Momma Momma Cant you see?
Mama mama can’t you see,
what the army’s done to me.
They put me in a barber’s chair,
spun me around I had no hair.
Mama mama can’t you see,
what the army’s done to me.
They took away my favorite jeans,
now I’m wearing army greens.
Mama mama can’t you see,
what the army’s done to me.
I use to date beauty queens,
now I love my M16.
Mama mama can’t you see,
what the army’s done to me.
I use to drive a Cadalliac,
now I carry one on my back.
They Say That In The Army
They say that in the Army the coffee’s mighty fine
It looks like muddy water and tastes like turpentine
Chorus:
Oh Lord, I wanna go
But they won’t let me go
Oh Lord, I wanna go hoo-hoo-hoooome EH!
They say that in the Army the chow is mighty fine
a chicken jumped off the table and started marking time
Chorus:
Oh Lord, I wanna go
But they won’t let me go
Oh Lord, I wanna go hoo-hoo-hoooome EH!
They say that in the Army the biscuits are mighty fine
one rolled off the table and killed a friend of mine
Chorus:
Oh Lord, I wanna go
But they won’t let me go
Oh Lord, I wanna go hoo-hoo-hoooome EH!
They say that in the Army the training’s might fine
last night there were ten of us, now there’s only nine
Chorus:
Oh Lord, I wanna go
But they won’t let me go
Oh Lord, I wanna go hoo-hoo-hoooome EH!
They say that in the Army the pay is mighty fine
they give you a hundred dollars and take back ninety-nine
Chorus:
Oh Lord, I wanna go
But they won’t let me go
Oh Lord, I wanna go hoo-hoo-hoooome EH!
Yellow Ribbon
Around her hair she wore a yellow ribbon
She wore it in the spring time, in the early month of May
And if you asked her why the heck she wore it
She’d say she wore it for her soldier who was far, far away
Far away
Far away
She wore it for her soldier who was far, far away
Around the block she pushed a baby carriage
She pushed it in the spring time, in the early month of May
And if you asked her why the heck she pushed it
She’d say she pushed it for her soldier who was far, far away
Far away
Far away
She pushed it for her soldier who was far, far away
Behind the door, her father kept a shotgun
She kept it in the spring time, in the early month of May
And if you asked her why the heck she kept it
She’d say she kept it for her soldier who was far, far away
Far away
Far away
She kept it for her soldier who was far, far away
Around his grave she laid the pretty flowers
She laid them in the spring time, in the early month of May
And if you asked her why the heck she laid them
She’d say she laid them for her soldier who was far, far away
Far away
Far away
She laid them for her soldier who was far, far away
You get a line
You get a line and I’ll get a pole
Honey, honey
You get a line and I’ll get a pole
Baby, baby
You get a line and I’ll get a pole
We’ll go down to the fishin’ hole
Refrain: Honey, oh baby, be mine
ALL
Go to your left, your right, your left
ALL
Go to your left, your right, your left, hey!
I had a girl who lived on a creek
Honey, honey
I had a girl who lived on a creek
Baby, baby
I had a girl who lived on a creek
She was cute and she was sweet
I had a girl, looked good in blue
Honey, honey
I had a girl, looked good in blue
Baby, baby
I had a girl, looked good in blue
She could make a fool out of you
Yellow Bird
A yellow bird
With a yellow bill
Was sitting on
My windowsill
I lured him in
With a piece of bread
And then I smashed
His little head
A little puppy
A baby dog
Was sitting on
My table saw
I picked him up
Like a piece of meat
And then I cut
Off all his feet
A little kitten
A baby cat
Was sitting on
My welcome mat
I picked him up
And made him purr
And then a ripped
Out all his fur
A little mouse
With little feet
Was sitting on
My toilet seat
I pushed him in
And flushed him down
And then I watched
Him spin around
