recording of 1944
from Five Guys Named Moe: The Best of Louis Jordan and his Tympany Five,
(Carmen)
This is Carmen Cavellero. Now Louis and the boys dish up something which probably won't take up as much time as the title which is - and boy this is really a title - quote:
"My feet are killing me marching in the Infantry Blues" unquote...
(Louis:)
I got those "gee my feet are killin' me, since I'm in the infantry" blues
I got those "gee my feet are killin' me, since I'm in the infantry" blues
I walked so doggone much, I can't get my poor feet out of my shoes
I got those "roll two blankets in my pack, don't know when I'm comin' back" blues
I got those "roll two blankets in my pack, don't know when I'm comin' back" blues
The blankets ain't so tough, but what gets me is that extra pair shoes
I gotta hike ev'ry mornin', hike ev'ry night
Come back on the weekend, go out and see the sights
Yes, yes, but I can't help it I guess
I gotta take it like a soldier, 'cause I got those infantry blues
Here is the table of contents.
