Here's my transcription of the film scene at YouTube:


SIX JERKS IN A JEEP
As sung by the Andrews Sisters in the film "Private Buckaroo" (1942)
(Words and music by Sid Robin)

Beep, beep! Beep, beep!

Choo-choo to Broadway! Boo, Cincinnati!
In a jeep that was built for the six of us.
Beep, beep! Beep, beep!
This is a taxicab to Hackensack
We're goin' up to camp and back
An' we're ready.

We're six jerks in a jeep,
Six creeps in a jeep that leaps.
Now here we come, beep, beep!
We're six jerks in a jeep.

We're six WAACs in a hack,
Six WAACs here to send you, Jack.
Now look here, Max, no cracks!
We're six WAACs in a hack.

The jeep goes jumpin' an' a-bumpin' along.
Gonna knock you right off your seats,
Till we come rompin' an' a-stompin' a song.
Dig it with a reet beat!

We're six jerks in a jeep,
Six bleeps in a jeep that weeps.
Now here we go, beep, beep!
We're six jerks in a jeep.

The jeep goes a-jumpin' along.
Gonna knock you right off your seats.
Here we come, stompin' along,
Just a-rompin' along in our jeep.

Beep, beep! Toot, toot! La-da-da-da.
Beep, beep! Toot, toot! La-da-da.

We're six heels on wheel,
Schlemiels on a wheel that will reel.
We're lookin', lookin' for a meal.
We're six heels on a wheel.

We're six jerks in a jeep.
Six of us WAACs in a hack that will leap like a jeep.
Now here we come, beep, beep!
All heels, schlemiels, on a wheel that reels.

We're six jerks in a jeep, beep, beep, beep!
Six bleeps in a jeep that weeps.
Now here we go, beep, beep!
Here we go, all six jerks in a jeep.
