Three Rules of Discipline and the Eight Rules of Attention

Here's a song from another country

It's a marching song

Thirty years ago, the soldiers of Chiang Kai-shek's army were deserted to join the red army

And most of them were illiterate

And they had to learn a few things in a hurry

So there was a song they were supposed to learn

So this song has a peculiar title of

The Three Rules of Discipline and the Eight Rules of Attention

And...it's...they put into the whole thing

Here's how it goes

The verses go on

They say...always march in step

Obey orders

Don't take anything from the peasant

Not even a needle or thread without paying for it

Don't molest women

Help the peasant gather their crops at harvest time

And so on and so on

All in this tune
