G.I. Blues Lyrics

Give us a room with a view of the beautiful Rhine
Give us a room with a view of the beautiful Rhine
Give me money or a creek in Texas any old time

I got those hut-two-three for an occupation G.I. blues
From my G.I. hair to the heels of my G.I. shoes
And if I don′t go stateside soon I'm gonna blow my fuse

We get hasenpfeffer and black pumpernickel for chow
We get hasenpfeffer and black pumpernickel for chow
I′d blow my next month's pay for a slice of Texas cow

We'd like to be heroes but all that we do here is march
We′d like to be heroes but all that we do here is march
And they don′t give the purple heart for a fallen arch

I got those hut-two-three for an occupation G.I. blues
From my G.I. hair to the heels of my G.I. shoes
And if I don't go stateside soon I′m gonna blow my fuse

The fräuleins are pretty as flowers but we can't make a pass
The fräuleins are pretty as flowers but we can′t make a pass
'Cause they′re all wearing signs saying keep a tear off the grass

I got those hut-two-three for an occupation G.I. blues
From my G.I. hair to the heels of my G.I. shoes
And if I don't go stateside soon I'm gonna blow my fuse

Occupation G.I. blues
Occupation G.I. blues
