This is the Army movie - Opening Chorus lyrics
rate me<br>
You thought that many, many years ago<br>
You saw the last of every soldier show<br>
But here we are, yes, here we are again<br>
A lot of water's gone across the dam<br>
Since we put make-up on for Uncle Sam<br>
To treat you as our fathers treated you then<br>
We were drafted by our President<br>
And we march with banners unfurled<br>
We were drilled and trained to represent<br>
The greatest army in the world<br>
Yes, the greatest army of actors in the world<br>
<br>
Now don't get us wrong<br>
We're not here for long<br>
Our stay in the theater is brief<br>
We're here with the show<br>
To help get some dough<br>
Some dough for the Army Relief<br>
The much-needed Army Relief<br>
<br>
But beneath the powder and beneath the paint<br>
There's a soldier brave and true<br>
If some guy in Congress tells you that we ain't<br>
Let him do what we had to do<br>
And go through what we went through<br>
<br>
