Lyrics Got a Letter in the Mail - U.S. Drill Sergeant Field Recordings

Got a Letter in the Mail

Go to war or go to jail
Go to war or go to jail
Got a letter in the mail
Got a letter in the mail
In the early morning rain
In the early morning rain
Asked me what I wanna be
Asked me what I wanna be
Said I wanted to be free
Said I wanted to be free
Asked me what I wanna be
Asked me what I wanna be
In the early morning rain
In the early morning rain
Nine to the front and six to the rear
That’s the way we do it here
Used to date a beauty queen
Now I date my M-16
Ain’t no use in lookin' down
Ain’t no discharge on the ground
