Elvis Presley — G.I. Blues

[Verse 1] They give us a room with a view of the beautiful Rhine They give us a room with a view of the beautiful Rhine But give me a muddy old creek in Texas any old time [Chorus] 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 [Verse 2] 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 [Chorus] 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 [Verse 3] 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 wearing signs saying: "Keepen sie off the grass" [Chorus] 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
