I Don't Want No More Of Army Life lyrics
The clothes that they give you
They said it was mighty fine
But me and my buddy
We all couldn't fit into mine
Oh I don't want no more army life
Jesus I want to go home
The shoes that they give you
They said it was mighty fine
You ask for number seven
They will give you number nine
Oh I don't want no more army life
Jesus I want to go home
The hotdogs that they give you
They said it was mighty fine
But one rolled off the table
And it started marking time
Oh I don't want no more army life
Jesus I want to go home
The coffee that they gave you
They said it was mighty fine
It tastes like something else
And it's just like Iodine
Oh I don't want no more army life
Jesus I want to go home
The biscuits that they gave you
They said they were mighty fine
But one jumped off the table
Knocked down a pal of mine
Oh I don't want no more army life
Jesus I want to go home
The money that they gave you
They said it was mighty fine
But they will give you fifty dollars boy
And they'll take back forty-nine
Oh I don't want no more army life
Jesus I want to go home
They told me that they wanted me
And that was mighty fine
But boy when raised up
They said it was not my time
Oh I don't want no more army life
Jesus I want to go home
When you go out to vote
Tell me who you gonna put on your mind
But when you go out to vote boys
You want to rest and take your time
Oh I don't want no more army life
Jesus I want to go home
We don't want no more war
Boy And I got it in my mind
And now if you go out to register
You better rest and take your time
Oh I don't want no more army life
Jesus I want to go home
The food is getting higher
Getting higher everyday
But boy the money I am getting
It is not enough to pay
Oh I don't want no more army life
Jesus I want to go home
