American Defense

No use in sittin' in no tent
No use in having no fairs
This war may last you for years

American defense
Well you use some sense
Just have to take care of your boys

You must raise more produce
Farmers set sail and use
So save allyour worries in toils

No use in save no fairs
No us in setting in no tents
This war may last you for years

We'll the red white and blue
That represents you
You ought to do everything that you can

Buy a war savin' stamps
You men go to their camps
Be brave and take this pen

No use in sittin' in no tent
No use in having no fairs
This war may last you for years

Oh that troubles sometimes
All upset your mind
Well you all know just what to do

Keep pushin, keep shovin'
Don't be angry, be loved
Be a good, fellow, honest and true

No use in sittin' in no tent
No use in having no fairs
This war may last you for years

You can say yes or no
But we got to win this war
Because gentle Mac Arthur is not a friend

They won't be enough japs
To shoot a little game of craps
Because the biggest of them all will be dead

No use in sittin' in no tent
No use in having no fairs
This war may last you for years

This war sure do bother
Our mothers and father
Our sister and brothers too

Our friends and relations
This war been creation
Don't let this worry you

No use sittin' in no tent
Use to having to fairs
This war may last you for years
