G.I. Jive
This is the G. I. JiveMan aliveIt starts with the bugler blowin' reveille over your bed when you arriveJack, that's the G. I. JiveRoodley-tootJump in your suitMake a saluteBootAfter you wash and dressMore or lessYou go get your breakfast in a beautiful little cafe they call "The Mess"Jack, when you convalesceOutta your seatInto the streetMake with the feetFeetIf you're a P-V-T, your dutyIs to salute to L-I-E-U-TBut if you brush the L-I-E-U-TThe M-P makes you K-P on the Q-TThis is the G. I. JiveSongtexteMan aliveThey give you a private tank that features a little device called "fluid drive"Jack, after you reviveChuck all your junkBack in the trunkFall on your bunkClunkThis is the G. I. JiveMan aliveThey give you a private tank that features a little device called "fluid drive"Jack, if you still surviveChuck all your junkBack in the trunkFall on your bunkClunkSoon you're countin' jeepsBut before you count to fiveSeems you're right back diggin' that G.
