Our Jodies

Squadron 10
Squadron 10 in and Squadron 10 out
Squadron 9 is running all about
If I had a squadron like yours
I’d go home and do my chores

Squadron 10 is here then marches over there
Squadron 9 is scattered everywhere
Squadron 9 now don't feel blue
Bo Peep had that problem too

Squadron 10 is setting the pace
Squadron 9 better do about face
If we had a low I.Q.
Then we'd be failures just like you!

Squadron 10 here and squadron 10 there
Squadron 9 failing everywhere
Squadron 9 now don't be blue,
Face it, we're just better than you

Epic Fail
F - Fatigues wrinkled
A - And your boots have grime
I - Is that what you
L - Look like all the time

E - P - I - C
F - A - I - L
Beasts, you fail! Epic Fail!

Or, for a meaner version

F - Fainthearted
A - Always backing down
I - Its so clear you are
L - Losers all around

break it down and keep it tight.
Who are we?

You left your left, your left your right, your righty left

Encampment (sing to the tune of The Battle Hymn of the Republic)
I was just an airman basic when April rolled around
Our cadet commander stood up and his voice, it did resound
As he spoke about encampment his face lost its us'al frown,
And he told me I should go - Hoorah!
I was learning, learning 'bout encampment,
Learning, learning 'bout encampment,
Learning, learning 'bout encampment,
And he told me I should go - Hoorah!

It was May and our first sergeant passed out CAP Form 31,
Watched me fill it out, then had commander sign when I was done,
I was nervous but he told me not to worry, It'd be fun
I had no choice but to go - Hoorah!
I was applying, applying for encampment,
Applying, applying for encampment,
Applying, applying for encampment,
I had no choice but to go - Hoorah!

I recieved the packing list, it must have been a mile long!
To make basics carry all this stuff, I tell you, its just wrong.
When I finished, could't lift my bags, I wasn't quite that strong.
I had to call King Kong - Hoorah!
I was packing, packing for encampment,
Packing, packing for encampment,
Packing, packing for encampment,
I had to call King Kong - Hoorah!

I beacme an airman first class during the first week of June.
I'd been memorizing CAP facts, I was crazy as a loon,
Then the fatal day arrived and I was off to Camp LeJeune.
It was finally time to go - Hoorah!
I was driving, driving towards encampment,
Driving, driving towards encampment,
Driving, driving towards encampment,
It was finally time to go - Hoorah!

I arrived and there were red hats swarming all about the place,
Found my flight and read my OI, got 1st Sergeant on my case,
Spent the 'ntire day just marching, must have circled the whole base.
Oh, what made me want to go - Hoorah!
I am marching, marching at encampment,
Marching, marching at encampment,
Marching, marching at encampment,
Oh, what made me want to go - Hoorah!

When this week of torture passes and I'be graduated camp,
No more singing stupid jodies, no more list'ning to boots stamp,
No more doing squadron PT till my shirt's more soaked than damp,
I'll be glad that I did go - Hoorah!
When I'm remembering, remembering encampment,
Remembering, remembering encampment,
Remembering, remembering encampment,
I'll be glad that I did go - Hoorah!

Next year when the month of April fin'lly comes around again,
I'll tell basics of encampment, I'll say, "Listen up, airmen:
"You will go as little children, you'll return courageous men!"
I'll expect them all to go - Hoorah!
I 'll be supporting, supporting encampment,
Supporting, supporting encampment,
Supporting, supporting encampment,
I'll expect them all to go - Hoorah!

Squadron Jody
In enterprise of squadron kind,
When they find drilling taxing,
Squadron nine lies in the grass,
They find it more relaxing,
But when the Kier walks up the hill,
They form up and begin to drill.
They're motivated, dedicated,
They are Squadron nine!

During the morning PFT
Their efforts are half-hearted.
The ninth decides to wrap it up
While we're just getting started.
They strive to keep it short and sweet
While we get buff, they wish for beef
They're motivated, dedicated,
They are Squadron nine!

When to evade the blistering heat
Indoors they all proceed,
No wimpy cadet in this squad
Will sweat a single bead.
They fear the sun will turn them red
And so they hide to shade their heads.
They're motivated, dedicated,
They are Squadron nine!

Cadence
Hip hop clumpety clomp
Let me hear your left foot stomp!
That's an outstanding sound,
Four more times now stomp the ground!

Tip tap clippety clap
Let me hear your fingers snap!
That sounded mighty fine
Let me hear it four more times!

Hi hey yippy-ki-yay
Tell me, what's our squadron name

Who are we?
(Diamondbacks!)
Who are we?
(Diamondbacks!)
Hoorah!

I Got the Drive

Here I am before the sun
Going on a mile run

Stretchin', yawnin', comin' alive
I can do it, I got the drive

Starting out slow keeping the pace
Morning breeze blowin in my face

Passing others watching me
Wonder what it is they see

Do they see my grief and pain
They must think I'm insane

Or do they see my will and pride
Ain't no doubt I got the drive

Breath deep, sound off, let em know
We're on the move and rarin' to go

First Shirt smiling as we pass by
We're gonna show him we got the drive

Picking up the pace and heading out
For blocks around you can hear us shout

Come run with us if you'd like to try
One things for sure we got the drive

If you want to keep pace with me
There's one thing you've got to see

Drive's important and will is too
Makes me best at what I do

C-130
C-130 rollin' down the strip
Det 320 gonna take a little trip
Mission Top Secret, destination unknown
We don't know if we're ever coming home
When my plane gets up so high
Airborne troopers gonna dance in the sky
Stand up, hook up, shuffle to the door
Jump right out and count to four
If my shute don't open wide
I got another one by my side
If that one should fail me too
Look out below, I'm a-coming through
If I die in a combat zone
Box me up and ship me home
Pin my ribbons upon my chest
Tell my mom I did my best

EVERYWHERE WE GO
Everywhere we go
People want to know
Who we are
So we tell them
We are the Tenth
Proud, Proud Tenth
Flt Cdr sings next line; flight doesn’t repeat.
“Our hats are straight, our gig line’s looking great, our shoes are shined, our
racks could bounce a dime. Who are we?”
Flight answers: Diamondbacks!
Flt Cdr: Who are we?
Flight: Diamondbacks!
All: Squadron Ten Diamondbacks, Hoorah!

AS WE MARCH
As we march both near and far
Guess you’re wondering who we are
We’re as proud as we could be
We’re the best of the CAP
We’re Diamondbacks, We’re Number One
We know our job, We get it done
Pride and teamwork, that’s our goal
We’re the Civil Air Patrol
As we march, we march with pride
And teamwork’s marching at our side
We’re working hard so we can be
The greatest squadron in the CAP

YOUR LEFT, RIGHT, LEFT
Your left, right, le-eft
Your left, right, le-eft
We’re motivated
We’re outstanding
We’re proud to be cadets now
The very, very best now
Your left, right, le-eft
Your left, right, le-eft
Your left, your right, now pick up the step, your left, your right, your le-eh-eft

Look
Look who’s marching beside me
The greatest flight in the CAP
I’m as proud as I could be
Everybody envies me
I don’t know, but I’ve been told
Squadron 10 is good as gold
I don’t know, but it’s been stated
Squadron 10 is motivated
I don't know, but it could be
10th's the best in CAP
