Current song lyrics
We met as soul mates on Parris Island<br />We left as inmates from an asylum<br />And we were sharp as sharp as knives<br />And we were so gung ho to lay down our lives<br /><br />We came in spastic like tameless horses<br />We left in plastic as numbered corpses<br />And we learned fast to travel light<br />Our arms were heavy but our bellies were tight<br /><br />We had no home front we had no soft soap<br />They sent us Playboy they gave us Bob Hope<br />We dug in deep and shot on sight<br />And prayed to Jesus Christ with all of our might<br /><br />We had no cameras to shoot the landscape<br />We passed the hash pipe and played our Doors tapes<br />And it was dark so dark at night<br />And we held on to each other like brother to brother<br />We promised our mothers we'd write<br /><br />And we would all go down together<br />We said we'd all go down together<br />Yes we would all go down together<br /><br />Remember Charlie remember Baker<br />They left their childhood on every acre<br />And who was wrong and who was right<br />It didn't matter in the thick of the fight<br /><br />We held the day in the palm of our hand<br />They ruled the nights and the nights<br />Seemed to last as long as six weeks<br /><br />On Parris Island<br />We held the coastline they held the highlands<br />And they were sharp as sharp as knives<br />They heard the hum of our motors<br />They counted the rotors<br />And waited for us to arrive<br /><br />And we would all go down together<br />We said we'd all go down together<br />Yes we would all go down together
