No private rooms or telephones
You had your breakfast in bed before
But you won't have it there anymore
We like our barracks nice and clean
You had a housemaid to clean your floor
But she won't help you out anymore
Do what the buglers command
They're in the army and not in the land
You and your lady went to town
She had you worried, but this is war
And she won't worry you any
A bunch of frightened rookies were listening,
They listened while the sergeant was
They stood there at attention,
The sergeant looked them over and this is what he said,
No private rooms or telephones
No private rooms or telephones
You had your breakfast in bed before
We like our barracks nice and clean
You had a housemaid to clean your floor
But she won't help you out anymore,
Do what the buglers command
You and your lady went to town
You and your lady went to town
She had you worried, but this is war
