Blood on the Risers (Gory Gory What a Helluva Way to Die) Vince Speranza

[Verse 1]
There was blood upon the risers, there were brains upon the chute
Intestines were a-dangling from his paratroopers suit
He was a mess, they picked him up, and poured him from his boots
And he ain't gonna jump no more

[Chorus]
Gory, gory, what a hellu'va way to die
Gory, gory, what a hellu'va way to die
Gory, gory, what a hellu'va way to die
He ain't gonna jump no more!

[Verse 2]
Now the letter they sent home, went to his wife and baby son
Madam we regret to say, your troopers life is done
But hold your head up high, his name is written in the sky
He ain't gonna jump no more

[Chorus]
Gory, gory, what a hellu'va way to die
Gory, gory, what a hellu'va way to die
Gory, gory, what a hellu'va way to die
He ain't gonna jump no more

[Verse 3]
Now the baby son grew up and said, "A troopers life for me"
A jumper like my daddy was, is all I want to be
I only hope that I can jump just half as good as he
He ain't gonna jump no more
