This song is about the american soldiers in vietnam who carried the M-60 machine gun and they had a Bald eagle painted on their arm and the Closest thing to a bald eagle in vietnam was the chicken and they refered to them as Chicken men and when they saw the M-60 machin gun men coming they would say. Here comes the rooster " Ở đây có gà trống "
the term rooster came From the men issued the M60 in Vietnam, usually they would cut their hair into Mohawks , Hence the reason Travis Bickle did in Taxi Driver, also they carried a BFG and they would get "Cocky" hence rooster!
The M60 was the vietnam era's Support gun ,by textbook standards it required three men to use,one to carry the gun,one to carry ammo,and one to carry the bipod (which really wasn't that heavy) most soldiers would either attach the bipod and carry the ammo in belts on them or discard the bipod altogether
the song was written by Jerry Cantrell's father about his time in Vietnam. The verse where he's talking about "gloria sent me pictures of my boy" he's talking about Jerry Cantrell who was the guitarist for Alice In Chains.
the real meanin of "rooster" is that in NAM there were airmen we called eagles, but the viets didnt have a word for Eagle, so they called them roosters.And now you know,the rest of the story.
that's one bad ass cock

oh sorry forgot to post the lyric with the proof of my comment
"Walkin' tall machine gun man"
also his dad had red hair so that would explain the nickname rooster being applied

A "Big Fucking Gun"

You mean tripod. Theres a bipod built in to the damn gun already. Anyone who says it wasn't that heavy hasn't been forced marched 25 miles.
