Paroles de Some fool made a soldier of me

I remember when i was a barefooted boy
Climbing in a sycamore tree
But now i'm a little older, got a rifle on my shoulder
Some fool made a soldier of me

Some fool made a soldier of me, ah ha
And i ride in the rough calvary
Got a pretty gal waitin' for me while i rot here in the army
Some fool made a soldier of me

I told her we'd marry and build us a home
And raise us a big family
But she's givin' all her charms to a blue uniform
Some fool made a soldier of me

Some fool made a soldier of me, ah ha
And i ride in the rough calvary
The day's getting' hotter, i'm near out of water
Some fool made a soldier of me

I told general custer i'm dyin' of thirst
And the heat is getting' to me
But he said, "have no fear there's a big river near"
Some fool made a soldier of me

Some fool made a soldier of me, ah ha
And i ride in the rough calvary
We'll get there in the morn to little big horn
Hey, general custer, i think i see an indian over there

Yeah, ask her if she's got a friend for me
Some fool made a soldier of me
