It’s Alright (Remember JFK) | Military Cadence
(Lyrics & History)
From boot camps to training exercises, cadences keep military units moving in sync through call-and-response songs at standardized marching and running tempos.
Lyrics
It’s alright, it’s alright
It’s alright, it’s okay
We’ve seen better days
Hey
Remember JFK
He tried to lead the way
But he was shot one day
In the early morning
Hey, Hey
Hey, Hey
We’ve seen better days
Hey
Remember MLK
He had a dream one day
But he was shot one day
In the early morning
Hey, Hey
Hey, Hey
We’ve seen better days
Hey
Remember Harambe
He just wanted to play
But he was shot one day
In the early morning
It’s alright, It’s alright
It’s alright, It’s okay
Hey
We’ve seen better days
Hey, hey
Hey, hey
Hey, hey
Hey
