The Bug-Out Ballad (Moving on) 
The Bug-Out Ballad (Moving on) 
Hear the patter of running feet 
It's the old First Cav in full retreat They're moving on; they'll soon be gone They're haulin' ass, not savin' gas They'll soon be gone. 
Over on that hill there's a Russian tank 
A million Chinks are on my flank I'm movin' on, I'll soon be gone With my M-1 broke, it ain't no joke I'll soon be gone. 
Million Chinks comin' through the pass 
Playin' burp-gun boogie all over my ass I'm movin' on, I'll soon be gone With my M-1 broke, it ain't no joke I'll soon be gone. 
Twenty thousand Chinks comin' through the pass 
I'm tellin' you, baby, I'm haulin' ass I'm moving on; I'll soon be gone I'm haulin' ass, not savin' gas I'll soon be gone. 
Standin' in a rice paddy up to my belly 
From then on, they called me "Smelly" I'm moving on; I'll soon be gone I'm haulin' ass, not savin' gas I'll soon be gone. 
Here's papa-san comin' down the track 
Old A-frame strapped to his back He's moving on; he'll soon be gone he's haulin' ass, not savin' gas He'll soon be gone. 
Here's mama-san comin' down the track 
Titty hangin' out, baby on her back She's moving on; she'll soon be gone From her tits to her toes, she's damn near froze She'll soon be gone. 
I sung this song for the very last time 
Gonna get Korea off my mind I'm moving on; I'll soon be gone I done my time in the s*** and slime I'm movin' on. 
From Ther Erotic Muse, Cray Collected from Cray, 1953 Note: a parody of a country classic by Hank Snow 
In Vietnam, they sang: The McNamara Line is a hundred miles long Completely surrounded by Viet Cong
 I'm movin' on etc.
