I Work

This one is called by only one person.
The flight will clap in step and repeat, "I work" after
each line, until the end

I woke up about a quarter to two [Flight: "I work"]
Drill Sargeant said shine your shoes ["I work" ...]

I woke up about a quarter to three
Drill Sergeant brings in misery

I woke up about a quarter to four
Drill Sergeant says scrub the floor

I woke up about a quarter to five
Senior Drill wasn't taking no jive

I woke up about a quarter to six
First Sergeant was getting his kicks

I woke up about a quarter to seven
You cadets are going to heaven

I woke up about a quarter to eight
School teacher said don't be late.

Pick up my M-16
I lock and load a magazine

Put on my BDU shirt
Now I'm ready to go to work

All: I work, work work
I work, work, work work

F-15 Roaring Down the Strip

F-15 roaring down the strip
Air Force jockey on a one way trip

Mission: Top Secret; Destination: Unkown
Don't even know if he's ever coming home

Scorching the ground at the speed of sound
Droppin' that napalm all around

Rippin' through the sky at Mach 2.2
Afterburner, I'm counting on you

If that bogie screws with me
He's gonna rejoin his infantry

America counts upon our crew
Friendly skies are the Air Force blue

Hey, Army

Hey, Army
Can you hear me?

Pick up your tanks and follow me
We are the best that you will see

Hey, Navy
Can you hear me?
Pick up your ships and follow me
We are the best that you will see

Hey, Marine Corps
Can you hear me?
Pick up your guns and follow me
We are the best that you will see

Hey, Air Force
Can you hear me?
Pick up your jets and follow me
We are the best in J Rotsy

Recruiter

Recruiter, 'cruiter came to me
Asked me what I want to be

Be mean, lean and tall
Be an officer most of all

Signed the 'cruiters life contract
And he pat me on the back

'Cruiter smiled and said to me
Lackland Air Force Base then it will be

Sky was cold and ground was wet
When they put me on the jet

Put us on a big blue bus
Made no hassle made no fuss

Mamma mamma can't you see
What the Air Force does for me
Cut my hair and shined me shoes
Dressed me up in these Air Force Blues

They Say That in the Air Force

They say that in the Air Force, the chicken's mighty fine
One jumped off the table and started marking time

Refrain:
Oh, Lord I wanna go
But they won't let me go
(group ends this line with home, stretched out over 8 paces, and
a "Hey" on the right foot to end the refrain)

They say that in the Air Force, the pay is mighty fine
They give you a hundred dollars and take back ninety-nine

They say that in the Air Force, the coffee's mighty fine
It looks like muddy water, and tastes like turpentine

They say that in the Air Force, the biscuits are mighty fine
One rolled off the table and killed a friend of mine

They say that in the Air Force, the meat is mighty fine
Last night we had ten puppies, this morning only nine

They say that in the Air Force, the shoes are mighty fine
You ask for size eleven, they give you size nine

They say that in the Air Force, the pancakes are mighty fine
You can try to chew them, but you're only wasting time

They say that in the Air Force, the bed's are mighty fine
But how the heck would I know, I've never slept in mine

They say that in the Air Force, the mail is so great
Today I got a letter dated 1948

They say that in the Air Force, the hours are just right
Start early in the morning and work on through the night

They say that in the Air Force, the buses are mighty fine
One went round the corner, and left three wheels behind

They say that in the Air Force, the coffee's mighty fine
It's good for cuts and bruises and tastes like iodine

They say that in the Air Force, the toilets are mighty fine
You flush them up at seven, they come back up at nine.

They say that in the Air Force, the tents are waterproof
You wake up in the morning and you're floating on the roof.

Irene

Irene, Irene, she's one of the best,
And every night I give her the test,

The moon was high, the lights were dim,
And there she stood all slick and slim,

I warmed her up the best that I could,

And when I got in her i knew she was good,

I rolled her over on her side,

And on her back I also tried,

Irene, Irene, she's the best in the land,

The best F-15 in the fighting command.

The Air Force Colors

The Air Force Colors

The color is red
To show the world
The blood we shed

The Air Force Colors
The color is white
To show the world
That we can fight

The Air Force Colors
The color is blue
To show the world
That we are true

The Air Force Colors
Red, White, and Blue
To show the world
That we'd die for you
