A vacation in the foreign land
Uncle Sam does the best he can
You're in the army now (whoa whoa)
You're in the army, now
Now you remember what the draft man said
"Nothin' to do all day but stay in bed"
You're in the army now (whoa whoa)
You're in the army, now
You're in the army now (whoa whoa)
You're in the army, now
You'll be the hero of the neighborhood
Nobody knows that you left for good
You're in the army now (whoa whoa)
You're in the army, now
Smiling faces on the way to Nam
But once you get there no one gives a damn
You're in the army now (whoa whoa)
You're in the army, now
You're in the army now (whoa whoa)
You're in the army, now
(Da da da da dam daam)
(Da da da da dam daam)
(Da da da da dam daam)
(Da da da da dam daam)
Hand grenades flying over your head
Missiles flying over your head
If you wanna survive
Get out of her bed
You're in the army now (whoa whoa)
You're in the army, now
Shots ring out in the dead of night
The sergeant calls "Stand up and fight!"
You're in the army now (whoa whoa)
You're in the army, now
You're in the army now (whoa whoa)
You're in the army, now
You've got your orders
To shoot on sight
Your finger's on the trigger
But it don't seem right
You're in the army now (whoa whoa)
You're in the army, now
Night is falling and you just can't see
Is this solution a reality?
You're in the army now (whoa whoa)
You're in the army, now
You're in the army now (whoa whoa)
You're in the army, now
(Da da da da dam daam)
(Da da da da dam daam)
(Da da da da dam daam)
(Da da da da dam daam)
