Get, get, get on down

When I was an itty bitty boy,
My old man said to me,
“Son, one day; (drag out one for rythm)
You’re gonna join the ar-rmy.”

(chorus)
Get, get, get on down.
Get, get, get on down.
Baby boy get on down.
Get, get, get on down.

When i was a young private,
My sergeant said to me,
“Private one day;(drag out “one”)
an nco you will be.”

(chorus)
Get, get, get on down.
Get, get, get on down.
Private push the ground.
Get, get, get on down.

When i was a young sergeant,
p’toon sergeant said to me,
“Sergeant one day;(drag out “one”)
p’toon sergeant you will be.”

(chorus)
Get, get, get on down.
Get, get, get on down.
Sergeant push the ground.
Get, get, get on down.

When i was a platoon sergeant,
First Sergeant said to me,
“P’toon sergeant one day;(drag out “one”)
First sergeant you will be.”

(chorus)
Get, get, get on down.
Get, get, get on down.
P’toon Sergeant push the ground.
Get, get, get on down.

When i was a new First Sergeant,
Sergeant Major said to me,
“First Sergeant one day;(drag out “one”)
Sergeant Major you will be.”

(chorus)
Get, get, get on down.
Get, get, get on down.
First Sergeant push the ground.
Get, get, get on down.

I finally made Sergeant Major
And my BC said to me,
“Sergeant Major i need you to
Watch over my troops for me.”

(chorus)
Get, get, get on down.
Get, get, get on down.
Sergeant Major push the ground.
Get, get, get on down.

When i finally retire
I’ll remember my dad’s words to me
he said’ “son, you’ve got no idea,
how proud you’ve made me.”

(chorus)
Get, get, get on down.
Get, get, get on down.
Baby boy push the ground.
Get, get, get on down.
