From the amazing "HORNTIP dot COM" "Jack Horntip Collection
The 354th Tactical Fighter Squadron 1967 song #232
If you like Rugby/Hash/Military/Fraternity songs-recitations - His collection is worth
a several hour browse. And like John Mahlberg's work, there are
many field recordings. Certainly the place to deposit my mimeographed papers.
DRINKIN RUM AND COCA COLA
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
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.
Sincerely,
Gargoyle
