"North Korean Blues"
(by Loudon Wainwright III)
(from episode "Rainbow Bridge"; sung by Capt. Spalding)
Oh Tokyo,
They got some saki, and sashimi, and some clean sheets,
Oh, kimono, oh, kimono,
Tokyo's the town that I love the best,
East may be East, and West may be West,
Forget about between, it'll drive you insane,
And teach you things you never knew before.

Mash Sound Theme - Captain Spalding's song about the Nurses lyrics
Capt. Spalding's song about the Nurses
(by Loudon Wainwright III)
(from episode "There is Nothing Like a Nurse"; sung by Capt. Spalding)
[Refrain]:
And I wonder if they miss us,
Now wouldn't that be funny?
Now that we're without them
We can hardly stand ourselves.
Well it's funny when they're here
How we take for granted
The way they taste, the way they feel,
Their sight, their smell, their sound.
And it's funny when they're gone
Just how bad we miss them
And how life can be so empty
When they're not around.
[Refrain]

Mash Sound Theme - Molly Malone lyrics
"Molly Malone"
(by Barry Taylor)
(from episode "That's Show Biz"; sung by Sarah Miller and Marina Ryan from the U.S.O. and the whole camp in post-op)
In Dublin's fair city where the girls are so pretty,
I first set my eyes on sweet Molly Malone,
She wheeled a wheel barrel through streets broad and narrow,
Crying "cockles and mussels, alive alive oh."
[Chorus]:
Alive alive oh, alive alive oh,
Crying "cockles and mussels, alive alive oh."
She was a fishmonger and that was no wonder,
For so were her father and mother before,
They each wheeled their barrels through streets broad and narrow,
Crying "cockles and mussels, alive alive oh."
[Chorus]
Original version:
In Dublin's fair city where girls are so pretty
'Twas there that I first met sweet Molly Malone
As she wheeled her wheelbarrow
Through street broad and narrow
Crying, "Cockles and mussels, alive, alive oh"
[Chorus]:
Alive, alive oh, alive, alive oh,
Crying, "Cockles and mussels, alive, alive oh"
Now she was a fishmonger and sure 'twas no wonder
For so were her mother and father before
And they each wheeled their barrows
Through streets broad and narrow
Crying, "Cockles and mussels, alive, alive oh"
[Chorus]
She died of a fever and no one could save her
And that was the end of sweet Molly Malone
Now her ghost wheels her barrow
Through streets broad and narrow
Crying, "Cockles and mussels, alive, alive oh"
[Chorus]

Mash Sound Theme - "Long, Long Trail" lyrics
"Long, Long Trail"
(from episode "Change of Command"; sung by Potter, Hawkeye, and B.J.)
There's a long, long night of waiting
Until my dreams all come true,
Til the day when I'll be going down that long, long trail with you.
There's a long, long trail a-winding
Into the land of my dreams,
Where the nightingales are singing and a white moon beams.
There's a long, long night of waiting
Until my dreams all come true,
Til the day when I'll be coming down that long, long trail with you.

Mash Sound Themes - Father Mulcahy's Korean War Song lyrics
Fr. Mulcahy's Korean War Song
(from episode "Dear Uncle Abdul"; sung by Fr. Mulcahy)
There's no one singing war songs now like people used to do,
No "Over There," no "Praise the Lord," no "Glory Hallelu."
Perhaps at last we've asked ourselves what we should have asked before,
With the pain and death this madness brings, what were we ever singing for?

Mash Sound Theme - The Army Song lyrics
Army Song
(from episode "Movie Tonight")
Father Mulcahy:
A chaplain in the Army has a collar on his neck,
if you don't listen to him you'll all wind up in heck.
[Chorus]: Oh I don't want no more of Army life, Gee Ma, I wanna go home!
Hawkeye & B.J.:
Oh the surgeons in the Army they say we're mighty bright,
we work on soldiers through the day and nurses through the night.
[Chorus]
Colonel Potter:
Friendships in the Army they say are mighty rare,
so I spend all my free time carousing with my mare.
[Chorus]
the Nurses:
The surgeons in the Army, they're bright, they are profound,
but we'll take chopper pilots they'll get you off the ground.
[Chorus]
Radar O'Reilly:
The corporals in the Army you say we're really green,
but if it weren't for us guys you'd be in the latrine.
[Chorus]
Corporal Klinger:
Oh some guys like the Army I think that it's a mess,
if it's so damn terrific how come I wear a dress?
[Chorus]
Margaret Houlihan:
Oh some nurses in the Army they haven't tied the knot,
but this one's gonna try it with Donald Penobscott.
Ending chorus:
Oh I don't want no more of Army life, Gee Ma, I wanna go,
But they won't let me go, Gee Ma, I wanna go home!
Frank Burns:
Oh Hawkeye and oh B.J.,
they think they're pretty smart,
I'd like to take a scalpel and stab them in the heart.
