What Do You Do In The Infantry?
You march, you march, you march
What do you do when your pack
has got your back as stiff as starch?
There's many a fall in the Cavalry,
but never a fallen arch
And What Do You Do In The Infantry?
You march, you march, you march!
What Do You Do In The Infantry?
You hike, you hike, you hike.
What do you get in the Infantry?
A left and right oblique.
The son-of-a-gun in the Signal Corps
is traveling on a bike
And What Do You Do In The Infantry?
You hike, you hike, you hike!
The hard way, the hard way
Sweat 'til you get there the hard way!
What Do You Do In The Infantry?
You win, you win, you win
What do you do for Victory?
You move into Berlin.
The rest of the ARmy are riding,
riding thru a triumphal arch
And What Do You Do In The Infantry?
You march! (Two, three, four,)
March! (Two, three, four,) March!
