Tekst piosenki
A vacation in the foreign land Uncle Sam does the best he can You're in the army now Oh, oh you're in the army, now Now you remember what the draft man said Nothing to do all day but stay in bed You're in the army now Oh, oh you're in the army, now You'll be a hero of the neighborhood Nobody knows that you left for good You're in the army now Oh, oh you're in the army, now Smiling faces on the way to 'Nam But once you get there no one gives a damn You're in the army now Oh, oh you're in the army, now Hand grenades flying over your head The sun's flying over your head If you want to survive you're out of bet You're in the army now Oh, oh you're in the army, now Shots ring out in the dead of night The sergeant calls : "Stand up and fight!" You're in the army now Oh, oh you're in the army, now You've got your orders to shoot on sight your finger's on the trigger but it don't seem right You're in the army now Oh, oh you're in the army, now Night is falling and you just can't see Is this illusion or reality You're in the army now Oh, oh you
