Lyrics

[Verse 1]
They do their best, do what they can
They get them ready for Vietnam
From Old Hanoi to East Berlin
Commando involved again
They do their best, do what they can
They get them ready for Vietnam
[Verse 2]
(First rule is) The love of Germany
(Second rule is) Be nice to Mommy
(Third rule is) Don't talk to commies
(Fourth rule is) Eat kosher salamis
[Verse 3]
They do their best, do what they can
They get them ready for Vietnam
From Old Hanoi to East Berlin
Commando involved again
They do their best, do what they can
They get them ready for Vietnam
[Verse 4]
(First rule is) The love of Germany
(Second rule is) Be nice to Mommy
(Third rule is) Don't talk to commies
(Fourth rule is) Eat kosher salamis
