lyrics

G
We are, we are, we are, we are, the ENGINEER'S
C G
we can, we can, we can, we can, demolish forty beers
G Bm Em
Drink up, drink up, drink up, drink up and come along with us
Am D G G
cuz we don’t give a damn, for any Old Man, who don’t give a damn about us - Hey

Verses:

A tanker and an ENGINEER once found a gallon can
Said the tanker to the ENGINEER "Out drink me if you can!"
The tanker took three drinks and died, his face was turning green.
But the ENGINEER kept drinking, it was only gasoline.

My father was a miner on the upper Malamute,
My mother was a hostess in a house of ill repute.
When I was only sixteen years, she shouted loud and clear
Get out of the house, become a man, and join the ENGINEERS!

Solo

The Air Force and the Navy came to town to have some fun
Down to the taverns where the fiery liquors run
But all they found was broken glass, the Engineers had come
And traded junk filled demo bags for gallon kegs of rum

We plan and guard your barriers, and we build your bunkers too,
And each and every war we prove what the ENGINEERS can do.
For in the thick of every fight, the cry has been for years
Come clear the pass, and save our ass, you Combat ENGINEERS.
