WANTED:Jodies!

[That Anonymous Guy]

here is a very good version of the popular "C-130" Jodie


C-130 rollin' down the strip,
Hit a pothole and started to flip!
Alpha Flight(or whatever flight you don't like )
was trapped in side,
now theyre all kentucky fried!

Our encampments on a base used solely by C-130s so I think this jodie is out of the question.

Are You from NYWg? The NYWg encampment (Stratton ANG base)  site has only C-130's and LC-130's.

Maybe...

Well, Stratton ANG base is the only base that has the LC-130's that go to the polar regions. And I think you are from NYWg since Stratton is used solely for C-130's/LC-130's.  Believe me, I've done my research on Stratton

[That Anonymous Guy]

Fine you caught me lol, yeah it's a nice base from what I saw.

[Black Knight]

Did you go to last year's encampment? I was in Charlie. I got the 3rd highest overall score.   (And I was the 2nd youngest cadet there) And Stratton is nice. Thats where my Great-grandparents met, so I have some family history there.

Let's get back on topic, please.

How about the original?

C-130 rollin' down the strip,
Fifty-two troopers on a one way trip.
Mission top secret destination unknown,
They don't know if they're coming home.

C-130 on the taxi-way,
Looks like Airborne'll jump today.
Stand up, hook up shuffle to the door,
Jump right out and count to four!

If my main doesn't open up wide,
I've got a reserve by my side!
And if that one fails me too,
Look out earth I'm coming through!

I think there was more, but I can't remember the rest.

[That Anonymous Guy]

I've hear people lead it straight into "If I die in the old drop zone"

If I die I in the old drop zone
Box me up and ship me home
Pin my ribbons upon my chest
And tell my mama Ive done my best.

[TJT__98]

That reminded me of how I heard it. Very similar, but it's a little different.
And if that one fails me too,
Look out earth I'm coming through.
Tell my sergeant I did my best,
Pin my wings upon my chest.

[Майор Хаткевич]

Birdie, birdie in the sky,
dropped some white wash in my eye.
i don't complain and i don't cry,
i'm just glad that cows can't fly.
left, left, left, your right, your left


Everywhere we go
People wanna know
Who we are
So we tell them
We're not the Navy
The deck swabbing Navy
We're not the Army
The ground poundin' Army
We're not the Marines
They dont even look mean
We are the air force
The high-flying airforce
Top notch air force


I also really like this one. The tone, syncopation, harmony, and sound is awesome. This is the whole lyric http://www.armystudyguide.com/content/cadence/marching_cadence/some-say-freedom-is-free.shtml http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=c8-XkPJXhCw#

Don't think that would work at our encampment. Lol.

[Black Knight]

Heres one we used:

When I get to Germany
Hitler will say
Howd you get to Germany
In just one day
And I'll reply with a whole lotta anger
Glory, Guts and a little bitta danger

There were other countries but I forgot them. But we did make a "parody" at encampment.

When I get to Canada
Justin Beiber will say
How'd you get to Canada
In just one day
And ill reply with a whole lotta anger
Glory, guts, and little bitta danger.

Theres also:

Down by the River
Took a little walk
Ran into _____(whatever flight you don't like)
We pushed 'em
(HEY)
We shoved 'em
(HEY)
Threw 'em in the river
And laughed as they drowned
We don't need no ______(same flight as before)
Hanging around.

I think there was more, but I can't remember the rest.

For what it's worth, I believe a C-130 can hold 64 combat-equipped paratroopers instead of 52. It is a tight fit and the jumpmasters move around inside the aircraft by walking on top of the Soldier's equipment/legs (as I recall the scene from back in the Dark Ages when I was briefly down at the Benning School for Wayward Boys for three fun-filled weeks).

In case you are curious, the agenda for the Basic Airborne Course is:

Week 1: Separate the men from the boys
Week 2: Separate the men from the fools
Week 3: The fools jump

C-130's arent that cramped. At least when I went on...

Were you a "combat-equipped paratrooper"? If not, then it won't be cramped.

How could I forget! I heard both of those the entire week! There's also Libya, A-Stan, Vietnam and Iraq

I've heard a couple variations of the running cadence too-
When I get to Heaven
Saint Peter's gonna say
How'd you earn your living?
How'd you earn your pay?
And I'll reply with a whole lotta anger,
Made my living as an Airborne Ranger (note you can replace the Airborne Ranger as appropriate- how about "Ground Team Member")

When I get to Burger King
Cashier's gonna say
How you want your Whopper?
Do you want it your way?
And I'll reply with a whole lotta mayo,
Extra lettuce and hold the tomato.

BEST US Cadence - With Lyrics!

[spazyjosh]

Surprised No One has put this one up yet.

One by one we loaded our guns on the mountain all day and all through the night hey hey
Two by two the commies came through on the mountain all day and all through the night hey hey
Three by Three we shot at their knees on the mountain all day and all through the night hey hey
Four by four we shot em some more on the mountain all day and all through the night hey hey
Five by five we stabbed em with knives on the mountain all day and all through the night hey hey
Six by six we beat em with sticks on the mountain all day and all through the night hey hey
Seven by seven we sent em to heaven on the mountain all day and all through the night hey hey  (Side note:some people change these next two lines and you'll see why but I prefer not to because i think it takes away from the Jodie)
Eight by eight the whiskey was great on the mountain all day and all through the night hey hey
Nine by nine the women were fine on the mountain all day and all through the night hey hey
Ten by ten we did it again on the mountain all day and all through the night hey hey


Here is another good one I haven't seen yet


When my grannie was 91 she did pt just for fun
when my grannie was 92 she did pt better than you
when my grannie was 93 she did pt beter than me
when my grannie was 94 she did pt more and more
when my grannie was 95 she did pt just to stay alive
when my grannie was 96 she did pt just for kicks
when my grannie was 97 she up and died and went to heaven
she met Saint Peter at the pearly gates
ahe said "Hey Saint Peter I hope I aint late"
Saint Peter smiled at her with a big ol' grin
said get down grannie abd knock out ten
she knocked out ten and then ten more
and dedicated them to the U.S Air force

No one has posted the first one because I don't really think it has a place in CAP. I've sang some raunchy cadences in my time but nah that one ain't good for here.

Ha. That's how I remember it too!
