This Is The Army, Mr. Jones Lyrics

1946 Broadway
This Is The Army the Musical - This Is The Army, Mr. Jones Lyrics

The song is written by Irving Berlin.

This is the army, Mister Jones        
No private rooms or telephones
You had your breakfast in bed before
But you won't have it there any more

This is the army, Mister Green
We like the barracks nice and clean
You had a housemaid to clean your floor
But she won't help you out anymore

Do what the buglers command
They're in the army and not in a band

This is the army, Mister Brown
You and your baby went to town
She had you worried, but this is war
And she won't worry you anymore

This is the army, Mister Jones
No private rooms or telephones
You had your breakfast in bed before
But you won't have it there any more

This is the army, Mister Green
We like the barracks nice and clean
You had a housemaid to clean your floor
But she won't help you out anymore

Do what the buglers command
They're in the army and not in a band

This is the army, Mister Brown
You and your baby went to town
She had you worried, but this is war
And she won't worry you anymore
No, she won't worry you anymore

This Is The Army the Musical Lyrics

Opening Chorus
This Is The Army, Mr. Jones
I'm Getting Tired So I Can Sleep
I Left My Heart at the Stage Door Canteen
The Army’s Made a Man Out of Me
Mandy
Ladies of the Chorus
That Russian Winter
What the Well Dressed Man in Harlem Will Wear
American Eagles
Head in the Clouds
Stage Door Canteen
Oh! How I Hate to Get Up in the Morning
This Time Is the Last Time
