GUEST,a friend 18 Nov 04 - 11:49 AM posted a version of the military cadence "Mama Mama Can't You See". Here's another version of that military cadence:

MOMMA MOMMA CAN'T YOU SEE
Momma, momma, can't you see
what the Army's done to me
Momma, momma, can't you see
what the Army's done to me

They took away my faded jeans
Now I'm wearing Army greens
They took away my faded jeans
Now I'm wearing Army greens

Chorus:
Boy, I want to go
But they want let me go
Home, oh home, oh hommme

Momma, momma, can't you see
what the Army's done to me
Momma, momma, can't you see
what the Army's done to me

They put me in a barber's chair
I turned around, I had no hair
They put me in a barber's chair
I turned around, I had no hair

Chorus:

Momma, momma, can't you see
what the Army's done to me
Momma, momma, can't you see

what the Army's done to me
I used to drive a Cadillac
Now I hump it on my back
I used to drive a Cadillac
Now I hump it on my back

Chorus:

Momma, momma, can't you see
what the Army's done to me
Momma, momma, can't you see
what the Army's done to me

I used to date a beauty queen
Now I hug my M-16
I used to date a beauty queen
Now I hug my M-16

Chorus:

Momma, momma, can't you see
what the Army's done to me
Momma, momma, can't you see
what the Army's done to me

I used to drive a Chevrolet
Now I'm walking all the way
I used to drive a Chevrolet
Now I'm walking all the way

Chorus:

Momma, momma, can't you see
what the Army's done to me
Momma, momma, can't you see
what the Army's done to me

That cadence has become the bases for this children's handclap rhyme:

Mama Mama can't you see
What the army's done to me.
He took away my MTV.
He made me watch Barney.
Tic Tac Toe
Three in a row
Your mama got killed my GI Joe.
Don't stop till your hands get hot
Don't stop till your hands get red.

[the two children do series of fast handclaps until one child stops because the claps hurt her {or his} hand].
