Boot Camp

Boot Camp
By Paul McCann

Eyes left
Eyes right .
Quick march , up the hill .

Left right .
Keep tight .
You all know the drill .

One mile in single file .
On we go .

Soldier on with a smile Commando .

In the battlefield you’ve got to cope

Sometimes you may feel there is no hope .

Plough through mud and slide down the slope .

Then over the bridge and climb the rope .

Ambushed by who .
No time to reload .

Push through on ahead as bombs explode .

Faster now soldier .
Pick up the pace .

Yes sir .
We’re nearly there back to base .

Charge ahead
Get the lead out .
Ok .

Fall in .
Fall out .
Well done .’
That’s the way .
