Elvis Presley Gi Blues Lyrics

Gi Blues Lyrics

(words & music by Sid Tepper - Roy Bennett)
They give us a room
with a view of the beautiful Rhine
They give us a room
with a view of the beautiful Rhine
Gimme a muddy old creek
in Texas any old time
I`ve got those hup, two, three, four
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`ve got those hup, two, three, four
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 frauleins are pretty as flowers
But we can`t make a pass
The frauleins are pretty as flowers
But we can`t make a pass
Cause they`re all wearin` signs saying:
"Keepen sie off the grass"
I`ve got those hup, two, three, four
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
