One Step Forward, Two Steps Back |
Baby, Baby, Baby, I got trouble in mind |
I can’t hide what I see |
But I wish that I was blind |
We’re dancin' to the music and we’re both in time |
But when the music’s over |
I find that I’ve been left behind |
One step forward, two steps back |
It’s a crazy dance |
Darlin' do you think that there’s |
A chance for our romance |
Baby, Baby, Baby, we’re comin' apart I fear |
Cause each time I take one step forward |
You take two to the rear |
The Foreign Legion, the Sudan region |
The Bedouins front and rear |
The captain turned to the ranks |
And he said I need one volunteer here |
Volunteer take one step forward |
Everyone else stand still |
Well you do the rest |
They took one step forward |
And I had to go up the hill |
One step forward, two steps back |
It’s a crazy dance |
Darlin' do you think that there’s |
A chance for our romance |
Soldier, soldier, soldier |
Didn’t you know from the first |
Volunteer take one step forward |
You take two in reverse |
One step forward, two steps back |
The situation, the aggrevation |
It’s gettin' worse every day |
Every time I go to leave |
She tells me I should stay |
I’d almost changed my mind |
I’d started to unpack |
But as my feet took one step forward |
She took two steps back |
