A song I learned from a Leadbelly recording.

(G) The coffee that they give you
they (D7) say is mighty fine
It's good for cuts and bruises
and (G) tastes like iodine
(C) I don't want no more of this (G) army life
(D7) Gee but I want to go (G) home

The biscuits that they give you
they (D7) say are might fine
One rolled off the table
and (G) killed a pal of mine
(C) I don't want no more of this (G) army life
(D7) Gee but I want to go (G) home

The details that they give you
they (D7) say are mighty fine
The garbage that we pick up
they (G) feed us all the time
(C) I don't want no more of this (G) army life
(D7) Gee but I want to go (G) home

The clothes that they give us
they (D7) say are mighty fine
Me and my buddy
can (G) both fit into mine
(C) I don't want no more of this (G) army life
(D7) Gee but I want to go (G) home

The women in the service club
they (D7) say are mighty fine
Most are over ninety
and the (G) rest are under nine
(C) I don't want no more of this (G) army life
(D7) Gee but I want to go (G) home

The chicken that they serve you
they (D7) say is mighty fine
One rolled off the table
and (G) started marking time
(C) I don't want no more of this (G) army life
(D7) Gee but I want to go (G) home

They treat us all like monkeys
they (D7) make us stand in line
They give us fifty dollars
and (G) take back forty-nine
(C) I don't want no more of this (G) army life
(D7) Gee but I want to go
Gee but I want to go
Gee but I want to go (G) home
