G
D
my head is a -bobbin'
G
and my bones are a -poppin'
C
Causin' right energy,
G
trust I think I'm a -headin' for the Army again
A
D
That'll just about be my luck
G
Oh, stick around, bud,
you ain't seen the worst
C
G
Cause the worst is yet to come
The fun's gonna start
Em
when I reach the gate
A
D
G
It's gonna bust like an atom bomb
Well, it's fallout, fallin',
dressed right best
C
G
I'm back in the Army again
There's a big fat man
looking me in the eye,
A
D
and I feel like a bowling pin.
G
His arms swiped up like a neon light,
C
he's got three up
G
and three pointing down.
He's got a face like a booger
Em
on a Halloween night,
A
D

and he bellows like a trailing hound.

G
Well, they say it ain't right for
a man to have to fight
C
G
When he ain't mad at nobody yet
But they can take a fella
that's a man of peace
A
D
And make him wanna fuss with friends
G
He'll run against a guy that's
friendly and nice
C
And you'll think you're
G
getting real thick
Then he'll hit you in the arm
Em
with a little piece of cotton
A
D
G
And a needle like a fork and stick
Well, it's fall out, fall in, hurry up and wait
C
G
I'm back in the army, that's a fact
I've picked up so many
old cigarette butts
A
D
that I can't straighten up my back
G
Every time the man blows the whistle,
watch out,
C
G
everybody makes a dash for the door
But I take it slow,
Em
cause I'm bent kinda low,
A
D

and I might run un der the floor

Well, they took me by the arm,
said, step over here,
C
we're gonna give you something to wear.
G
If I'd have had the brains
of a blue -nosed mule,
A
D
I'd have took off right then and there.
G
But I stood around till they got me down,
C
G
how they dressed me up was a sin.
A
Now I look like a bum with no place to go,
D
G
and something that the cat dug in.
Well, it's all I've fallen for at heart,
C
G
I'm back in the Army for sure.
D
I ain't never cleaned
G
so many pots and pans,
A
D
I've peeled as many spuds before.
G
My T .S. slippers all punched out,
C
C
G
and the chaplain sent me away.
So I guess I'm stuck or to run out of love,
A
D
G
I'm back in the Army to stay.
