GUEST,Phil d'Conch Origins: Gee But I Wanna Go Home (70* d) ADD Version: Gee Mom, I Wanna Go Home 11 Feb 23


Marching to the barracks for the first time:

Gee Mom, I Wanna Go Home

“Oooooh, the biscuits in the army
They say are mighty fine.
One rolled off the table
And killed a pal o' mine.

Oh I don't want no more of army life,
Gee mom, I wanna go home.

Oh, the chicken in the army
They say is mighty fine.
One jumped off the table
And started markin' time.

Oh I don't want no more of army life,
Gee mom, I wanna go,
Oh mom, I wanna go,
Gee mom, I wanna go ho-o-ome.”
[Transcribed from Winged Victory (film)(1944)[@12:00m]
Lt. Leonard Etienne De Paur (1914–1998)
Sgt. David Daniel Rose (1910–1990)
