G.I. Blues

[Verse 1:]
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.

[Chorus:]
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 going to blow my fuse.

[Verse 2:]
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.

[Chorus]

[Verse 3:]
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".

[Chorus]
