nancy anderson - the saddest gal what am lyrics

Loading...

[female singer]:
army came, took my flame
my man done changed and how?
he cooks and cleans and does latrines
i guess he doesn’t need me now

he used to like my cookin’, now he likes this thing called “spam”
it comes in a tin!
and how he [?] before his army exam. wow!
now when he’s home on leave
that brute’s polite as politeness can be
instead of romance i get salutes
or he sits and fondles his army boots!

he used to smother me like honey on a honey ham!
i’m saddest gal what am
i lost my man to uncle sam

he used to be a scrawny 98 pound ball of nerves
he loafed the day away a snacking on my.. cherry preserves!
he isn’t scrawny now, god bless!
his thighs are the size of a tree!
his shoulders are brawny, oh yes!
but it ain’t for me, it’s for uncle s

i miss the man who was a lion to my baby lamb!
i’m the saddest gal what am
i lost my man to uncle…

dear uncle sam
i know you’re tall and manly with a fine set of whiskers
but ain’t 15 million men enough for you?
do you have to take mine too?
whisk him halfway around the world
and give him pretty jewelry like silver stars and gold medals?
good lord sam there’s no one left to dance with!

[various cheers from charlie company]

[background singers]:
he used to whisper tender nothings ‘neath the harvest moon

[female singer]
i miss my dumb, clumsy oaf!

[background singers]
now all he talks about are fellas in his army platoon

[female singer]:
doesn’t he care about this? or this?

[background singers]
he does the laundry now!
cooks too!

[female singer]
his meatloaf is better than mine!

[background singers]
it’s true

[female singer]
oh i’m in a quandary!

[background singers]
do tell!

[female singer]
i’m blue! should i throw this lug out for someone new?

[background singers]
but everywhere you look, the army’s pulled the same old scam

[female singer]
some scam!

[background singers]
she’s the saddest, saddest, gal what am

[female singer]
sad as peanut b-tter, minus jam

[background singers]
used to call her gorgeous, now it’s ma’am

[female singer]
i lost my man, to a man, named uncle…
oh well, if you can’t beat them! women’s army corp here i come!

[all]:
uncle sam!
