blood on the r**ers 美国101空降师的军歌，二战欧洲战区主题歌，原曲是一首**教赞歌，用这个曲调的歌最有名的是美国内战北方的军歌：《battle hymn of the republic》，据说是林肯生平最喜欢的歌曲。曼联队歌《glory glory man united》也是这个曲，但是词不同。《blood on the r**ers》是《兄弟连》电视剧中出现的一首军歌，当时曾在欧洲地区的盟军伞兵中广为传唱。乍听上去，这首歌节奏稳健、旋律高昂，充满战斗精神。而实际上，这首歌的歌词描写的是一名菜鸟伞兵在跳伞练习的时候，因为过度紧张，没有挂上降落伞开伞的尼龙带就纵身越出机舱，伞具失灵，最后坠落地面的过程。期间还略带讽刺地描写了他坠落时的心理活动。歌词：he was just a rookie trooper and he surely shook with fright.he checked off h** equipment and made sure h** pack was tight.he had to sit and l**ten to those awful engines roar.you ain't gonna jump no more.chorus:gory,gory,what a hell of way to die.gory,gory,what a hell of way to die.gory,gory,what a hell of way to die.he ain't gonna jump no more."** everybody happy?cried the sergeant looking up.our hero feebly answered,"yes",and then they stood him up.he jumped into the icy blast,h** static line unhooked.and he ain't gonna jump no more.he counted long,he counted loud,he waited for the shock.he felt the wind,he felt the cold,he felt the awful drop.the silk from h** reserve spilled out and wrapped around h** legs.and he ain't gonna jump no more.the r**ers swung around h** neck,connectors cracked h** dome.suspension lines were tied in knots around h** skinny bones.the canopy became h** shroud,he hurtled to the ground.and he ain't gonna jump no more.the days he lived and loved and laughed kept running through h** mind.he thought about the girl back home,the one he left behind.he thought about the medicos and wondered what they'd find.and he ain't gonna jump no more.the ambulance was on the spot,the jeeps were running wild.the medics jumped and screamed with glee,rolled up their sleeves and smiled.for it had been a week or since last a 'chute had failed.and he ain't gonna jump no more.he hit the ground,the sound was"splat,"h** blood went spurting high.h** comrades they were heard to say,"a helluva way to die."he lay there rolling 'round in the welter of h** gore.and he ain't gonna jump no more.there was blood upon the r**ers,there were brains upon the 'chute.intestines were a-dangling from h** paratrooper suit.he was a mess,they picked him up and poured him from h** boots.and he ain't gonna jump no 他仅仅是一个新伞兵，他真的在战斗中颤栗，他核对他的装备，打紧他的伞包，他不得不坐在机舱中听着烦躁的引擎咆哮。你再也不想多跳一次。复唱：盖瑞，盖瑞，**糟糕的死法；盖瑞，盖瑞，**糟糕的死法；盖瑞，盖瑞，**糟糕的死法。他再也不想多跳一次。有人高兴吗？军士长大声喊着看去，我们的英雄们微弱的回答：是！然后他们使自己站起来，跳进冰冷的疾风中，降落伞从伞钩上解脱。他再也不想多跳一次。他用长长的洪亮的声音数着，等待开伞那一刹的强大震动，他感觉到风，感觉到寒冷，感觉到可怕的下降，伞从伞包冲飞出，将他的腿缠绕。他再也不想多跳一次。伞绳缠住他的脖子，将他包裹在伞蓬中，伞绳死死的缠绕在他瘦弱的身体上，伞衣成了他的寿衣，他高速坠向地面。他再也不想多跳一次。那天他还想着生活、想着爱情，欢笑着飞奔，他想带女孩回家；他左后面一个兄弟在想军医如何能找到他。他再也不想多跳一次。脚下有了平衡，吉普在野地上飞驰，军医跳了下来，苦笑着卷起袖子；为了这个从一周前甚至更长．自从降落伞失效后。他再也不想多跳一次。他砸在地面上，传出液体飞溅的声音，鲜血从他身上高高的喷出，他的战友中有人说了声："这是个糟糕的死法！他再也不想多跳一次。鲜血粘在伞绳上，脑浆在．降落伞上，肠子挂在伞兵衣外摇晃，他是一团糟了，他的战友将他收拾起来放进了他的**里。他再也不想多跳一次。
