Stay close by me baby, don't leave me for a single day.
Stay close by me baby, don't leave me for a single day.
I've got a feelin' Uncle Sam's gonna call me and I'll soon be miles and miles away.
I don't wanna leave you baby, but it looks like daddy's got to go.
I don't wanna leave you baby, but it looks like daddy's got to go.
There's no peace on earth and there's hell everywhere you go.
From 18 to 35 it didn't even cross my mind.
From 18 to 35 it didn't even cross my mind.
But from 20 to 44, look like everybody's got to go.
Dreamed last night I signed my name. Man says, Please raise your right hand.
Dreamed last night I signed my name. Man says, Please raise your right hand.
From 20 to 44, I know I'm headed for No Man's Land.
So much I want to tell you baby, but my heart can't stand the strain.
Don't let my mother and dad, don't let them come to the train.
To think of leaving you baby, it chills the blood down in my vein.
