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 |
