Kiss My Ass |
| I got out of school and I was feeling kinda down |
| I thought I’d join the Army just to take a look around |
| I went on down to the recruiter man |
| And that’s when all my troubles began |
| Well, I’ve been up, down and around |
| This country more than a couple of times |
| But I never knew until I got into the Army |
| That thinking for yourself was a crime |
| Get over here, stand over there |
| Let’s see your identification |
| Shut your mouth, son, get back in line |
| We’re sending you to South East Asia |
| Well, they gave me some shoes that hurt my feet |
| They gave me some food not fit to eat |
| They told me that I wasn’t fighting alone |
| They sent me to Saigon and they stayed home |
| Well, I’ve been up, down and around |
| This country more than a couple of times |
| But I never knew until I got into the Army |
| That thinking for yourself was a crime |
| Get over here, stand over there |
| Let’s see your identification |
| Shut your mouth, son, get back in line |
| We’re sending you to South East Asia |
| All right |
| One, two, three, four |
| We don’t want your fuckin' war |
| Get someone else, hey don’t get me |
| Left, right, left, right |
| You know the whole damn thing puts me uptight |
| I done my duty and I fought my fight |
| And I thought I knew I was doing right |
| But that’s all over, I’m free at last |
| An' if they want any more, they can kiss my ass |
| 'Cause I’ve been up and down and around |
| This country more than a couple of times |
| But I never knew until I got into the Army |
| That thinking for yourself was a crime |
| Get over here, stand over there |
| Let’s see your identification |
| Shut your mouth, son, get back in line |
| We’re sending you to South East Asia — like hell |
