Daily Free Press (Kinston, N. C.) (Apr. 27, 1914):

"Soon the trumpets will play, 'You're in the army now, you're not behind the
plow.'"

Kane [Pa.] Republican (Aug. 17, 1916) [pretty clearly bowdlerized]:

"You're in the Army now,
You're not behind the plow;
You may keep your health,
But you'll never get wealth,
You're in the Army now."

Atlanta Constitution ((Oct. 24, 1916):

"You're in the Army now,
You're not behind the plow;
You're always broke,
You're ring's in soak --
You're in the Army now."

Washington Times (Nov. 20, 1916):

"After sounding pay call, the buglers played a little ditty known as, 'You're in the army now, you're not behind the plow, you base-born boob the probabilities of your becoming wealthy are most remote, you're in the army now.' This is not a verbatim copy of the words, but it as near a verbatim copy as is printable."
