Oh, I get that lonesome feeling
When I hear those engines whine,
Those 29's are breaking up
That old gang of mine.

There goes Jack, there goes Bill
Down over Tokyo.
We all hope it's home we go
How soon we do not know.

A goddamned Zeke rammed old Pete,
We wept to see him go,
Heavy flak riddled Jack,
He couldn't make Iwo.

Oh they say it's thirty missions
But it's more like twenty-nine,
Those 29's are breaking up
That old gang of mine.

(Sung to the tune of "Those Wedding Bells Are Breaking Up That Old Gang of Mine")

Lordy, lordy, listen to me
While I tell of the battle of Kunu-ri
We're buggin' out, we're movin' on,
To old Pusan

The 2nd Division sat on a hill
Watching old Joe Chink get set for the kill
We're buggin' out, we're movin' on,
To old Pusan

There's a T-34 coming down the track
With a burp gunning Goonie on its back
We're buggin' out, we're movin' on,
To old Pusan

When the mortars started falling round the CP tent
Everybody wondered where the high brass went We're buggin' out, we're movin' on,
Tto old Pusan

(Sung to the tune of "We're Movin' On")
