G.I. Blues

Lyrics

They give us a room
 With a view of the beautiful Rhine
 They give us a room
 With a view of the beautiful Rhine
 Give me a muddy old creek
 In Texas any old time
 I've got those hup, two, three, four
 Occupation G.I. Blues
 From my G.I. hair to the heels of my G.I. shoes
 And if I don't go stateside soon
 I'm gonna blow my fuse
 We get hasenpfeffer
 And black pumpernickel for chow
 We get hasenpfeffer
 And black pumpernickel for chow
 I'd blow my next month's pay
 For a slice of Texas cow
 We'd like to be heroes
 But all we do here is march
 We'd like to be heroes
 But all we do here is march
 And they don't give the Purple Heart
 For a fallen arch
 I've got those hup, two, three, four
 Occupation G.I. Blues
 From my G.I. hair to the heels of my G.I. shoes
 And if I don't go stateside soon
 I'm gonna blow my fuse
 The frauleins are pretty as flowers
 But we can't make a pass
 The frauleins are pretty as flowers
 But we can't make a pass
 Cause they're all wearing signs saying:
 "Keepen sie off the grass"
 I've got those hup, two, three, four
 Occupation G.I. Blues
 From my G.I. hair to the heels of my G.I. shoes
 And if I don't go stateside soon
 I'm gonna blow my fuse
 Occupation G.I. Blues
 Occupation G.I. Blues
