Marching & Running Cadences

[Echo_Four_Bravo]

Ok, people are always telling poolees to do a search before they ask a question. I understand that poolees aren't always going to do the work for an answer they need, and that doesn't bother me like it does some people. But p8ntballsnipr1, I am copying and pasting this from a post I made on this thread years ago. Its on page 1 of this thread.


Burn the town and kill the people
Throw some napalm in the square
Do it on a Sunday morning
While the people are at prayer
Throw some candy in the school yard
Watch the kiddies gather 'round
Slap a mag in your M-16
And mow those little f#*$&#s down

Just change M-16 to M-4 if you want it to match exactly.

here's some more for y'all

You can keep your Army Khaki.
You can keep your Navy Blue.
I have the worlds best fighting man,
to introduce to you.

His uniform is different,
The best you've ever seen.
The Germans call him Devil Dog,
His real name is Marine.
He was born on Parris Island,
The place where God forgot.
The sand is 18 inches deep,
The sun is blazing hot.
And everyday he'll wake up,
Before the rising sun.
He'll run a hundred miles or more,
Before the day is done.
He's deadly with a rifle,
A bayonet made of steel.
He's took the Devils calling card,
He's mastered how to kill.
And when he gets to heaven,
St. Peter he will tell.
One more Marine reporting Sir,
I've served my time in hell.
So listen all you young girls,
To what I have to say.
Go out and find a young marine,
To love you everyday. He'll hug you and he'll kiss you,
And treat you like a queen.
There is no better fighting man,
Than a UNITED STATES MARINE!!!

My Mama can't you see?
What this Corps has done to me

Put me in a barber chair
Snip snap and I had no hair
And if I die in the combat zone
Box me up and ship me home
Put me in a set of dress blues
Comb my hair and shine my shoes
Pin my medals upon my chest
Tell my Mama I did my best My Mama don't you cry
Marine Corps motto is "Do or Die!"

Mission Top Secret, destination unknown,
We don't know if we're ever coming home.

Stand up buckle up and shuffle to the door,
Jump right out and shout "Marine Corps!"
If my shoot don't open wide,
I've got a reserve by my side.
If that one should fail me too,
Look out ground I'm coming through.
Hookin and a jabbin,
Slashin and a stabbin.
If I die in a combat zone,
Box me up and ship me home. Pin my medals upon my chest.
Tell my momma I've done my best.


Down in the ocean,
down in the grimy sea,

There’s a Great White Shark,
he's a lookin at me.
He said 'Hey there Marine,
I'm the King of the Sea.'
'And if you want to get by,
you gotta get through me.'
The point man laughed,
as he drew his knife. He said 'Hey there Sharky,
you must be tired of life.'

Hey there Army,
Dirt bagging Army.
Get in your tanks and follow me,
We are Marine Corps Infantry.

Hey there Air Force,
Low flying Air Force.
Get in your planes and cover me,
We are Marine Corps Infantry.
Hey there Navy,
Swabbing decks Navy,
Get in your ships and supply me.
We are Marine Corps Infantry.
Hey there Coast Guard,
Puddle Pirate Coast Guard,
Get in your boats and drive me.
We are Marine Corps Infantry. Hey MARINE CORPS,
Semper Fi, Marine Corps.
Pick up your packs and follow me.
We are all Marine Corps Infantry.

Dad don't worry, Mom don't cry,
Some brave young men are bound to die.

You knew this day would finally come,
The day that I received my gun.
The last thing that I want to say,
Is why I had to die today.
To save our country from the pain,
Of terrorists like Saddam Hussein.
I started off a boy so young,
And look at what I have become. A soldier...no not just a soldier a MARINE!!!
Orraahh!!

I don't know, but I've been told,
The Army thinks it's mighty bold.

They don't know what the Corps can do
We are proud of our history too.
Our looks and style are very smooth
But you ought to see the "Dress Blues" Shout it out and sing it loud,
I'm a U.S. Marine and I am GOD Damn proud

Here at Parris, running till I'm wet.
No one's ever drown in sweat!
Running faster, Running long,
getting tougher, getting strong!

Marine Corps...PT!
Running!
OORAH!
1 mile 2 mile 3 mile 4!
Tell my mom I'm ready for war!
Here at Parris, they can be mean.
But I can take it, I'm a MARINE! Marine Corps...PT
Running!
OOORAH!


Semper Fi y'all!

[Marine84]

We would be running in formation and you know how they make you sing a cadence while you're running...............I can't remember the whole thing but one verse went:

Mama and Poppa were lying in the bed
Poppa rolled over and this is what he said
Give me some..............PT
Good for you...............good for me

"Hi-dee, hi-dee, Christ almighty, who the f*ck are we? Zim zam, godd@mn, Marine Corps infantry!"

Great site, Jim Nelson showed me it not long ago. Features some of the cadences you guys posted(mp3s), along with with cadences from other branches.

[GrnnBld4Lf]

I'm new at this but try this one out...

Thunder, lighting, drizzle, and rain nothing but PT on my brain-
Pull ups, sit ups, three mile run-These are the things that we do for fun-
One fist of lightning the other of steele-If the left one don't get you then
the other one will...
Cuz some poeple say Marines are made of mud-Marines are made of nothin but muscle and blood...

I told him lean and mean and green,
A fightin to keep me country free;
That is what I wanna be,
US Marine Corps Infantry;
HO OH OH OH

I know this isn't a cadence buuuuuut...

While we were doing pull ups at our Poolee Function, our recruiters had this CD playing with cadences and stuff..

There was one that just got stuck in my head, It was extremely catchy.

"Don't let.. Recruit Training fool ya.."

That's all I remember.

It was awesome though. Do any of you know which one i'm talking about?

Yeah, I'm very specific huh. Ha.

[Echo_Four_Bravo]

I would assume that is the cadence we normally sang as Don't let the green grass fool ya. It is a more difficult one to type, as the platoon doesn't simply repeat what is said, but has their own words to say.

Tarzan and Jane were swingin' from a vine,
Sippin' from a bottle of vodka double wine.
Jane missed the vine and down she fell,
When she hit the ground she let out a yell,
Ai-e-ai
mmm mmm
feels good
Ai-e-ai
mmm mmm
real good
Tarzan and Cheetah were swingin' from a vine,
Sippin' from a bottle of vodka double wine.
Cheetah missed the vine and then he fell,
when he hit the ground he gave a little yell,
Ai-e-ai
mmm mmm
feels good
Ai-e-ai
mmm mmm
real good
