Just seen Bob Dylan on TV at Newport and he did a sort of half talking song with just strumming which straight away brought up a memory of another similar number not by him, which I used to know and love way back either late fifties or early sixties about a lad going into the army.

Trouble is, age has affected the memory bank and all I can recall is part of a verse which went,

we went up and down and round and round
'til the blood in ma head was beginning to pound
and ma legs were beginning to free at the ends
and I felt like shooting meself....or the sergeant

Part of another verse was about his girl with the line,

she said she'd wait for me till hell froze......sure musta bin a cold winter

I am hoping there are some old fogeys like me out there in Mudland who might be having better luck with their memory banks and can put me out of my misery.

I also (don't) remember a similar one that was out around the same time that was banned over here in UK about a drunken driver who ran his children down, which may or may not have been by the same artiste but I could be getting even more confused now.

Somebody....PLEASE HELP. Thanks,
