I Don't Want to Get Well

Lyrics

I've just received an answer
 To a letter that I wrote
 From a pal who marched away
 He was wounded in the trenches
 Somewhere in France
 And I worried about him night and day
 "Are you getting well" was what I wrote
 This is what he answered in him note
 I don't want to get well
 I don't want to get well
 I'm in love with a beautiful nurse
 Early in the morning, night and noon
 The cutest little girlie comes and feeds me with a spoon
 I don't wanna get well
 I don't wanna get well
 I'm glad they shot me on the fighting line
 Fine
 The doctor says that I'm in bad condition
 But oh oh oh
 I have so much ambition
 I don't wanna get well
 I don't wanna get well
 'Cause I'm having a wonderful time
 I don't wanna get well
 I don't wanna get well
 I'm in love with a beautiful nurse
 The doctor says discreetment shows good results
 Still I get a bad relapse each time she feels my pulse
 I don't wanna get well
 I don't wanna get well
 I'm glad they shot me on the fighting line
 She holds my hand
 And begs me not to leave her
 Then all at once I get so full of fever
 I don't wanna get well
 I don't wanna get well
 'Cause I'm having a wonderful time
 When I'm blue
 She give me hugs and kisses
 Before I leave
 I'll make this girl my Mrs
 I don't wanna get well
 I don't wanna get well
 'Cause I'm having a wonderful time
