| Fighting soldiers from the sky
|
| Fearless men who jump and die
|
| Men who mean just what they say
|
| The brave men of the Green Beret.
|
| Chorus:
|
| Silver wings upon their chest
|
| These are men, America’s best
|
| One hundred men we’ll test today
|
| But only three win the Green Beret.
|
| Trained to live, off nature’s land
|
| Trained in combat, hand to hand
|
| Men who fight by night and day
|
| Courage deep from the Green Beret.
|
| Chorus:
|
| Silver wings upon their chest
|
| These are men, America’s best
|
| One hundred men we’ll test today
|
| But only three win the Green Beret.
|
| Delta Force and CIA
|
| Marines and SOCOM clear the way
|
| Covert missions now in play
|
| Special OPS like the Green Beret.
|
| Chorus:
|
| Silver wings upon their chest
|
| These are men, America’s best
|
| One hundred men we’ll test today
|
| But only three win the Green Beret.
|
| While back at home a young wife waits
|
| Her Green Beret has met his fate
|
| He has died for those oppressed
|
| Leaving her this last request.
|
| Put silver wings on my son’s chest
|
| Make him one of America’s best
|
| He’ll be a man they’ll test one day
|
| So have him win the Green Beret
|
| Have him win the Green Beret.
|
| Chorus:
|
| Silver wings upon their chest
|
| These are men, America’s best
|
| One hundred men we’ll test today
|
| But only three win the Green Beret… |
