You Dont Have To Be In The Army

Mungo Jerry

Capo on 2 Intro = verse 1 Well, your girlfriend takes you round to her house and you meet her folks But they say that your hair's too long and you're not their kind of bloke They grab you by the collar and they throw you through the door You don't have to be in the army to fight in the war verse 2 Well, you're working very hard to get promotion at your job But arrive late one morning just because you missed the bus The foreman says, You're fired, 'cause your punctuality's poor You don't have to be in the army to fight in the war verse 3 Then you go into a hotel to get put up for the night But they say that you can't stay there, just because your shirt ain't white You're tired and you're hungry and you cannot walk no more You don't have to be in the army to fight in the war Music only as per verse chords verse 4 Ain't no money, ain't no woman, ain't no roof above your head So you lay down in the park and you wish that you were dead The fuzz says you are trespassing and kicks you in the jaw You don't have to be in the army to fight in the war Outro The fuzz says you are trespassing and kicks you in the jaw You don't have to be in the army to fight in the war You don't have to be in the army to fight in the war (to fade)
