I just got my army call |
|
And I run down to the army hall. |
|
Sally come a-runnin' like a cannonball |
|
And I told her not to grieve after me. |
|
It's-a when I'm gone, Sally, don't you grieve |
|
It's-a when I'm gone, Sally, don't you grieve |
|
It's-a when I'm gone, Sally, don't you grieve |
|
And I told her not to grieve after me. |
|
I'm a-gonna cross that ocean wide |
|
Army rifle by my side |
|
When Hitler's beat you can be my bride |
|
But I told her not to grieve after me. |
|
It's-a when I'm gone, Sally, don't you grieve |
|
It's-a when I'm gone, Sally, don't you grieve |
|
It's-a when I'm gone, Sally, don't you grieve |
|
And I told her not to grieve after me. |
|
I'm a-gonna jump in a flyin' machine |
|
A-loaded full of this-a TNT |
|
Stop old Hitler what I mean |
|
And I told her not to grieve after me. |
|
It's-a when I'm gone, Sally, don't you grieve |
|
It's-a when I'm gone, Sally, don't you grieve |
|
It's-a when I'm gone, Sally, don't you grieve |
|
And I told her not to grieve after me |
|
A souvenir I'll send to you |
|
Send Hirohito and Hitler, too |
|
That's about all one feller can do |
|
But I told her not to grieve after me |
|
It's-a when I'm gone, Sally, don't you grieve |
|
It's-a when I'm gone, Sally, don't you grieve |
|
It's-a when I'm gone, Sally, don't you grieve |
|
And I told her not to grieve after me |
|
Sally, get a job and save your pay |
|
Work your best for the U.S.A. |
|
Write me a letter 'bout ever' day |
|
And I told her not to grieve after me |
|
Oh, it's-a when I'm gone, Sally, don't you grieve |
|
It's-a when I'm gone, Sally, don't you grieve |
|
It's-a when I'm gone, Sally, don't you grieve |
|
And I told her not to grieve after me |
|
If a blackout comes to the old home town |
|
Sally, won't you pull your curtains down |
|
If a shade goes up and a ship goes down |
|
I told her not to grieve after me |
|
It's-a when I'm gone, Sally, don't you grieve |
|
It's-a when I'm gone, Sally, don't you grieve |
|
It's-a when I'm gone, Sally, don't you grieve |
|
And I told her not to grieve after me |
|
Oh, it's-a when I'm gone, Sally, don't you grieve |
|
It's-a when I'm gone, Sally, don't you grieve |
|
It's-a when I'm gone, Sally, don't you grieve |
|
And I told her not to grieve after me |
