I AM A GREEN JACKET AND PROUD!

To join a man that fights for pride
To know he’s a Green Jacket
The man by your side

To know that man won’t let you down
To understand it’s not all for the crown
To know he’s a family member
To know he won’t ever surrender

Yet we have to bow out
Without a shout
See our regiment take another clout

Its name may disappear
But in my heart
It will always be here

To watch our Regiment leave this town
To see our cap badge change
Still to this day I see rage

Is that so bad

“IM A GREEN JACKET DAD”
