Draft Dodger rang
Oh, I'm just a typical American boy from a typical American town
I believe in God and Senator Dodd and to keep an old Castro down
And when it came my time to serve I knew better dead than red
But when I got to my old draft board buddy, this is what I said Sarge. I'm only 18
I got a ruptured spleen and I always carry a purse. I got eyes like a bat my feet are flat
My asthma's getting worse. Yes, thank you my career my sweetheart dear my poor old invalid and
Besides, I ain't no fool. I'm going to school and I'm working in a defense plan. I
Got a dislocated disc and a wrecked up back
I'm allergic to flowers and bugs and when the bombshell hits again epileptic fits and I'm addicted to a thousand drugs
I got the weakness woes. I can't touch my toes
I can hardly reach my knees and if the enemy came close to me, I'd probably start to sneeze
Yes, I'm only 18. I got a ruptured spleen and I always carry a purse
I got eyes like a bat my feet are flat my asthma's getting worse
Yes, thank you my career my sweetheart dear my poor old invalid and
Besides I ain't no fool. I'm going to school and I'm working in a defense plan. I
Hate Sean Lark, and I hope he dies
But one thing you gotta see that someone's gotta go over there and that someone isn't me
So I wish you well Sarge give him hell kill me a thousand or so
And if you ever get a war without blood and gore, I'll be the first to go. Yes, I'm only 18
I got a ruptured spleen and I always carry a purse. I got eyes like a bat my feet are flat my asthma's getting worse
Yes, thank you my career my sweetheart dear my poor old invalid and besides ain't no fool
I'm going to school and I'm working in a defense plan
