Bukka White - Army Blues Lyrics
When Uncle Sam take all your menAnd boys to warI'm 'onna be just like a coonWhen Uncle Sam take all your menAnd boys to warBoys, I'm 'onna be just like a coonEv'ry mornin' before the moon go downI won't start a-tappin 'fore around I roamUncle Sam leave me aloneI got to watch these pretty womenWhile the other men is goneUncle Sam leave me aloneI got to watch these pretty womenWhile the other men is goneNow, it's one thing I will do, Uncle SamI'll write you when one of these womenTreat me wrongI don't want none a-these womenStart to fuss an fightin' over me'Cause, you know Uncle SamBelieve Bukka goin' behindDon't you women start to fussin'And fightin' over me'Cause Uncle Sam believeBukka goin' behindIf I don't get around to the womenIn the daytimeOld Bukka will be 'round 'fore the sun go downBabe, I don't want ya'all womenStart a-fussin' an fightDon't start a-fussin', an fightin' over meI don't want none-a you women start to fussin'Fightin' over meAll I want you to do is let me take my timeMeet me uptown on a Friday or Saturday, babyI be trampin' on later at Piney downI think I'm gon' have to write Uncle SamTell him to send me one or two more menback behindI think I'm gonna have to start to writin'Uncle SamTell him to send one or two more menback behindI done got to the placeI done got to the place, babyI can't even make it aroundBefo' the sun go downUncle Sam, Uncle SamUncle Sam's train be on the trackearly timeUncle Sam's train, Uncle Sam's trainCome in early in the mornin'It will be on the trackI want you women to go down thereInto Union Station in the mo'ninMake like you be in mournin'Be glad when they gone!~
