Mama told Mary not to go downtown   Too many lovely boys hanging around   Mary didn't listen, she went anyway   There she met a boy who took her away      Soldier soldier don't look down   I'm here for you in every town      Soldier soldier don't look down   There's no sixpack on the ground   Soldier soldier don't look up   There's no whore gone to pick you up      Mama is worried and she gets real loud   Cause soldiers are a dirty crowd   Don't be mad I love him so   It's my life and I have to go      3 months later all was well   In my dreams I hear the wedding bells   6 months later all was done   We had a little son, we're having fun   Mama don't look twice, soldiers can be nice
