AggieDave 6 #1 May 23, 2003 So I was bored, I wrote new words for a song and now call it the "Tandem Song." This is song to the Rawhide theme song: QuoteKeep movin', movin', movin', Though they're disapprovin', Keep them students movin', Tandems! Don't try to understand 'em, Just rope 'em, throw, and land 'em. Soon we'll be livin' high and wide. My heart's calculatin', My cold beer will be waitin', Be waitin' at the end of my flight. Move 'em on, head 'em up, Head 'em up, move 'em on, Move 'em on, head 'em up, Tandems! Head 'em out, fly 'em in, Ride 'em in, let 'em out, Cut 'em out, fly 'em in, Tandems! Keep jumpin', jumpin', jumpin', Though the Otter's overload'n, Keep them whuffo's jumpin', Tandems. Through rain and wind and weather, Hell bent for Jumpin, Wishin' the students would subside All the things I'm missin', Good dives, swoops, formations', Are waiting at the end of my flight. Move 'em on, head 'em up, Head 'em up, move 'em on, Move 'em on, head 'em up, Tandems! Head 'em out, fly 'em in, Ride 'em in, let 'em out, Cut 'em out, fly 'em in, Tandems! Tandems!!! Enjoy. Definately not as good as BillVon's Stiletto song (the Bohemian Rapsidy spoof), but fun none the less.--"When I die, may I be surrounded by scattered chrome and burning gasoline."

nacmacfeegle 0 #2 May 23, 2003 Seen some gnarly tandem landings in my time, maybe the words should be to the tune of Rawhind, as featured in the Bruise Brothers....Didn't they also do a song in that film that might appeal to you....Stand by Your Main.....I'm pretty sure you could pass a wet weekend dreaming up words for that one too.... -------------------- He who receives an idea from me, receives instruction himself without lessening mine; as he who lights his taper at mine, receives light without darkening me.

beemertec 0 #3 May 23, 2003 Is that song gonna be on DZ.com greatest hits? Blue Skies Steve Ok, so it's pink, but I'm secure in my manhood, and I still look cool coming in under it! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
robskydiv 0 #4 May 23, 2003 Nice one Dave. They should dub this song into a master copy of all the tandem jumps at the DZ. But you're going to have to perform it. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
