The 82nd served at the Battle of the Bulge
When Hitler tried to attack through the Arden
It was his last gamble in the west
PFC Martin said to a Sergeant
In a retreating tank destroyer
Put your vehicle behind me sir
I am the 82nd Airborne
And this is as far as those jerks are going
Defeat the enemy
Preserve the peace
And freedom for our nation
Yeah
And get back home
Just get back home
To our loved ones
