Unknown Artists/Songs On Muzikum - That Crazy War (gezongen door/sung by Dick Unteed) lyrics

Your rating:

Now over there across the sea they've got another war
But oh, I wonder if they know just what they're fighting for
In that war, that crazy war

In 1917, you know, we helped them win their fight
But all we got was a lesson in what Sherman said was right
In that war, that crazy war

I was a simple country lad, I lived down on the farm
I'd never even killed a gnat nor done a body harm
Until that war, that crazy war

One day the sheriff caught me, said "Come along, my son
Your Uncle Sam is needing you to help him tote a gun"
In that war, that crazy war

They took me down to the courthouse, my head was in a whirl
And when the doctors passed on me, I wished I'd been a girl
In that war, that crazy war

They took me out to the rifle range to hear the bullets sing
I shot and shot the whole day long and never hit a thing
In that war, that crazy war

The captain said: "Now fire at will" and I said who is he
The old fool got so raving mad he took a shot at me
In that war, that crazy war

And when we got to sunny France, I looked around with glee
But rain and kilometers was all that I could see
In that war, that crazy war

A cannonball flew overhead, I started home right then
The corporal he was after me, but the general beat us in
In that war, that crazy war.

And now we're back at home again from over there in France
The enemy lost the battle but we all lost  our pants
In that war, that crazy war

Now all we're there in Vietnam, we're in another war
And after fifty years they still don't know what they're fighting for
In that war, this crazy war
