Chorus:
I’m gonna put my name down, brother,
Where do I sign?
Each and every month
I lay my money on the line.
Gotta keep those tanks a-rolling,
The airplanes a-humming and the dollars a-coming,
And I’m gonna put my name down.
I got a brother in the infantry,
I thought you knowed.
I got a brother in the infantry,
He’s a-way down that road.
I got a brother in the infantry
And he smokes cigarettes same as me,
And I’m gonna put my name down.
I got a brother in the British fleet,
I thought you knowed.
I got a brother in the British fleet,
He’s a-way down that road.
I got a brother in the British fleet,
He can use all the food he can eat,
And I’m gonna put my name down.
I got a brother on a Chinese farm,
I thought you knowed.
I got a brother on a Chinese farm,
He’s a-way down that road.
I got a brother on a Chinese farm,
And he needs bandages for this arm,
And I’m gonna put my name down.
I got a brother on the road to Rome,
I thought you knowed.
I got a brother on the road to Rome,
He’s a-way down that road.
I got a brother on the road to Rome,
And I want to see that boy come home,
And I’m gonna put my name down.
I got a brother in Stalingrad,
I thought you knowed.
I got a brother in Stalingrad,
He’s a-way down that road.
I got a brother in Stalingrad,
He lost his home and all he had,
And I’m gonna put my name down.
We’re gonna lay old Hitler low,
I thought you knowed.
We’re gonna lay old Hitler low,
Way down that road.
We’re gonna lay old Hitler low,
With greenback bullets from the CIO,
And I’m gonna put my name down.VIEW COMPLETE FEWER LYRICS
