Elvis Presley - G.I. Blues

G.I. Blues

(Sid Tepper - Roy Bennett)
They gi have us a room
with a view of the beautiful Rhine
They gi have us a room
with a view of the beautiful Rhine
Gimme a muddy old creek
in Texas any old time
I have 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 dont go stateside soon
Imgonna blow my fuse
We get hasenpfeffer
and black pumpernickel for chow
We get hasenpfeffer
and black pumpernickel for chow
Id blow my next months pay
for a slice of Texas cow
Wed like to be heroes,
but all we do here is march
Wed like to be heroes,
but all we do here is march
And they dont gi have the Purple Heart
for a fallen arch
I have 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 dont go stateside soon
Imgonna blow my fuse
The frauleins are pretty as flowers
But we can not make a pass
The frauleins are pretty as flowers
But we can not make a pass
Cause theyre all wearin signs saying:
"Keepen sie off the grass"
I have 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 dont go stateside soon
Imgonna blow my fuse
