A chicken jumped of the table and started marking time

Oh lord I wanna go

Oh lord I wanna go hoo-hoo-hoooome Eh!

They say that in the Army the biscuits are mighty fine

One rolled of the table and killed a friend of mine

I left my hoooome

To join the JROTC 

I left my hooome

To join the JROTC 

The day I left

My mamma criiied

She thought that I 

Would surely die

I left my wiiife

Crying at the door

She knew that I

Would die at war

I left my son

Playing in the yard

Seeing daddy leave

Made em cry so hard

Oowie owieee

Oowie owieee

Oowie owiee

Down by the river

We took a little walk

Ran into Pueblo

We had a little talk

‘We pushed em’    -hey-

‘We shoved em’   -hey-

We threw em in the river

And laughed as they drowned

We don’t need no Pueblo hangin around

-Heyyyy, don’t be a fool-   ‘Hey hey’

-Somebody said we we number two- ‘They lied’

-We’re number o-oone-

“Go Tigers!!”

Down by the river

We took a little walk

Ran into The Cyclones

We had a little talk

‘We pushed em’    -hey-

‘We shoved em’   -hey-

We threw em in the river

And laughed as they drowned

We don’t need no Cyclones hangin around

-Heyyyy, don’t be a fool-   ‘Hey hey’

-Somebody said we we number two- ‘They lied’

-We’re number o-oone-

“Go Tigers!!”

Everywhere we go - oh

People wanna know - oh

Who we are

Where we come from

So we tell them

We are The Tigers

Mighty Mighty Tigers

Rough n tough Tigers

Straight Shooting Tiger

Better than Pueblo

Amature Pueblo 

Better than the Cyclones

Comunist Cyclones

We are The Tigers

Mighty Mighty Tigers

Standing tall and looking good

Oughta march in hollywood

Let’em blow let’em blow

Let the four winds blow

Let’em blow from east to west 

Tiger Battalion is the best

Hold your head and hold it high

Tiger Battalion is marching by

Look to your left and what do you see

A perfect line along side me

Dress it right and cover down

Forty inches all around 

Nine to the front and six to the rear

That's the way we do it here

Here we go again

Same old stuff again

Marching Down the avenue

Six more weeks and we’ll be through

I'll be glad and so will you
