Songs

Infantry Song

We are the bedrock of our army
One thing to keep our people free
Committed to the independence of our nation
We are the men from the infantry

There will never be a mountain too high
Or a route too rough for us
We are about to rule the day and the darkest night
We will never rest till the wrong is right

From the land, air and sea
We will strike our enemies
They have called us the queen of the battlefield

We are brothers in arms
We are brothers proud to be
We are the first, the one and only infantry

We are a special band of soldiers
Raised to guard our nation's shores
We based our lives upon a set of 8 values
To defend our nation's cause

And when our country says she needs us
We are always there by her side
We will protect the lives of every Singaporean
For Singapore we will give our lives!

BMT Roar

We are the warriors of the SAF
Spirit of the bayonet in our blood
Brothers in arms, comrades for life
Against all odds, we will strive.
BMT will thrash you AR, crush you AR
BMT will beat you AR, toughen you AR

Roar!

Excel! Through basics!
Excel! Through basics!

Training To Be Soldiers

Training to be soldiers
Fight for our land
Once in our lives
Two years of our time

Have you ever wondered?
Why must we serve?
Because we love our land
And we want it to be free to be free yeah!

Looking all around us
People everywhere
Children having fun
While we are holding guns

Stand up
Be on your guard
Come on everybody
Do your part
Come on every soldier
Soul and heart
Do it for our nation
Do it for our Singapore

And the flag goes up
In the battalion square

And the parachutes bloom
Like flowers in the sky

Cold Wind

In the early morning march
With a fieldback on my back
And an aching in my heart
And my body full of sweat

I'm a long long way from home
And I miss my mama so

In the early morning march
When the cold wind blows
When the cold wind blows
When the cold wind blows
When the cold wind blows

I know I know
You have to go
So hurry back home
I miss you so

C-130

C130 rolling down the street
Viper warriors took a little trip
Stand up, hook it up, shuffle to the door
Jump right out by the count of four

Oh wa eh ya
Left right eh ya
Oh wa eh ya
Viper eh ya

If my shoot doesn’t open wide
I got a spare one by my side
If that one doesn’t open too
Oh hard ground I am coming for you

If I land in the Russian Front
Bury me with a Russian gun
If I land in the Vietnam War
Send me back to Singapore

If I land in Sentosa,
Send me back by cable car
If I land in the Old Folk’s Home
Pack me up and send me home

Tell my mom I’ve done my best
Now its time for me to rest
Tell my girl I’ve done my best
Silver wings upon my chest.

I Ask My Girl

I ask my girl
To take a Walk
To take a Walk
Down Orchard Road
Bypass Mandarin
To Centrepoint
Where we had lunch
At MacDonalds'

We had fillet
And an apple pie
We shared a cup
Of Lemon Lime
I held her hands (Holding her hands)
Look into her eyes
I asked her to
Be my valentine (Be my future wife)

There was one night
There was no light
There was no light
So we used torchlight
Torchlight no light
So we used star light
Star light not bright
So we used Purple Light

Famous in BMT
Come from a very special company

Fight for our victory
Fight with a spirit never seen before

We like it here we like it here
We found ourselves a home
A home, a home sweet home
