explicated matter
Such a short and unattractive little word,


THE PORTIONS OF A WOMAN (Con't)
The Reply
The erudite authorities who study the geography
Of these remote but interesting lands
Are able to indulge their taste for intimate topography
And view the scenic details close at hand#
But while we lesser mortals are aware of the existence
Of mysteries beneath the public knoll
We1 re normally contented to survey them at a distance
And treat them, roughly speaking, as a (w) hole.
But when we are confronted with some morsel of virginity
We exercise a gentle sense of touch
We do not cloak the matter in meticulous Latinity
But call the whole affair a such and sucho
Men have made this useful but inelegant commodity
The subject of inumerable jibes,
And while the name we call it by is something of an oddity
It seems to fit the subject it describes„

Some folks stick to buggery, and some think fucking is grand
But for personal enjoyment, I shall always use my hand.

LAMENT OF THE RESERVIST                                            289
(Tone- ligarettes and Whiskey)
I was a civilian and flew one weekends
No sweat about blanks and no sign of the bends
But I am a retread and older,I g^ow
Now I fly a Mustang, its9 old and1 It's slow0

^Chorus? Sinuiju and An&k, Sinaaju and Sissmak
They511 driv^ you @ra^y, they; 11 drive you insane
Quad fifties and forties, and one hundred sorties
They * 11 drive yom§&ssy


LAMENt OF THE RESEH7IST (Con't)
Oh, onca I was happy and I flew a jet
At 35,000 how fat can you get?
They sent me to Nellis for six weeks to trian
They gave me a Mustang, It's no aero-plane•
We strafed and we bombed and we shot air.to air
Then off to Korea, we're fouled up for fair
We came to K~F©ur-Six to fly with this Group
Ify hair°a turning gray and my wings have a droop!
1 flew my first mission and it was a snap
Just follow the leader, donft look at a map
But now Ifve got eighty and lead a sad flight
Go out on armed recce and can't sleep and night
Went up to Mig Alley, S-2 said no sweat
If I had not looked around, Ifd be up thejre yet
Six Migs jumped our----and the leader yealled break
Sixty-one and 3000, how me knees did shake!
If I live through a hundred and they ask for more
Ifll tell them to shove it my--- is too sore
They can ram it and jam it for all that I care
Just give me a Wing job, a desk and a chair!

Underneath the lamp post by the barracks gate,
Standing all alone, every night youfU see her wait,

And though he*s gone she hears him say
Oh, promise you?11 be true

Where romance blooms and fades,
A great Philadelphia lawyer
Was in love with a Hollywood maid*
Cone love and we will wander

And we can get married tonight *
Now bill wag a gun~toting cowboy
T©n notches ware carved on his gun
And all the boys ©round Reno

ROLLING DOWN THE RUNWAY                                             292
Rolling down the runway at ninety-eight percent,
The colonel out his throttle,
}fy God, I was hell bent,
I pull off to the left,
And bounced into the boon docks,
Glory, G$.ory Halleluja, what a bunch of "Rcfeks".
Chorus: Oh, Halleluja, Oh, Halleluja,
Throw a nickel on the grass, save a fighter pilot's life,
Oh, Halleluja, Oh, Halleluja,
Throw a nideel on the grass and you111 be eared*
I threw my throttle forward
Up to a hundred ®nd one
I bounced off the runway lights after the damage was done,
I pulled back on the stick and ricocheted some more
Glory, Glory, what "goat" even at full bore.
I then pulled up my gear,
The cockpit filled with smoke
My wingman passed me by,
Hy God, it was no joke.
He then looked over at me
And saw a great long tear*
Glory, Glory, Halleluja, how did I get there?
I then cam® in for landing
Just after it started to rain,
And there sat Flying Safety with a gash-darn ball and chain,
They sent me before the board,
And gave me the works*
Glory, Glory Hallelu4a, what a bunch of jerks.
THE COWBOY'S LAMENT                                                 293
As I walked out on the streets of Laredo,
As I walked out in Laredo one day,
I spied a cowpuncher all wrapped up in white linen
All wrapped in white linen as cold as the clay.
0, beat the drum slowly and play the fife lowly,
Play the dead march as you carry me along,
Take me to the valley, there lay the sod ofer me
For I'm a young cowboy and I know I've done wrong,
I see by your outfit that you are a cowboy
These words he did say as I slowly stepped by
Con© sit down beside me and hear my sad story
I'm ©hot in the breast and I know I must die.
It was once in the saddle I used to go dashing,
Once in the saddle I used to g$ gay
Then I first took to drinking and then took to gambling
Got shot in the breast and I'm dying today.


THE COWBOT'S LAMENT (Con't)
Let sixteen gamblers come carry my coffin
Let six pretty maidens come sing me a song
Take me to the graveyard, there roll the sod ofer me
For Ifm a yoting cowboy and I know I've done wrong,
We beat the drum slowly and played the fife lowly
And bitterly wept as we bore him along
For we all loved our comrade so brave, young, and handsome,
We all loved our comrade altho* he'd done wrong.
THE FOGGT, FOGGY DEW                                                 294
When I was a bachelor, I lived all alone
I worked at the weaveras trade
And the only, only thing that I did that ims wrong,
Was to woo a fair yoting maid
I wooed her in the wintertime,
Part of the summer too
And the only, only thing that I did that was wrong,
Was to keep her form the foggy, foggy dew0
One night she knelt close by my side,
When I was fast asleep,
She threw her arms around my neck
And then began to weep
She sept, she cried, she damned near died,
Ah, me, what could I do
So all night long I held her in my arms,
Just to keep her from the foggy, foggy dew.
Again I8m a bachelor, I live with my son,
We work at the weaver*® trad®
And every single time I look into his eyes
He reminds me of that fair young maid
He riminds me of the wintertime
Bart of the summer too
And of the many, many times that I held her in my arms
Just to keep her from the foggy, foggy dew.
THE FOUR BASTABDS                                                 295
lo I'm a Democratic figure in these autocratic States
A Pathetic Demonstration of heriditary traits
As the daughter® of the bakers baked the most delicious breads,
As the sons of Casanova filled the most exclusive beds
As the Rossesvelts and Barrymores — and others I could name
Inherited their talents which perpetuate their fame
My position in the structure of Society I owe,
To those little qualities my parents bequeathed me long ago
Now my father w&s a traveling man and musical to boot
He used to play piano in the House of ill-repute
Where the Madam **ss a lady and credit to her cult
She enjoyed my Daddjr*s playing and I was the result
So my mammy and my pappy are the ones I have to thank
That I grew up to BE PRESIDENT of the City National Bank I


THE POOR BASTARDS (Con't)
II. In a cosy little farmhouse In a cosy little Dell
A dear old faahoined father and hie daughter need to dwell
She was sweet, she was gentle, ehe was tender, ehe was adld
Bat her sympathies were such that she was frequently with child*
Now the hired man was a favorite with the gal's in Manny's set
And the traveling man from Scranton was an evennnoney bet.
For such were mammy's morals — and such was her alure
That even Roger Babson wasn't very sure.
When she was feeling gloomy I could always make her grin,
By childishly inquireing who my papy might have been.
So I took my mammy's morals and I took my pappy!s crust,
And they appointed me head of a huge Investment trust.
IH. In a cosy Utile chain gang on a dusty southern road
My late lamented papp£ has his permanent abode
Now seme were there for stealing, but my pappyt's only fault
Was an overwhelming weakness for criminal assault
His philosopy was simple and free from moral tape,
Seduction is for sissies, but a He-man has his rape
And tho pappy1 s list of victims was incredibly rich
And mammy she was one of them* he'd never teU me whichi
How I never went to college, but I got me a degree
I reckon I'm the model of a perfect SOB
I'm a debit to my country, but Pna credit to my Dad
I'm the most expensive SENATOR this nation ever had*
I?. Vm an autocratic figure in these decmocratlc states
A pathetic demonstration of hereditary traits,
As the daughters of policement have the largest feet
As the daughter of the floogie has a wiggle to feer seat
My position at the Bottom of society I owe
To those little qualities my parents bequeathed me long ago
How my father her was a married man And fchat is even more
He was married to my Mother, a fact which I deplore
I was born in holy wedlock, consequently by — and by
I was rooked by every bastard with plunder in his eye
B I invested, I deposited, I voted every fall —
And if I had a nickel the bastards took it all
But at last I9ve learned my lesson and I!m on the proper track
I9m a self-appointed bastard, and I'm out to get it back*
THROTTLE BENDER                                                     296
(Tune- McNamara's Band)
Jfy name is Throstle Bender,
I'm the leader or the jsangj
I burned up lots of engines*
But I don't give a hang
To me full bo^e is normal cruise,
Cause I don't give a darn
My boys nerw can catch me
Theyfve got a lot to learno


THROTTLE BENDER (Conft)
Chorus s We are the boys from Ifcaasuti,

But I don?t give a hooto
I climb too slow, I dive too fast
I pull excessive G°s
I know my boys are following
I hear their knocking knees0
My name is Throttle Bender,
Fm the leader of the Wing,
I havenft led a group in years
So I don't know a thing
About the wing formation, boys,
That I am going to lead;
But I'm the wing Commander
So there really is no needo
No if you^ lead a flight, boys,
Or if you lead a Groupj
Lend an ear and you will hear
The latest kind of poopo
From ToKeeyo to Sa&$m®go
Tou1!! hear the boy® all say,
The leader bent the throttle, so
I had a rough day todayo
WALTZING MATILDA                                                   297
Once a jolly swagraan camped by the brill-along
Under th$ shade of a coolibah tree,
And he sang as he sat and waited till his billy boiled}
Tou*11 come a-walt&ing Matilda with me*
CHORUS Waltzing Matilda, waltzing Matilda,
You811 come a-waltxing Matilda with me*
And he sang as he sat and waited till his billy boiled
Tou°11 com® a-waltsing Matilda with me.
Down came a jumbuck to drink at the billalong,
Up jumped the sw&gm&n and grabbed him with glee
And he sang as he gtowsd that jumbuck in his tucker bag
Tou911 cone &~walts±ng Matilca with ae0
Up rode a squater mounted on his thoroughbred,
Up rode his troopg, ©ns, two, three
Where8® that jolly jumbuck, ymivve got in your tucker bag?
Tou*U case a*-walt3ing Matilda with mec


WALTZING MATILDA (Con't)
Up Jumped the swagman, sprang into the brillalong
You'll never catch me alive said he
And bis ghost may be heard as you pass by the brillalong
You'll come a-waltsing Matilda with me.
It is sad, but true, that sooner or later,  most Fighter Pilots
find themselves shafted out of a Squadron,   and into that oft
cursed orginazation called Air Base Group.    This song is for
them to sing to their former friends.
Tune - SAVE A FIGHTER PILOTS ASS
Pilots, gentle Pilots, pilots one and all
Fly boys, flashy fly boys, please listen to our call
Buss* boys, busy Bum boys, this is all we ask
Take those Goddamn Sabre Jets and shove them up your ass.
Chorus; Sing Halleluia, Sing Halleluia
Stick your finger up your ass, join the fighter pilot class
Sing Halleluia, Sing Halleluia
Stick your finger up your ass and flap your wings•
Who feeds the sons of bitches and clothes their scrawny backs
Who guards their goddamn airplanes and heats their fucking shacks
Who gives them light and water, not Mmpo Power and Gas
If they don't like the service they can blow it oirt* their ass.
TBI to Tsuiki, went the Sabre Dapce
Saw a Sukoshi pilot get a Josans pants
It cost him thirty dollars for just a little feel
Along came an Air Base Group man who got it for a steal.
Jet Jocks are the hot shots, we'll tell you one and all
And\ when it comes to shooting, they9re really on the ball
They had^a little contest to prove who was the first
But when the score was counted they ended up the worst.
Tou see these flashy Jet Boys, climb from their shiny hacks
With moon suits and silly jock straps a hanging from their backs
They sing the praise of Sammy Small with wild and side aclaim
Just Fighter Pilots—Pilots, without a fucking brain.
They spin their yaras of Air Way, by pilots brave and fair
Eighty per®ent is bull-shit, and twenty more is air
We hear that theyre' by far the best and that we'd better believe
But where in the Hell would the fly boys be
If the Air Base Group should leave*
The squawk box screams of flak holes and tanks all out of gas
Of takusan MIG's and bandits a playing on their ass
They git their bloomin balls shot off but still they brag of it
With one accord we'll tell the world, They Can't Fly For SHIT.
THE END
