Subject: RE: Lyr Req: Airborne Ranger Song (US Army 82nd)
From: GUEST,Guest - Pittielynn
Date: 07 Apr 09 - 10:40 PM

Here's my version (what I can remember of this song)

1-3-5-7
I just died and went to heaven
On my way I heard this song
Now I know I can't go wrong

Two old ladies lying in bed
One rolled over the other ones dead
I wanna be an Airborne Ranger
Living the life of sex and danger

I wanna go to Vietnam
I wanna kill some viet-comms

I wanna go to Afghanistan
I wanna kill some Taliban

I wanna go to Israel
I wanna raise some airborne hell

I wanna go to the USA
I'm gonna get me a green berret.


Red light, red light, green at last
Open up the door and feel the blast
If my main don't open wide,
I've got another one by my side!
If that one should fail me too,
If my second don't open true
Well look out ground I'm coming through

With my rifle with my gun
I'm gonna have some shootin' fun
If I die in the combat zone
Box me up and ship me home
Pin my medals upon my chest
Tell my momma I did my best

I wanna be an airborne ranger
Living the life of sex and danger

Now I don't remember it all, but if I think of anything else I will post it.

Dude order the 82nd Airborne Division Chorus Cd.

It has all these classics like:

"Once I was infantry now I'm airborne,
Riding in gliders all tattered and torn"

It's probably available thru the 82nd museum or gift shop online somewhere. Or get it at the convention they have each year, that's where I got it.

The Ranger song I wanna be an Airborne Ranger has nothing to do with 82nd...

And the chorus of it is

Glorious, Victorious, one keg of beer for the four of us.
Glory be to god that there ain't no more of us, cause one of us could drink it all alone
Damn near, pass a bear, to the rear of the squad.

Some of the lines are like,
You can tell an airborne ranger by his hallway (by his hallway)
You can tell an airborne ranger by his hallway (by his hallway), Cause the floor is lined with glass and its always full of ass
You can tell an airborne ranger by his hallway.

Or,
You can tell an airborne ranger by his ruck (by his ruck)
You can tell an airborne ranger by his ruck (by his ruck)
Cause its as big as a truck and its heavy as fuck
You can tell an airborne ranger by his ruck

The one about wives...

DISCLAIMER: Following material could be offensive to individuals, no insult is intended to any persons who reads the following.

You can tell an Airborne Ranger by his wife (By his wife)
You can tell an Airborne Ranger by his wife (By his wife)
Cause she fucks just like a stallion you can ask the whole battalion
You can tell an Airborne Ranger by his wife.

Or for a girlfriend,

You can tell an Airborne Ranger by his girlfriend (By his girlfriend)
You can tell an Airborne Ranger by his girlfriend (By his girlfriend)
Cause her legs are always spread and she's always giving head
You can tell an Airborne Ranger by his girlfriend.

Those are just a few.

and he cried good lord it's true zimbabwa chicks are everywhere there hot for me and you

I was USMC 1st Force Recon and we technically didn't have any real songs. However, there was one I heard but don't know the words. It was sung to the tune of "beautiful Dreamer". All I remember are the first two lines:
"Beautiful streamer, open for me... (don't know the rest).
Anybody know the rest of it?

Welcome Mr. larryroe - here you go.

http://www.506infantry.org/songstreamer.htm

Beautiful streamer, open for me,
Blue skies above me and no canopy;
Counted nine thousand, waited too long,
Reached for my rip cord, the darn thing was gone.

Beautiful streamer, why must it be?
White silk above me is what I should see
Just like my mother that looks over me;
To hell with the rip cord, 'twas not made for me.

Beautiful streamer, follow me down,
Time is elapsing and here is the ground;
Six hundred feet and then I can tell
If I'll go to heaven or end up in hell.

Beautiful streamer, this is the end,
Gabriel is blowing, my body won't mend;
All you jump-happy sons of a gun,
Take this last warning as jumping's no fun.

Used in Title of the Play
The Basic Training of Pavlov Hummel and Sticks and Bones. Streamers

Just wanted to pipe in for the Joe who said he served in Regiment for three years and never once sang or marched to a cadence. B.S. - we used to have the Regimental and Battalion CDRs and CSMs call cadence during battalion runs on a regular basis.

The only time we didn't sing cadence was during squad PT. Marching to cadence was not unusual either. The only thing different was that the lyrics to the marching cadences had to be toned down if you were maneuvering through any public places on Benning.

It may be a surprise to at least one poster that "real Rangers" do actually sing Ranger cadences, and, no, they are not all recycles. What real Rangers don't do is write "lol" at the end of their gay monologue...

Have a nice day.

Well that may be the case for you 3rd batt guys. But in 4 years at 2nd batt, we had one battallion run that i can remember, the only time i ever sang cadence thank God. But when we did it, it was fuckin loud as hell, even though its gay. I had a hatred for cadence since i was an import from a regular shithole infantry unit that always sang that "i wanna be an airborne ranger" bullshit. And as far as rendevous goes, i was always either deployed, or in a school, so never got to do any regimental shit. I think they made us sing cadence in pre ranger though for the 5 mile run. I don't know why the fuck i just wrote all this pointless shit, just nice to say whats up to fellow batt boys. RLTW

Yeah, guys in the Rgt. sang cadence but only for special occasions mentioned above by that 3rd bat-boy (appropriate ones if running around the "legs" or public); one special occasion for all the Ranger privates would be on the bus rides back from the ranges; kept our asses from getting smoked in the bus... sometimes.

"Who can take two ice picks,

From Jump school at Ft Benning Georgia in 1977 one running cadence was. My Old Granny was a hell of a whore she was giving head at the age of 4...
Then one from Ft Bragg in the 82nd airborne - went like this... Momma told sally not to go down town too many paratroopers hanging around Sally got made and she went on down, she came back home with a belly round, 3 months later she began to sweel,six months later she was big as hell, nine months later and out it came 10 paratroopers on a daisy chain...
