Greetings<br />

This is Uncle Sam<br />

I want to take you<br />

To a far off land<br />

<br />

I need you<br />

Oh, I need you<br />

Yes, I need you<br />

To lend a helping hand<br />

<br />

Said goodbye<br />

To all my buddies<br />

Say hello<br />

To your new friends<br />

'Cause you're in the army now<br />

And your new life has just begun<br />

<br />

I need you<br />

Oh, I need you<br />

Yes, I need you<br />

To lend a helping hand<br />

<br />

I can just see me now<br />

With a rifle in my hand<br />

I'm gonna have to say<br />

Goodbye to my girl<br />

And I hope she doesn't<br />

Find another man<br />

And baby, baby<br />

While I'm away<br />

Please, please write everyday<br />

<br />

Oh no, no<br />

Please don't take me, Uncle Sam<br />

You're in the army now<br />

<br />

Goodbye, baby<br />

So long, friends<br />

Goodbye, baby<br />

I hope to see you again<br />

<br />

I need you<br />

(Come on, boy)<br />

Oh, I need you<br />

(We're gonna make a man out of you)<br />

Yes, I need you<br />

To lend a helping hand<br />

(This one training<br />

You're not gonna miss)<br />

<br />

Come on, boy<br />

Whatta mean you've never heard of KP<br />

I don't care if it's 4 in the morning<br />

There is a right way<br />

A wrong way<br />

And there's my way<br />

You'll do it my way<br />

<br />

Come on, boy<br />

On the double<br />

Get in step, boy<br />

Come on, now<br />

March, march<br />

<br />

Your mama's a long ways off, boy<br />

So stop your crying<br />

March<br />

Get in step, boy<br />

Left, right<br />

Left, right<br />

I said get in step, boy<br />

Left
