Någon som kan hela den här marschsången

Recommended Posts

Hej, jag grunnar lite på en marschvisa som jag inte kan fullt ut.

 

Första versen går:

 

Our sergeant major jumped from 14.000 feet

Our sergeant major jumped from 14.000 feet

Our sergeant major jumped from 14.000 feet

And he ain´t gonna jump no more,

thats for sure!

 

Sen så är det något om att han landade på motorvägen (freeway) och att det är ett djävla sätt att dö på...

 

Är det någon som kan resten av den här visan?

Som jag har hört den går den så här:

 

The sargent was the last to jump, the first to hit the ground

The sargent was the last to jump, the first to hit the ground

The sargent was the last to jump, the first to hit the ground

And he ain't gonna jump no more.

Glory, glory, what a helluwa way to die

Glory, glory, what a helluwa way to die

Glory, glory, what a helluwa way to die

And he ain't gonna jump no more.

He jumped from 14.000 feet without a parachute

He jumped from 14.000 feet without a parachute

He jumped from 14.000 feet without a parachute

And he ain't gonna jump no more.

Glory, glory, what a helluwa way to die

Glory, glory, what a helluwa way to die

Glory, glory, what a helluwa way to die

And he ain't gonna jump no more.

 

Det finns säkert fler verser och andra varianter men detta är vad jag har hört.

Nån som kan texten till melodin som spelas i Die Hard 3 när traktorerna börjar köra ner i tunnelbanan.

 

Rätt känd march melodi, men jag skulle gärna vilja ha texten också.

 

tror det är nått med "johnny marching....."

 

EDIT:

Finns även en snapsvisa på denna melodi som går:

 

En vinking vil ha livets va´nn, hurra hurra

Det hastigt i mitt svalg försvann, hurra hurra

Till fågel till fisk, till kalv till fläsk,

När kärringen bara dricka läsk,

Då vill alla sanna vinkingar ha en besk!

 

Och när vi druckit besken slut, tragik tragik

Då bäres varje viking ut, som lik som lik

Och när vi sedan har sovit en bit

så korka vi upp skånes akvavit

Skål för alla vikingar som kom hit!

Du tänker på "When Johnny comes marching home"...Sök på det på nätet, finns massor av versioner...

Den fanns med i min en gång så stora samling amerikanska marschsånger, som tyvärr är ganska liten nu. Så här gick den varianten som jag hade...

 

Glory, glory what a hell of way to die

 

He flew a flying fortress up to eightythousend feet (3x)

And he ain’t gonna jump no more.

 

Refrein: Glory, glory what a hell of way to die (3x)

And he ain’t gonna jump no more

 

He jumped from eigtythousen feet without a parachute(3x)

And he ain’t gonna jump no more

 

The bloke who packed the parachute forgot to fix the straps (3x)

And he ain’t gonna jump no more

 

They scraped him from the runaway like a lump of strawberryjam (3x)

 

 

Edit:

Hittade filen, om någon e intresserad så mailar jag den!

He was just a rookie trooper and he surely shook with fright.

He checked off his equipment and made sure his pack was tight.

He had to sit and listen to those awful engines roar.

You ain't gonna jump no more.

 

 

 

Chorus:

Gory, gory, what a hell of way to die.

Gory, gory, what a hell of way to die.

Gory, gory, what a hell of way to die.

He ain't gonna jump no more.

 

"Is everybody happy?" cried the sergeant looking up.

Our hero feebly answered, "Yes", and then they stood him up.

He jumped into the icy blast, his static line unhooked.

And he ain't gonna jump no more.

 

He counted long, he counted loud, he waited for the shock.

He felt the wind, he felt the cold, he felt the awful drop.

The silk from his reserve spilled out and wrapped around his legs.

And he ain't gonna jump no more.

 

The risers swung around his neck, connectors cracked his dome.

Suspension lines were tied in knots around his skinny bones.

The canopy became his shroud, he hurtled to the ground.

And he ain't gonna jump no more.

 

The days he lived and loved and laughed kept running through his mind.

He thought about the girl back home, the one he left behind.

He thought about the medicos and wondered what they'd find.

And he ain't gonna jump no more.

 

The ambulance was on the spot, the jeeps were running wild.

The medics jumped and screamed with glee, rolled up their sleeves and smiled.

For it had been a week or more since last a 'chute had failed.

And he ain't gonna jump no more.

 

He hit the ground, the sound was "Splat," his blood went spurting high.

His comrades they were heard to say, "A helluva way to die."

He lay there rolling 'round in the welter of his gore.

And he ain't gonna jump no more.

 

There was blood upon the risers, there were brains upon the 'chute.

Intestines were a-dangling from his paratrooper suit.

He was a mess, they picked him up and poured him from his boots.

And he ain't gonna jump no more.
