Brown
They say that in the army
the food is very fine
Well a dumpling fell off the table
and killed a friend of mine
They say that in the army
the juice is very fine
Well, also carrot juice and
they give me turpentine
So, I don't want no more army life
Skipper, I want to go back to
my cherry home
Skipper, I want to go back home,
not a home sweet home

A chaka chai chai, chaka chaka chai chai

Well a oxen number 7,
they give me number 9
They say that in the army

Well a oxen are
M16 and they give me one

So, I don't want no more army life

to my cherry home
