#1.

C
They give us a room with a view of the beautiful Rhine,

     F                                           C
They give us a room with a view of the beautiful Rhine,

        G                  F         C
Gimme a muddy old creek in Texas any time!



CHORUS:

C                                              C7
I got the hup, two, three, four, occupation GI blues.

        F                             C
From my GI hair to the heels of my GI shoes,

         G                   F                       C
and if I don't go state-side soon, I'm gonna blow my fuse.




(The chords for the rest of the verses are same as #1.)



#2.


We get hassenfeffer amd black pumpernickel for chow.


We get hassenfeffer amd black pumpernickel for chow.


I'd blow my next months pay for a slice of Texas cow.




CHORUS:



#3.


We like to be heroes but all that we do here is march.


We like to be heroes but all that we do here is march,


And they dont give the purple heart for a fallen arch.




CHORUS:




#4.


The Frauleins are pretty as flowers but we cant make a pass.


The Frauleins are pretty as flowers but we cant make a pass,


Cause they're all wearing signs saying,


'Keep it to your...off the grass.'



CHORUS:



A sixties smash from Kraziekhat.
