Gonna Fight The War |
| I finally cut myself shaving yesterday, I guess I’m getting older |
| Gonna quit the games I used to play 'cause they’re making me a soldier |
| And I’m gonna fight the war, gonna win, maybe I might |
| Like I saw it on TV just the other night |
| Gonna have to say goodbye to ma and pa, gee I’m gonna miss them |
| Jackie is the one I’ll miss the most of all 'cause she is my girlfriend |
| And I’m gonna fight the war, gonna join the armies ranks |
| As long as my enemy are using blanks |
| There’s no need to worry about me, oh no |
| If there’s a lack of entertainment there’s always USO |
| A thousand wrappers of Double Bubble Gum will win a radio |
| A hundred twenty three and then I’m done, I hope I get it before I go |
| 'Cause I’m gonna fight the war, gonna march in the infantry |
| And when the fighting starts I’ll hide behind a tree |
| I read my first newspaper yesterday, all that it said was bad |
| I didn’t want to hear what it had to say, I think the whole world’s mad |
| There’s no need to worry, nothing ever goes wrong |
| A sergeant he’s told me that I’ll be home before long |
| I finally cut myself shaving yesterday, I guess I’m getting older |
| Gonna quit the games I used to play 'cause they’re making me a soldier |
| And I’m gonna fight the war, gonna win, maybe I might |
| Like I saw it on TV just the other night |
