A vacation in a foreign land.
Uncle Sam does the best he can,
You're in the army now
Ohooh you're in the army, now
Now you remember what the draftman said
"nothin' to do all day but stay in bed"
You're in the army now
Ohooh you're in the army, now
You're in the army now
Ohooh you're in the army, now
You'll be the hero of the neighbourhood
Nobody knows that you've left for good
You're in the army now
Ohooh you're in the amry, now
Smiling faces on the way to 'Nam
But once you get there no one gives a damn
You're in the army now
Ohooh you're in the army. now
You're in the army now
Ohooh you're in the army, now
Handgrenades flying over you head
Missiles flying over your head
If you wanna survive, get out of bed
You're in the army now
Ohooh 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
Ohooh you're in the army, now
You're in the army now
Ohooh you're in the army, now
You've got your orders to shoot on sight.
Your finger's on the triger but it don't seem right
You're in the army now
You're in the army, now
Night is falling and you just can't see
Is this illusion or reality
You're in the army now
Ohooh you're in the army, now
You're in the army now
Ohooh you're in the army, now
Ohoooh ohoooh
Ohooh ohoooh
Ohoooh ohoooh
Ohooh ohoooh
