It Makes a Fellow Proud to be a Soldier
The heart of every man in our platoon must swell with pride, For the nation's youth, the cream of which is marching at his side. For the fascinating rules and regulations that we share, And the quaint and curious costumes that we're called upon to wear.
Now Al joined up to do his part defending you and me. He wants to fight and bleed and kill and die for liberty. With the hell of war he's come to grips, Policing up the filter tips, It makes a fella proud to be a soldier!
When Pete was only in the seventh grade, he stabbed a cop. He's real R.A. material and he was glad to swap His switchblade and his old zip gun For a bayonet and a new M-1. It makes a fella proud to be a soldier!
After Johnny got through basic training, he Was a soldier through and through when he was done. It's effects were so well rooted, That the next day he saluted A Good Humor man, an usher, and a nun.
Now Fred's an intellectual, brings a book to every meal. He likes the deep philosophers, like Norman Vincent Peale. He thinks the army's just the thing, Because he finds it broadening. It makes a fella proud to be a soldier!
Now Ed flunked out of second grade, and never finished school. He doesn't know a shelter half from an entrenching tool. But he's going to be a big success. He heads his class at OCS. It makes a fella proud to be a soldier!
Our old mess sergeant's taste buds had been shot off in the war. But his savory collations add to our esprit de corps. To think of all the marvelous ways They're using plastics nowadays. It makes a fella proud to be a soldier!
Our lieutenant is the up-and-coming type. Played with soldiers as a boy you just can bet. It is written in the stars He will get his captain's bars, But he hasn't got enough box tops yet.
Our captain has a handicap to cope with, sad to tell. He's from Georgia, and he doesn't speak the language very well. He used to be, so rumor has, the Dean of Men at Alcatraz. It makes a fella proud to be, When as a kid I vowed to be, One ought to be allowed to be A soldier. (At ease!)
