Bobby "Blue" Bland - Army Blues

Sunrise this morning
That awful day has come
Yes, sun rose this morning
That awful day has come

Uncle Sam has got me
Ain't having no more fun

Got the blues, baby
Got this blood? down on me blues
Yeah, got the blues, baby
Got this blood? got down on me blues

Uncle Sam done got me
That is the awful news

I'm leaving you now
But I'll shoot my way home to you
Yeah I'm leaving you now
But I'll shoot my way home to you

I'll be seeing you baby
When my army life is through
Ooh-oo-oo-oo
