Up In The Morning #2
Up in the morning ‘fore the break of day
And I don’t like it no damn way
Eat my breakfast too damn soon
Hungry as hell…By noon
Went to the mess sergeant on my knees
“Mess daddy, mess daddy feed me please”
Mess daddy looked at me with a grin
“If you wanna be First Cav (whatever unit) you gotta be thin.”
I said “hey mess daddy won’t you look at you
You could stand to lose a few!
Eating those burgers and eating those fries
And that big gut is your only prize
