each time Tim is gone I end up with one or two songs that just strike me and I listen to them over and over - and this deployments song is.......

Home is where the army allows me to live with my husband

Well I quit school in the tenth grade and I grew out my hair. I got me a job doin' lawn mower repair. I met an army
recruiter down at the Winn-Dixie. He said son you've no future, pack up and go with me.
Well the first place we landed was a base called Balad. They convoyed our asses to a 10 acre FOB. With my boots and my
cover and an old M-16, two bottles of water and a cold MRE.
(Chorus)
Oh, you meet lots of new friends and you're sure to get paid. We'll show you the world and we'll teach you a trade. It's not
a job, it's an adventure. Oh yes sir I got that, ohh but you never told me I'd get my ass shot at. You never told me I'd get
my ass shot at.
The first night in combat we went on patrol. They ambushed our convoy and we chased the ******** We found them all hidin' in
the water ditches. And we took aim and killed all them son of a *****es.
(Chorus)
Oh, you meet lots of new friends and you're sure to get paid. We'll show you the world and we'll teach you a trade. It's not
a job, it's an adventure. Oh yes sir I got that, oh but you never told me I'd get my ass shot at. You never told me I'd get
my ass shot at.
Walked in on my buddy with a female MP. Ugliest woman that you've ever seen. He said why are you laughin', you've got
lots of nerve. Over here in the desert, we grade on the curve.
(Chorus)
Oh, you meet lots of new friends and you're sure to get paid. We'll show you the world and we'll teach you a trade. It's not
a job, it's an adventure. Oh yes sir I got that, oh but you never told me I'd get my ass shot at. You never told me I'd get
my ass shot at.
(Then the Marines come in) "Oh you never told me we'd get his ass shot at.
