173rd Infantry Brigade

Up on your left foot,

down with your right,

stomp out those Charlies,

with all your might.

Airborne, oh, airborne,

where have you been?

I've been to VietNam

and back again.

Airborne, oh, airborne,

what have you seen?

I saw Charlie

and the fighting V-C.

Airborne, oh, airborne,

what have you heard?

I heard stories

of the one-seventy-third.

Airborne, oh, airborne,

up in the sky,

airborne, oh, airborne,

do right or die!
