I’m Just Trying To Be To Be A Father
And Send My Child Support With Love

I’ve Got Kids In 14 Countries
At Least The Ones That I Know Of
C
Up and at’um in the morning,
With a bitch, a moan and gripe,
D
Can’t afford to be late to work again,
Probably lose another stripe.
G
I don’t do it for the money,
Oh that’s subsistence pay.
D
But I hate giving to the galley,
But they just take it anyway.
C
It is the life that I have chosen,
To be the few, the proud, the brave.
D
Now I’m standing here getting my ass chewed,
Cause for once I forgot to shave.
G
I can’t call in drunk on Monday,
When I downed so much I puked.
D
I just sleep through my duty days,
And sometimes on watch too.
C
You can bet that I’ll be ready,
When the group heads to the bar.
D
I get wasted, I get arrested,
And I puked some in the car.
G
But I’ll always Sweep My P-Ways,
When Chief says do it now!
D
It takes one guy to do the job,
I need four to tell me how.
C
Oh, and I don’t want to work today,
But if work it has to be.
D
Well I’ll drag my ass to Quarters,
So they can read me the POD.
G
I’m an American Sailor in the USN,
D
Beside my shipmates and shitbags,
That always seem to find ways in.
C
When liberty is put out for me,
I will always get my fight
G
And I’m out here at the whorehouse,
A
To Get Some Ass Tonight
