Private John Q.
Well, I read in the papers and I see it on the televison
Everybody's scared about the World War III
Here I am a single boy, unemployment and everything
Somebody better stop and worry about me
Well, can't you just see me now, chin up chest out
A hup two, three, four, all day through
Everybody seems to be worried about a somethin' other
Who's gonna worry about Private John Q, rumbumbaduba
Sometimes I get disheartened and try hard not to think about it
Heaven knows it's hard to keep from lettin' it get me down
But I'll stand proud when everybody else will be
Runnin' helter shelter for a shelter underground
Well, can't you just see me now, chin up chest out
A hup two, three, four, all day through
Everybody seems to be worried about a somethin' other
Who's gonna worry about Private John Q, rumbumbaduba
When I was a little boy I used to sit and dream of travelin'
To lotsa foreign countries on a sight seein' tours
The way it's lookin' now I can stop savin' money maybe
Go free sponsored by a Third World War
Well, can't you just see me now, chin up chest out
A hup two, three, four, all day through
Everybody seems to be worried about a somethin' other
Who's gonna worry about Private John Q, rumbumbaduba
Well, can't you just see me now, chin up chest out
A hup two, three, four, all day through
Everybody seems to be worried about a somethin' other
Who's gonna worry about Private John Q, rumbumbaduba
Everybody's scared about the World War III
Here I am a single boy, unemployment and everything
Somebody better stop and worry about me
Well, can't you just see me now, chin up chest out
A hup two, three, four, all day through
Everybody seems to be worried about a somethin' other
Who's gonna worry about Private John Q, rumbumbaduba
Sometimes I get disheartened and try hard not to think about it
Heaven knows it's hard to keep from lettin' it get me down
But I'll stand proud when everybody else will be
Runnin' helter shelter for a shelter underground
Well, can't you just see me now, chin up chest out
A hup two, three, four, all day through
Everybody seems to be worried about a somethin' other
Who's gonna worry about Private John Q, rumbumbaduba
When I was a little boy I used to sit and dream of travelin'
To lotsa foreign countries on a sight seein' tours
The way it's lookin' now I can stop savin' money maybe

Well, can't you just see me now, chin up chest out
A hup two, three, four, all day through
Everybody seems to be worried about a somethin' other
Who's gonna worry about Private John Q, rumbumbaduba
Well, can't you just see me now, chin up chest out
A hup two, three, four, all day through
Everybody seems to be worried about a somethin' other
Who's gonna worry about Private John Q, rumbumbaduba
