chorus chorus fire fight, fire fight, just had another fire fight; lead was flyin, men were dyin war is hell--and full of fright just had another fire fight. you nevr know, when its gonna happen, all you hear is, ---ak's snappin you hit the dirt and start a-prayin hopin someone--hears what your sayin. you flip your iron to--rock and roll squeeze the trigger, let 'er go. she gets so hot--you can't hold on but by this time --charlie's gone cries for 'medic' --men are screamin your mate is dead, there's no more dreamin. bayoneted rifle, to hell with fright charge the cong, we' ll win the fight --- this song by jim ellis of the 1st cav was contributed by glenn gustafson, and was sung in the cav in 1970. I added the last verse, the song was too good to just have 2 verses, and while the song does express the feelings of most infantrymen in vietnam, the last verse expresses what I and my mates felt in that circumstance. .
