When the dance hall girl you banged's in the family way
 
You turned my sister into a whore
With a pair of silk stockings from the P.X. store
Why don't you leave use alone
 
My girlfriend won't talk to me
Since she met with a sailor from the land of the free
I'm tired of being alone
 
I've lost count of the chewing gum that I've had
And vodka-cola make my teeth go bad
We'll handle this on our own
 
Dow Jones going into a stall
Spray paint saying it on every wall
The climb was fine, now it's time to decline and fall
 
Overpaid, oversexed and over here
get smart, gringo, disappear
The Hun's at the gates of Rome
