Get up Jimmy Newman, the morning is come. The engines are rumbling, the coffee's all brewed.
|
Get up Jimmy Newman, there's work to be done, and why do you lie there still sleeping?
|
There's a waiting line forming to use the latrine, and the sun is just opening the skies.
|
The breakfast they're serving just has to be seen, and you've only to open your eyes.
|
|
Get up Jimmy Newman, the radio's on, the news is all bad, but it's good for a laugh.
|
The tent flap is loose and the peg must be gone, and why do you lie there still sleeping?
|
The night nurse is gone and the sexy one's here, and she tells us such beautiful lies.
|
Her uniform's tight, on her marvelous rear, and you've only to open your eyes.
|
|
Get up Jimmy Newman, you're missing the fun. They're talking us next, Jim it's time to go home.
|
It's over for us, there's no more to be done, and why do you lie there still sleeping?
|
It's state side for us, Jim, the folks may not know, and we'll let it be such a surprise.
|
They're loading us next, Jim we're ready to go, and you've only to open your eyes.
|
|
And you've only to open your eyes. Oh my God, Jimmy, open your eyes.
