Text

The army's not the army anymore

It's better than it's ever been before

The bugler blows, I can't get 'em up

At quarter after seven

But if you're tired, stay right there

Sleep until eleven

Oh, the Army's not the Army anymore

The Army's not the Army anymore

It's better than it's every been before

You used to walk a mile for beans

But now they bring them to ya

And all the Generals say "hello"

As though they really knew ya

Oh, the Army's not the Army anymore

They've got a lot of hostesses

And entertaining these co-eds

Is part of your regular duties

Oh, the Army's not the Army anymore

The Army's not the Army anymore

It's better than it's ever been before

The Seargent isn't tough anymore

He's careful not to bore you

Just tell him when you're peelin' spuds

And he will peel them for you

Oh, the Army's not the Army anymore

No, the Army's not the Army anymore
