We Able Few

By Donny Shankle
 

Onward strong weightlifters it is time for battle

Now is not the time for mindless prattle

The training is done it is time to fight

Victory or death is our motto this night

On the eve of your marching to the bar

Sleep well and be ready to light the cigar

Suit up your stars and stripes in front the mirror

Its time to show them you are a mighty killer

Many moons have passed since we prepared on day one

All matters not now whats done is done

Its time to lean back and look real good

So damn good we should be in Hollywood

The world knows not whats coming their way

Soon they will learn how Americans play

With a bayonet in our teeth if me must

And a war face which turns their knees to dust

Onward strong weightlifters it is time for battle

I can hear the enemies teeth begin to rattle

Damn we look sexy in our red, white, and blue

May God be with us we able few
