John Edmond - Blue Job
FF C majorC G+G C majorC
C majorC G+G
Sometimes I wish I was a blue job up in the sky
G+G C majorC
I wouldn't have to walk if I could fly
FF C majorC
But I'll be a brown job until I die
G+G C majorC
With 10 years to go in the RLI
FF C majorC G+G C majorC
G+G C majorC
The sergeant that signed me up
G+G C majorC
Had a face like the back of a truck
G+G C majorC
A augmentedA tattoo on his knee
G+G C majorC
And legs like a mugla tree
FF C majorC
And the medic that did my test
G+G C majorC
He left me standing in my vest
FF C majorC
And then when I didn't see
G(hold) C majorC
He stabbed me with the T.A.B.
C majorC G+G
Sometimes I wish I was a blue job up in the sky
G+G C majorC
I wouldn't have to walk if I could fly
FF C majorC
But I'll be a brown job until I die
G+G C majorC
With 10 years to go in the RLI
FF C majorC G+G C majorC
G+G C majorC
Down at the quarter master store
G+G C majorC
I said I'd take size 4
G+G C majorC
They gave me size 3 for sports
G+G C majorC
It was a pair of open leg shorts
FF C majorC
I was in the cook house queue
G+G C majorC
Waiting for my beans and stew
FF C majorC
The cook just winks at me
G(hold) c
And slips the blue stone in my tea
C majorC G+G
Sometimes I wish I was a blue job up in the sky
G+G C majorC
I wouldn't have to walk if I could fly
FF C majorC
But I'll be a brown job until I die
G+G C majorC
With 10 years to go in the RLI
FF C majorC G+G C majorC
G+G C majorC
Standing on parade
G+G C majorC
Never get a bit of shade
G+G C majorC
Out in the blazing sun
G+G C majorC
With the temperature of 101
FF C majorC
And you know there is nothing worse
G+G C majorC
Than doing the assault course
FF C majorC
When the sweat is running free
G(hold) C majorC
And it smells like a chibuli
C majorC G+G
Sometimes I wish I was a blue job up in the sky
G+G C majorC
I wouldn't have to walk if I could fly
FF C majorC
But I'll be a brown job until I die
G+G C majorC
With 10 years to go in the RLI
FF C majorC G+G C majorC
G+G C majorC
We had a contact the other day
G+G C majorC
But the terrors all ran away
G+G C majorC
We were firing the M.A.G.
G+G C majorC
from the hip like Audie Murphy
G+G C majorC
So if I go up in a puff of smoke
G+G C majorC
It's better than being a slow
G+G C majorC
Or a fuzz from the PSAP
G+G C majorC
I'd very much rather be me
C majorC G+G
Sometimes I wish I was a blue job up in the sky
G+G C majorC
I wouldn't have to walk if I could fly
FF C majorC
But I'll be a brown job until I die
G+G C majorC
With 10 years to go in the RLI
FF C majorC G+G C majorC
FF C majorC G+G C majorC
