I DON'T KNOW WHERE I'M GOING BUT I'M ON MY WAY
(George Fairman,   1917)


Goodbye everybody I'm off to fight the foe 
Uncle Sammy is calling me so I must go 
Gee I'm feeling fine don't you wish that you were me? 
For I'm sailing tomorrow over the deep blue sea.

Take a look at me I'm a Yankee thro' and thro' 
I was born on July the Fourth in ninety two 
And I'll march away with a feather in my hat, 
For I'm joining the army what do you think of that?

And I don't know where I'm going but I'm on my way
For I belong to the regulars I'm proud to say 
And I'll do my duty-uty night or day 
I don't know where I'm going but I'm on my way.
