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
