| The Tune: (Battle Hymn of the Republic) | |
| Lyrics: | He jumped from 20,000 feet and didn't pull the cord. He jumped from 20,000 feet and didn't pull the cord. He jumped from 20,000 feet and didn't pull the cord. And he ain't gonna jump no more. CHORUS: Glory, glory, what a heck of a way to die. Glory, glory, what a heck of a way to die. Glory, glory, what a heck of a way to die. And he aint gonna jump no more. He was last to leave the cockpit and the first to hit the ground. He was last to leave the cockpit and the first to hit the ground. He was last to leave the cockpit and the first to hit the ground. And he ain't gonna jump no more. He landed on the runway like a lump of berry jam He landed on the runway like a lump of berry jam He landed on the runway like a lump of berry jam And he aint gonna jump no more. They scraped him off the runway with a tiny silver spoon. They scraped him off the runway with a tiny silver spoon. They scraped him off the runway with a tiny silver spoon. And he ain't gonna jump no more. They sent him home to mother in a little wooden box. They sent him home to mother in a little wooden box. They sent him home to mother in a little wooden box. And he ain't gonna jump no more. She put on the mantle piece for everyone to see. She put on the mantle piece for everyone to see. She put on the mantle piece for everyone to see. And he aint gonna jump no more. She put him on the table when the Preacher came to tea. She put him on the table when the Preacher came to tea. She put him on the table when the Preacher came to tea. And he aint gonna jump no more. The Preacher spread him on some toast and said what lovely jam. The Preacher spread him on some toast and said what lovely jam. The Preacher spread him on some toast and said what lovely jam. And he aint gonna jump no more. |
