Verse 1:
Well he smoked tHose Camel cigarettes about three packs a day
Nicotine stains on his fingers when he`d stretch them out to play That old `Midnight special` is one he loved to do
Then he`d sing `I`m walking the floor over you
`Verse 2:
TV preachers and welfare checks for him just had no place
But he`d take his time to tune real good when he sang `Amazing Grace` He`d say boys I`m old and crazy but I still give a damn
And I still think the boys got screwed over in Vietnam
Chorus:
He`d drag out that old uniform
And say `they used to call me slim`
He never could get it buttoned up
But the pride looked good on him
He still feels the way he felt
Over forty years ago
Here`s to the old man
Here`s to G.I. Joe
Verse 3:
He only sang the old songs, he`s standing still in time
`My Phillipino baby`, right there on his mind
Then he`d talk about the big one, the war we didn`t lose
He`d pick a little bit like Travis `Re-Enlistment blues`
