Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Fighting soldiers from the sky
Fearless men who jump and die
Men who mean just what they say
The brave men of the Green Beret
[Verse 2]
Silver wings upon their chest
These are men, America's best
One hundred men will test today
But only three win the Green Beret
[Verse 3]
Trained to live off nature's land
Trained in combat, hand-to-hand
Men who fight by night and day
Courage peak from the Green Beret
[Verse 4]
Silver wings upon their chest
These are men, America's best
One hundred men will test today
But only three win the Green Beret
[Verse 5]
Back at home a young wife waits
Her Green Beret has met his fate
He has died for those oppressed
Leaving her his last request
[Verse 6]
Put silver wings on my son's chest
Make him one of America's best
He'll be a man they'll test one day
Have him win the Green Beret
