Their home is Fort Benning The land that God forgot The mud is 18 inches deep The sun is blazing hot Chorus:Airbooooooooorne Raaaaaaaangers Lead The Way So walking down the street one day I met a total stranger He asked me what I wanted to be I said an Airborne Ranger Chorus:Airbooooooooorne Raaaaaaaangers Lead The Way I'm sitting in my foxhole Sharpinning my knife Up jumped the enemy I had to take his life Chorus:Airbooooooooorne Raaaaaaaangers Lead The Way I went to wake up the Sergeant He was lying in his bed I went to turn him over I found out he was dead Chorus:Airbooooooooorne Raaaaaaaangers Lead The Way My buddies in a foxhole With a bullet in his head The medic said he's wounded But I know that he's dead Chorus:Airbooooooooorne Raaaaaaaangers Lead The Way I hear the choppers coming They're flying over head They come to get the wounded But all they find is dead Chorus:Airbooooooooorne Raaaaaaaangers Lead The Way So out in the battle field covered in blood There lies a ranger dying in the mud Chorus:Airbooooooooorne Raaaaaaaangers Lead The Way
