HAVE
YOU HEARD Have you heard, of the
one-seventy-third, Air-borne-Brigade Have you heard, of the
one-seventy-third, Air-borne-Brigade
How they jumped on the enemy like a
flacon from the blue A more gallant fighting soldier
America never knew
Have you heard, of the
one-seventy-third, Air-borne-Brigade
They fought fearlessly hand to hand
in the Central Highlands How their blood has stained the sands
in the hills of Vietnam
Have you heard, of the
one-seventy-third, Air-borne-Brigade
How with their rifles cradled they
descend from the Sky As their ripcord snapped their
parachute they screamed their battle cry
Have you heard, of the
one-seventy-third, Air-borne-Brigade
How they won a gallant victory on
hill eight seven five How they learned the price of freedom
for 280 died
Have you heard, of the
one-seventy-third, Air-borne-Brigade
Now you heard, of the one-seventy-third, Air-borne-Brigade |
