G. I. Jive - Original |
| The P-F-C, the C-P-L, the S-G-T, the L-T |
| C-P, the O-D, the M-P makes you do catvee |
| It’s the G. I. Jive |
| Man alive |
| It starts with the bugler blowin' reveille over your bed when you arrive |
| 'Ey, Jack, that’s the G. I. Jive |
| Roodley-toot |
| Jump in your suit |
| Make a salute |
| Au re veut |
| After you wash and dress |
| More or less |
| You go get your breakfast from a beautiful little cafe they call «the Mess» |
| 'Ey, Jack, when you convalesce |
| Outta your seat |
| Into the street |
| Make with the feet |
| Au reet |
| If you’re a P-V-T, your duty |
| Is to salute to L-I-E-U-T |
| But if you brush the L-I-E-U-T |
| The M-P makes you K-P on the Q-T |
| This is the G. I. Jive |
| Man alive |
| They give you a private tank that features a little device called «fluid drive» |
| Jack, after you revive |
| Chuck all your junk |
| Back in the trunk |
| Fall on your bunk |
| Clunk |
| This is the G. I. Jive |
| Man alive |
| They give you a private tank that features a little device called «fluid drive» |
| Jack, if you still survive |
| Chuck all your junk |
| Back in the trunk |
| Fall on your bunk |
| Clunk |
| Soon you’re countin' jeeps |
| But before you count to five |
| Seems you’re right back diggin' that G. I. Jive |
