My sister had this record and shared it with me. I was born in 1958. She also had a yellow record with Roy Rogers and Dale Evans singing," Happy Trails to You" on one side and "Let The Sunshine In" on the other.
Zooming fast, into the black we race Rocket Rangers all Roaring past, blazing a trail in space With pride we stand, never to fall Thund'ring on, ready to fight for right Let the rockets roar From the sands of Mars, out to the distant stars We're the Rocket Ranger Corps (Repeat all; then finish with the last two lines)
I had this record in the fifties, too...and Ive always hummed the damn tune. Its great to review the words once again, and remember how they inspired me as a kid growing up in 50's America.
Theme song from the TV Show "Rod Brown of the Rocket Rangers" (1953) (Jack Weinstock / Willie Gilbert / Robert Allen) Recorded on Columbia Playtime 406-PV Sung by The Rocket Rangers (Mitch Miller, His Orch. & Chorus) - 1953
I had the record when I was really young in the 50's. I remember the words and the arrangement of the music. The date 1988 seems a bit later then I remember.
I still have my Rocket Ranger Shirt! May Cliff Robertson many years later and didn't even realize it was the same actor from my favorite TV show back in the day!

Zooming fast, into the black we race
Rocket Rangers all
Roaring past, blazing a trail in space
With pride we stand, never to fall
Thund'ring on, ready to fight for right
Let the rockets roar
From the sands of Mars, out to the distant stars
We're the Rocket Ranger Corps

Thanks for posting a bit of nostalgia from way, way, back when!
I remember the show, but not the theme song. Well, I was only seven years old and it's been 69 years. Lol.
