Jimmy Newman

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 my 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
Oh 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
Get up Jimmy open your eyes
