Searching for the Drop Zone

[tune of "I've Been Working on the Railroad"]


    I've been searching for the Drop Zone
    All the live long day;
    I've been searching for the Drop Zone
    Fifteen miles away.

    Can't you see the Wind Drift Indicator
    Floating down below?
    Can't you hear the jumpmaster shouting:
    "Which way you think you should go?"

    DZSO put up a flare, put up a flare –
    Won't somebody put up a flare?!
    And light my way back home.

    I've been dangling under this canopy
    All the live long day;
    I've been steering this ol' canopy
    Just to pass the time away.

    Can't you see the spotting smoke
    Drifting over the dew?
    Can't you hear the jumpmaster crying:
    "What the hell are we going to do?!"

    DZSO put up a flare, put up a flare –
    Won't somebody put up a flare?!
    And light my way back home.
