Reconversion Blues - Original |
I got those re-hee-hee, reconversion blues |
I got those re-hee-hee, reconversion blues |
Can’t wait to buy a new automobile |
And a pair of two-tone shoes |
I can walk right past my draft board |
And I won’t get no dirty looks |
I can go down to the grocer |
Without takin' my ration books |
I got those re-hee-hee, reconversion blues |
I can drive in a gas station |
And get most anything I choose |
I forgot the taste of bacon |
Butter and whipped cream cake |
At night I wake up screamin': |
«Bring me a nice fat juicy steak!» |
I got those re-hee-hee, reconversion blues |
I’m gonna buy my baby nylons |
All the nylons she can use |
No more fish on Tuesdays |
I get plenty meat in my stews |
There’s plenty of cigarettes and chewing gum |
And nuts and bolts and screws |
I got those re-hee-hee, reconversion blues |
If someone say «for the duration» |
Brother, I’m gonna blow my fuse |
I’m gonna reconvert my baby |
With a house and a diamond ring |
We’re gonna lock our door this winter |
And we won’t come out till spring |
I got those re-hee-hee, reconversion blues |
I’m gonna buy a brand new radio |
That don’t know how to get the latest news |
