A vacation in a 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 the hero of the neighbourhood, nobody knows that you left for good. You're in the army now oh, oh, you're in the army - now.

Smiling faces at you way to 'lam, 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 wanna survive get out of bed. 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 orders don't 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. 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're in the army, in the army - now. You're in the army now, oh, oh you're in the army -now.
