Gee But I Want to Go Home by Pete Seeger Lyrics

Well the coffee that they give you
They say is mighty fine
It's good for cuts and bruises and
It tastes like iodine
I don't want no more of Army life
Gee, but I want to go home

Well the biscuits that they give you
They say are mighty fine
One rolled off a table and it
Killed a pal of mine
I don't want no more of Army life
Gee, but I want to go home

Oh, the chicken that they give you
They say is mighty fine
One rolled off a table and
Started marking time
I don't want no more of Army life
Gee, but I want to go home
[Banjo solo]

Well the girls in the PX
They say are mighty fine
Most are over ninety and
The rest are under nine
I don't want no more of Army life
Gee, but I want to go home

Well, oh, they treat us all like monkeys
And make us stand in line
Give you fifty dollars and
Take back forty-nine
I don't want no more of Army life
Gee, but I want to go
Gee, but I want to go
Gee, but I want to go home
