American Boy Soldier |
What d’you wanna do boy? |
Well, I don’t really know |
D’you wanna go back to school, kid? |
Er… not really! |
Well, d’you wanna go to work, boy? |
Uh-uh! |
D’you wanna dig potatoes, son? |
No Siree! |
What d’you wanna do, boy? |
D’you wanna go to war, boy? |
Ooh, yes please sir! |
(x3) |
They’re sending me home, shot through to the bone |
He had a red cross on his arm, all I got was napalm |
The American Army, the American Army, |
Wait till the Russians get hold of you! |
Not forgetting the Navy, not forgetting the Navy |
And the Air force too! |
Shot down from my plane, they leave me out cold |
Never be the same again, I was just 16yrs old! |
The American Army, the American Army, |
Wait till the Russians get hold of you! |
Not forgetting the Navy, Not forgetting the Navy |
And the Air force too! |
It’ll be so nice to get back home to North Carolina |
See my blonde, all-American honey bun |
With her transistor radio turned up full! |
Do all the things we used to do, back in the old days! |
What a thrill it could be! |
Hope you enjoy the air raid! |
