Here they come again, hop scotching up to my door   One by one again, knockety knock knocking upon my floor   Swinging on my gate, they gain entry by the yard   Pulling at my hair they scream, paint your thoughts upon my card      But not tonight I've got studies to examine   Tomorrow I'll be watching all the Queen's men   A talent contest on Monday with my Uncle Sam   Who now takes up all of my time, he gives me things to do   'Cause he's a wonderful man      But I'm sailing across the sea to see my Uncle Sam   I'm sailing across the sea to be with my Uncle Sam   To be with my Uncle Sam      Silly little sniggers from the women liberators   But I'll stand and hold my post   Polished buttons and erect I'll raise the flag   I'll show those women who's the most      But not tonight I've got studies to examine   Tomorrow I'll be watching all the Queen's men   A talent contest on Monday with my Uncle Sam   Who now takes up all of my time, gives me things to do   He's a wonderful man      But I'm sailing across the sea to see my Uncle Sam   I'm sailing across the sea to be with my Uncle Sam      Sailing across the sea to see my Uncle Sam   I'm sailing across the sea to be with my Uncle Sam      But not tonight I've got studies to examine   Tomorrow, and tomorrow I'll be watching all the Queen's men   A talent contest on Monday with my Uncle Sam   Who now takes up all of my time, he gives me things to do   'Cause he's a wonderful man      Sailing across the sea to see my Uncle Sam   I'm sailing across the sea to be with my Uncle Sam      I'll go sailing across the sea to see my Uncle Sam   I'm sailing across the sea to be with my Uncle Sam      I'll go sailing across the sea to see my Uncle Sam   I'm sailing across the sea to be with my Uncle Sam   I'm sailing across the sea to see my Uncle Sam
