I was in World War II.
(Hooray!)
I don't know what...thank you very much.
I was not gonna take credit for the entire victory,
folks, but...certainly now that you've recognized the
part that I played, I can hardly lie about it.
I was in Camp Walters, Texas,
for the entire period. Only five miles from a town
called Mineral Wells, which I wish not to describe at this...
(Yeah!)
WAIT A MINUTE "YEAH!" FOR MINERAL WELLS "YEAH"?
Are you from Mineral Wells, sir?
(No...)
Okay...Anyway, I was readin' about these kids that
didn't wanna get drafted, and I thought it would be
a good idea if somebody wrote a song for them to listen
to, and I wrote the following song,
which goes like this. Advice to teenage boys who are about to get drafted.
