I get paid every Monday
I'm not a soldier anymore
I fill up my pockets with coins
Oh my, it's so heavy
Not everyone is wealthy
But I am, me, an old soldier
On Tuesday I go to the city
To meet my drinking pals
To find myself a lady
Young and sweet lady
Not everyone can love
But I can, me, an old soldier
On Friday I'm stuck in the city
I want someone to buy me a beer
All of my friends are broke
Bartender says: "Get lost, you faggot!"
I beat him, as anyone would
Me, an old soldier
On Sunday I sleep in the park
When everyone goes to the church
I sit here and I'm hungry
I can't pray
And there's no place for me in heaven
I'm an old, canned soldier
Recruits, use your brain
Stay away from army
It's still better to just die
Than suffer long hours in forces
And be away for thirty years
Just like me, and old sodier
