C
I signed up to serve my country, and I mean it when I say:
FC
I'm proud to do my duty for the good ol' USA.
They sent me to an island in the Caribbean sea,
FC
But it ain't no pearl at all, its just another place to be.
AmG6Fmaj7
And I wonder what I'll do again tonight,
AmG6FG
Maybe have a couple beers and try to keep out of fights..
C
And I don't wanna bust your bubble, I don't wanna bring you down,
FCFC
But out here in GTMO, its the only game in town.
C
They promised us new gear, and they promised us new boots,
FC
They promised in 4 months we'd be replaced by new recruits.
I got here in January, thinking I'd be home by spring,
FC
Now its lookin' like I'll need to buy a Cuban christmas tree.
AmG6Fmaj7
Oh Santa, won't you come this way...
AmG6FG
Do you need directions to Guantanamo Bay?
C
I don't wanna bust your bubble, I don't wanna bring you down,
FCFC
But out here in GTMO, its the only game in town.
C
They got the army, navy, air force, and United States marines,
FC
Hell, they even got the Coast Guard looking out for submarines.
Its a homely girl's paradise, that's what they're tellin' me,
FC
But homely's just a state of mind, they both look good to me.
AmG6Fmaj7
Jumpin' off the cliffs into a shark infested bay,
AmG6FG
Dodging jellyfish, its just another fun filled day.
C
I don't wanna bust your bubble, I don't wanna bring you down,
FCFC
But out here in GTMO, its the only game in town.
C
There's 4000 Cubans on the north side of the fence,
FC
Just waitin' for a chance to put their training to the test.
Sometimes I wish they would man, and I'd give that exam.
FC
It'd show em how we do it, when we fight for Uncle Sam.
AmG6Fmaj7
I wonder if the people back home
AmG6FG
Have any idea at all where we've gone.
C
And I don't wanna bust your bubble, I don't wanna bring you down,
FC
But out here in GTMO, its the only game in town.
I don't wanna bust your bubble, I don't wanna bring you down,
FC
But out here in GTMO, its the only game in town.
FC
Out here in GTMO, its the only game in town.
