The Darkwind Dirge
Based on a Rally Track Deathrace
(Sung to the tune of "Glory, Glory Hallelujah!")
Listen to it here:
Blood on the Risers

This is a song taken from the US ARMY Airborne. They sing it in reverence for fallen comrades and to "get the juices flowing" right before leaping from a perfectly good aircraft!

GO AIRBORNE!.......FIGHTERS...STRAIGHT TO THE GROUND!!


The rookie driver stood there shaking, palms dripping so with sweat
They strapped him in, made sure the belts were crossed across his chest
He pulled the helmet tightly down, and swore at all the rest!
And he aint gonna drive no more!

(chorus)
Gory, Gory that's a helluva way to die (X3)
And he Aint gonna drive no more!

He pushed the pedal to the floor, as the starting light went green
A prayer he whispered to himself, "My gunner eyes, be keen!"
The screeching tires, the billowing smoke, the engines throaty scream
And he aint gonna drive no more!

(chorus)
Gory, Gory that's a helluva way to die (X3)
And he Aint gonna drive no more!

The first turn came up quickly, other drivers bumping him
His place was third as they headed for the very tight hairpin
He stomped his brake, turned hard left, kicking his ass into a spin
And he aint gonna drive no more!

(chorus)
Gory, Gory that's a helluva way to die (X3)
And he Aint gonna drive no more!

He mashed the accelerator, denting the floorboards
The driver on his right pushed back, scratching his right door
He cleared the turn in second place, but still he wanted more
And he aint gonna drive no more!

(chorus)
Gory, Gory that's a helluva way to die (X3)
And he Aint gonna drive no more!

He turned onto the straight, "Weapons Clear" then had been called
He looked into the rearview and a tightness gripped his balls
There were 20 odd machineguns looking to paint him on the wall
And he aint gonna drive no more!

(chorus)
Gory, Gory that's a helluva way to die (X3)
And he Aint gonna drive no more!

He made it to the canyon turn without a bullet fired
The wheel becoming slippery, his grip becoming tired.
If only he could finish this without becoming scarred
And he aint gonna drive no more

(chorus)
Gory, Gory that's a helluva way to die (X3)
And he Aint gonna drive no more!

Before his thought could clear the bullets were wizzing past his head
He slowed up for the tight right turn, beyond the cliff ahead
And as he turned it to the right he thought he tasted lead
And he aint gonna drive no more

(chorus)
Gory, Gory that's a helluva way to die (X3)
And he Aint gonna drive no more!

(Sung solemnly and slowly)

They hosed him from the drivers seat and his brains from the dashboard.
The gore that was him rested upon the cold, wet concrete floor
The clean-up crew pleased with the job, "good thing it aint a Ford!"
And he aint gonna drive no more!

(chorus)
Gory, Gory that's a helluva way to die (X3)
AND HE AINT GONNA DRIVE NO MORE!

As I said.....I don't have a voice for singing........ And I don't "do" Rap... I'm too old to even LIKE Rap!

I'd love it if someone could come up with something for this song!....
Any takers?

There might even be a DW cash reward for the best one if more than one are submitted!

Hmm. Very nice song but too long. I came up with a shorter song called Deathrace of Cambreadth based off Heather Alexander's March of Cambreadth. www.heatherlands.com

Deathrace of Cambreadth

Machineguns flash, rockets sing
Shattered armors' piercing ring
Motors roar around the field
Race those drivers til they yield
Midnight oil, a tyres blown
Fight to make this track your own
Sound the horn and let rounds fly
How many of them can we make die?

Follow others as you're told
Make thier pirate blood run cold
Scout til you die or drop
A force like ours is hard to stop
Close your mind to stress and pain
Drive til you're no longer sane
Let not one damn car pass by
How many of them can we make die?

Guard your driver and cargo well
Send these pirates back to hell
We'll show them the rolling war
and they wont come here anymore
Use your skills and use your head
Fight til everyone is dead
Raise your flag up to the sky
How many of them can we make die?

Event has started, time has come
Move your wheels to the barking guns
We'll win the race and pay the toll
We'll drive as one in heart and soul
Midnight oil, a tyres blown
Fight to make this track your own
Sound the horn and let rounds fly
How many of them can we make die?

Repeat first verse.

Yes Bastiel, just click on the "Blood on the Risers" underlined link in the first post here and it will take you to the original song.

"Gory, Gory that's a helluva way to die!"

At morning assembly Robert 'Chief' Price leads Bastille gang into the second verse "He pushed the pedal to the floor...", while Dan 'Fatal' Finley beats a cannon shell with a stick to keep the rabble in time.
Ruben 'Rain Man' Mickle has a habbit of getting a little too excited after the 1st chorus and finishes the whole song repeating the words "Gory, Gory, gory, gory-gory, gory, gore!" to the tune.
Although not tradition none of the lads seemed to mind, infact it fired them up all the more. Price didn't seem to mind either for despite the noise, his pocket was growing ever thicker.

ooc I don't think ya gunna here any harmonies like the cadet club from my mob. Thats quite a performance

IT's.... Reveille..... The "wake up!" bugle call.

The second verse is this one...

He mashed the accelerator, denting the floorboards
The driver on his right pushed back, scratching his right door
He cleared the turn in second place, but still he wanted more
And he aint gonna drive no more!

etc....etc..

OOC:
Thanks for looking up the Anthem! ;)
I wish more would! :(
