In The Army Now (Status Quo Cover) Lyrics

A vacation in a foreign land
Uncle Sam does the best he can
You're in the army now
Oh, oh, you're in the army now

Now you remember what your draftsman said
Nothing to do all day just stay in bed
You're in the army now
Oh, oh, you're in the army now

You'll be the hero of the neighborhood
And nobody knows that you left for good
You're in the army now
Oh, oh, you're in the army now

Smiling faces as you wait to land
But once you get there no one gives a damn
You're in the army now
Oh, oh, you're in the army now

Hand grenades flying over your head

Missiles flying over your head
If you want to survive get out of bed
You're in the army now
Oh, oh, you're in the army now
Shots ring out in the dead of night
Sergeant said: "Stand up and fight!"
You're in the army now
Oh, oh, you're in the army now

You're in the army now
Oh, oh, you're in the army now

You've got your orders better shoot on sight
Your finger's on the trigger but it don't seem right
You're in the army now
Oh, oh, you're in the army now

Night is falling and you just can't see
Is this an illusion or reality?
You're in the army now
Oh, oh, you're in the army now

You're in the army now
Oh, oh, you're in the army now

[x3]
In the army
You're in the army now

In the army now!
[?]

You're in the army now
