  • Fallen Soldiers (Rock Version) - Military Cadence Lyrics | Jonathan Michael Fleming

    My girl’s a vegetable She lives in a hospital And I would do anything To keep her alive My girl’s got no arms or legs Fallen Soldiers (Rock Version) | Military Cadence (Lyrics & History) (Skip to lyrics) "Jodies," the U.S. Military’s call-and-response chants, are a powerful tradition . They not only keep troops in sync but also boost morale and embody the spirit of camaraderie essential to military life. I wrote this cadence back in 2021 when a live video of my cadence-calling went viral. This jody took the internet by storm and quickly garnered the attention of several big-name musicians in the military space like The Marine Rapper, Topher, D.Cure, MJ Hanks, and more. One individual in particular stood out to me, and was willing to put his reputation as an artist on the line to help me produce and record Fallen Soldiers, now as a radio-ready rock song. His name is Mick Blankenship, and you can even hear his vocals in the cadence ‘response.’ Fallen Soldiers ultimately made the top 10 iTunes Rock chart and received millions of views and streams. This was only made possible because of artists who believed in me and shared my song, along with the millions of American patriots who have listened and supported the song since. Lyrics Out on the battlefield covered in blood There’s an Airborne Sapper dying in the mud The enemy came closing in until the Soldier fell So with one final magazine he sent ‘em all to hell Fallen Soldiers We stand on your shoulders We carry your legacy ‘Cause no one said that freedom’s free Fallen soldiers We stand on your shoulders I’ll carry your legacy Till some day they remember me Out in a foxhole, shaking in his boots There’s a brand new private too afraid to shoot The Soldier to his left jumped on a hand grenade And the gruesome price of war he paid Related Products New Fallen Soldiers Merch Quick View Fallen Soldiers - JMF Hooded Sweatshirt Regular Price $59.99 Sale Price $54.99 Quick View "Fallen Soldiers" Blended T-Shirt - JMF Regular Price $34.99 Sale Price $29.99 Listen to this cadence: Song Name: Fallen Soldiers (Rock Version) Single by Jonathan Michael Fleming Fallen soldiers We stand on your shoulders We carry your legacy ‘Cause no one said that freedom’s free Fallen soldiers We stand on your shoulders I’ll carry your legacy Till some day they remember me Fallen soldiers We stand on your shoulders We carry your legacy ‘Cause no one said that freedom’s free Fallen soldiers We stand on your shoulders I’ll carry your legacy Till some day they remember me DISCLAIMERS: The lyrics and music to the above cadence are not original to me.

  • Interlude ("Shoot Him in the Head") - Military Cadence Lyrics

    Left, go left (Hey!) Go left (Hey!) Go let (Hey!) Left, right, your left (You go it) Left, right, your left (You got it) Left, right, go left Drill Sergeant getting busy one time Go left, right, go left (Two time, three time) (Pump, pump, pump, pump it up) Give it up two, three, four (Shoot him in the head, shoot him in the head, kill him!) Give it up, tow, three, four (You got to) Re-load, and shoot him again Left, your left (Hey!) Interlude ("Shoot Him in the Head") | Military Cadence (Lyrics & History) (Skip to lyrics) The US Military features a time-honored tradition of call-and-response songs used during marching, rucking, and running, a sound that many recognize. This practice initiated by Private Willie Lee Duckworth in 1944, resulted in the development of "Jodies," "Jody calls," or "cadences," which have become a fundamental aspect of military culture. Although some cadences may have a controversial tone, often touching on themes of violence and war, they help to prepare young soldiers for the challenges they will face in combat. This cadence, "Interlude" as I call it, has been a staple for generations. It is less lyrical, and not meant to tell a story, as many cadences are.

They keep soldiers in step, inspire teamwork, and reinforce the unity that’s essential during marches and runs. Somewhere There’s a Mother reflects on the emotional sacrifices made by the families of soldiers, and especially Gold Star families, emphasizing the shared sense of duty and honor within military life. This cadence, with its emphasis on familial bonds and the emotional toil of military life, talks about the deep connections between Soldiers and their loved ones, highlighting the collective commitment to duty and country. Finally, the story is set to rest when the narrator reflects on a fallen Soldier’s child. Lyrics Somewhere there’s a mother She’s crying for her boy He’s a US Soldier With orders to deploy So don’t you shed him no tears He don’t need your sympathy ‘Cause he’s a US Soldier That’s all he wants to be Somewhere there's a father He's proud as can be Of his US Soldier All he'd hoped he would be So don't you shed him no tears He don’t need your sympathy His boy's a US Soldier All he wanted him to be Related Products Signed Copies Quick View Cadences Vol. 1, 2, 3, & 4 Bundle (CDs) - AUTOGRAPHED Regular Price $64.99 Sale Price $59.99 New Granny Merch Quick View "When My Granny Was 91" - JMF Hooded Sweatshirt Regular Price $59.99 Sale Price $54.99 New Cadence Merch Quick View "When My Granny Was 91" - Soft Blend Cotton T-Shirt - JMF Regular Price $34.99 Sale Price $29.99 New Fallen Soldiers Merch Quick View Fallen Soldiers - JMF Hooded Sweatshirt Regular Price $59.99 Sale Price $54.99 Quick View "Fallen Soldiers" Blended T-Shirt - JMF Regular Price $34.99 Sale Price $29.99 Quick View JMF "Dad Hat" - Camo Pattern with JMF USA Flag Patch Regular Price $34.99 Sale Price $29.99 New Cadence Merch Quick View “What a Way to Die" - Soft Blend Cotton T-Shirt - JMF Regular Price $34.99 Sale Price $29.99 New Gun/Bear Merch Quick View Right to "Bear" Arms - JMF Hooded Sweatshirt Regular Price $59.99 Sale Price $54.99 New Gun/Bear Merch Quick View Right to "Bear" Arms - Blended T-Shirt - JMF Regular Price $34.99 Sale Price $29.99 Quick View "1776 Problems" - JMF Hooded Sweatshirt Regular Price $59.99 Sale Price $54.99 New Patriotic Merch Quick View "1776 Problems" - Soft Blend Cotton T-Shirt - JMF Regular Price $34.99 Sale Price $29.99 New Cadence Merch Quick View “I Left My Home" - Soft Blend Cotton T-Shirt - JMF Regular Price $34.99 Sale Price $29.99 New Cadence Merch Quick View "Sound Off" - Soft Blend Cotton T-Shirt Regular Price $34.99 Sale Price $29.99 Quick View "Keep Marching" - Blended T-Shirt - JMF Regular Price $29.99 Sale Price $27.49 New Merch Quick View "Stars Spangled and Enemies Mangled" - Soft Blend Cotton T-Shirt - JMF Regular Price $34.99 Sale Price $29.99 Quick View Cadences Volume 1 (CD) Regular Price $29.99 Sale Price $24.99 Listen to this cadence: Song Name: Somewhere There's a Mother Album Name: Cadences Volume 4 by Jonathan Michael Fleming Somewhere there's a sister She’s crying for her bro He's a US Soldier And he said he had to go So don't you shed him no tears He don’t need your sympathy He’s a US Soldier That’s all he wanted to be Somewhere there’s a daughter She's crying for her dad He was a US Soldier Now he's just a folded flag So don’t you shed him no tears He don’t need your sympathy He was a US Soldier That’s what he wanted to be Somewhere there's a son Growing up without his dad He was a US Soldier Now he's just a folded flag Don’t you shed him no tears He don’t need your sympathy He'll grow up to be a Soldier That's all he wants to be DISCLAIMERS: The lyrics and music to the above cadence are not original to me.

  • Fallen Soldiers - Military Cadence Lyrics | Jonathan Michael Fleming

    My girl’s a vegetable She lives in a hospital And I would do anything To keep her alive My girl’s got no arms or legs Fallen Soldiers | Military Cadence (Lyrics & History) (Skip to lyrics) The U.S. Military's call-and-response chants , known as "jodies," reflect the camaraderie at the core of military life. These rhythmic traditions not only uplift morale but also keep troops moving in perfect sync. Fallen Soldiers is a powerful and emotional cadence that pays tribute to the bravery and sacrifice of those who gave their lives for freedom. Through vivid storytelling, it serves as a reminder of the heavy cost of war and the lasting legacy left behind. The project began in 2021 when a live video of my cadence-calling went viral. The clip quickly gained momentum online, attracting attention from several well-known musicians in the military community, including The Marine Rapper, Topher, D.Cure, MJ Hanks, and others. One artist, Mick Blankenship, stood out and took a chance by helping turn this cadence into a polished, radio-ready rock song. His vocals can even be heard in the cadence responses. Fallen Soldiers later broke into the top 10 on the iTunes Rock chart, earning millions of views and streams. None of this would have been possible without the artists who supported and shared the song—or the millions of American patriots who continue to listen and stand behind it. Lyrics Out on the battlefield covered in blood There’s an Airborne Sapper dying in the mud The enemy came closing in until the Soldier fell So with one final magazine he sent ‘em all to hell Fallen Soldiers We stand on your shoulders We carry your legacy ‘Cause no one said that freedom’s free Fallen soldiers We stand on your shoulders I’ll carry your legacy Till some day they remember me Related Products New Fallen Soldiers Merch Quick View Fallen Soldiers - JMF Hooded Sweatshirt Regular Price $59.99 Sale Price $54.99 Quick View "Fallen Soldiers" Blended T-Shirt - JMF Regular Price $34.99 Sale Price $29.99 Out in a foxhole, shaking in his boots There’s a brand new private too afraid to shoot The Soldier to his left jumped on a hand grenade And the gruesome price of war he paid Fallen soldiers We stand on your shoulders We carry your legacy ‘Cause no one said that freedom’s free Fallen soldiers We stand on your shoulders I’ll carry your legacy Till some day they remember me Listen to this cadence: Song Name: Fallen Soldiers Single by Jonathan Michael Fleming DISCLAIMERS: The lyrics and music to the above cadence are not original to me.

  • War With a Soldier - Army Cadence Lyrics | Jonathan Michael Fleming

    No limit to the limit, I thought I told ya You don’t wanna go to war with a soldier OH, AH I wanna slap somebody No limit to the limit, I thought I told ya... War With a Soldier | Military Cadence (Lyrics & History) (Skip to lyrics) The US military has been known for their tradition of singing while marching since WW2. Originating with the Army in 1944, the custom of calling cadence, or singing "jodies" has been a staple in training, PT, and drill in all branches. The style came from African work songs, introduced by PVT Willie Lee Duckworth, a black soldier from Georgia who used the call-and-response style to motivate his fellow-soldiers after long days of work. Through the years, cadences have evolved to include a shocking and sometimes offensive tone. The violent nature of some cadences has been used to mentally prepare new trainees for the realities of their work. The following cadence "War With a Soldier" boasts about the reasons why soldiers should not be tested. Lyrics No limit to the limit, I thought I told ya You don’t wanna go to war with a soldier Ooh, ah, I wanna kill somebody Ooh, ah, I wanna bury their body Motivated, dedicated, I thought I told ya You don’t wanna go to war with a soldier No limit to the limit, I thought I told ya You don’t wanna go to war with a soldier Ooh, ah, I wanna slap somebody No limit to the limit, I thought I told ya You don’t wanna go to war with a solider Ooh, ah, I wanna hurt somebody Ooh, ah, I wanna leave them bloody Related Products Signed Copies Quick View Cadences Vol. 1, 2, 3, & 4 Bundle (CDs) - AUTOGRAPHED Regular Price $64.99 Sale Price $59.99 New Granny Merch Quick View "When My Granny Was 91" - JMF Hooded Sweatshirt Regular Price $59.99 Sale Price $54.99 New Cadence Merch Quick View "When My Granny Was 91" - Soft Blend Cotton T-Shirt - JMF Regular Price $34.99 Sale Price $29.99 New Fallen Soldiers Merch Quick View Fallen Soldiers - JMF Hooded Sweatshirt Regular Price $59.99 Sale Price $54.99 Quick View "Fallen Soldiers" Blended T-Shirt - JMF Regular Price $34.99 Sale Price $29.99 Quick View JMF "Dad Hat" - Camo Pattern with JMF USA Flag Patch Regular Price $34.99 Sale Price $29.99 New Cadence Merch Quick View “What a Way to Die" - Soft Blend Cotton T-Shirt - JMF Regular Price $34.99 Sale Price $29.99 New Gun/Bear Merch Quick View Right to "Bear" Arms - JMF Hooded Sweatshirt Regular Price $59.99 Sale Price $54.99 New Gun/Bear Merch Quick View Right to "Bear" Arms - Blended T-Shirt - JMF Regular Price $34.99 Sale Price $29.99 Quick View "1776 Problems" - JMF Hooded Sweatshirt Regular Price $59.99 Sale Price $54.99 New Patriotic Merch Quick View "1776 Problems" - Soft Blend Cotton T-Shirt - JMF Regular Price $34.99 Sale Price $29.99 New Cadence Merch Quick View “I Left My Home" - Soft Blend Cotton T-Shirt - JMF Regular Price $34.99 Sale Price $29.99 New Cadence Merch Quick View "Sound Off" - Soft Blend Cotton T-Shirt Regular Price $34.99 Sale Price $29.99 Quick View "Keep Marching" - Blended T-Shirt - JMF Regular Price $29.99 Sale Price $27.49 New Merch Quick View "Stars Spangled and Enemies Mangled" - Soft Blend Cotton T-Shirt - JMF Regular Price $34.99 Sale Price $29.99 Quick View Cadences Volume 1 (CD) Regular Price $29.99 Sale Price $24.99 Listen to this cadence: Song Name: War With a Soldier Album Name: Cadences Volume 2 by Jonathan Michael Fleming DISCLAIMERS: The lyrics and music to the above cadence are not original to me.

  • Yellow Bird - Military Cadence Lyrics | Jonathan Michael Fleming

    A yellow bird, with a yellow bill Sat upon, my window sill I lured him in, with a piece of bread And then I smashed, his little head A tiny mouse, with tiny feet Sat upon, my toilet seat I pushed him in, and I flushed him down And that little mouse, went round and round I called the doc the doctor said That little bird, is freaking dead A yellow bird... Yellow Bird | Military Cadence (Lyrics & History) (Skip to lyrics) The US military has a long-standing tradition of singing while marching, dating back to World War II. The Army introduced the custom of calling cadence or singing "jodies" in 1944, and it has since become a fundamental part of training, PT, and drill across all branches. The style of singing originated from African work songs, which were brought to the military by PVT Willie Lee Duckworth, a black soldier from Georgia who used the call-and-response style to motivate his fellow soldiers after long days of work. Over time, cadences have developed to incorporate a jarring and borderline objectionable theme. Some of these offensive and/or violent-natured jodies are an integral part of a service member's adapting to the nature of their new work. "Yellow Bird," in all its comical violence, has become a classic within military culture. There are two versions below - the recorded version (clean) and the classic version, which I chose not to record. I do not condone the lyrics... Just documenting them. Don't judge me too hard Lyrics (Clean Version) A yellow bird With a yellow bill Sat upon My window sill I lured him in With a piece of bread And then I smashed His little head A tiny mouse With tiny feet Sat upon My toilet seat I pushed him in And I flushed him down And that little mouse Went round and round I called the doc And the doctor said That little bird Is freaking dead Related Products Signed Copies Quick View Cadences Vol. 1, 2, 3, & 4 Bundle (CDs) - AUTOGRAPHED Regular Price $64.99 Sale Price $59.99 New Granny Merch Quick View "When My Granny Was 91" - JMF Hooded Sweatshirt Regular Price $59.99 Sale Price $54.99 New Cadence Merch Quick View "When My Granny Was 91" - Soft Blend Cotton T-Shirt - JMF Regular Price $34.99 Sale Price $29.99 New Fallen Soldiers Merch Quick View Fallen Soldiers - JMF Hooded Sweatshirt Regular Price $59.99 Sale Price $54.99 Quick View "Fallen Soldiers" Blended T-Shirt - JMF Regular Price $34.99 Sale Price $29.99 Quick View JMF "Dad Hat" - Camo Pattern with JMF USA Flag Patch Regular Price $34.99 Sale Price $29.99 New Cadence Merch Quick View “What a Way to Die" - Soft Blend Cotton T-Shirt - JMF Regular Price $34.99 Sale Price $29.99 New Gun/Bear Merch Quick View Right to "Bear" Arms - JMF Hooded Sweatshirt Regular Price $59.99 Sale Price $54.99 New Gun/Bear Merch Quick View Right to "Bear" Arms - Blended T-Shirt - JMF Regular Price $34.99 Sale Price $29.99 Quick View "1776 Problems" - JMF Hooded Sweatshirt Regular Price $59.99 Sale Price $54.99 New Patriotic Merch Quick View "1776 Problems" - Soft Blend Cotton T-Shirt - JMF Regular Price $34.99 Sale Price $29.99 New Cadence Merch Quick View “I Left My Home" - Soft Blend Cotton T-Shirt - JMF Regular Price $34.99 Sale Price $29.99 New Cadence Merch Quick View "Sound Off" - Soft Blend Cotton T-Shirt Regular Price $34.99 Sale Price $29.99 Quick View "Keep Marching" - Blended T-Shirt - JMF Regular Price $29.99 Sale Price $27.49 New Merch Quick View "Stars Spangled and Enemies Mangled" - Soft Blend Cotton T-Shirt - JMF Regular Price $34.99 Sale Price $29.99 Quick View Cadences Volume 1 (CD) Regular Price $29.99 Sale Price $24.99 Listen to this cadence: Song Name: Yellow Bird Album Name: Cadences Volume 2 by Jonathan Michael Fleming (Traditional Version) A yellow bird With a yellow bill Sat upon My window sill I lured him in With a piece of bread And then I smashed His f***ing head A tiny mouse With tiny feet Sat upon My toilet seat I pushed him in And I flushed him down And that little mouse Went round and round I called the doc And the doctor said That little bird Is freaking dead The moral of The story is If you want some head You need some bread DISCLAIMERS: The lyrics and music to the above cadence are not original to me.
