When I did first enlist
I tried to stay away
But after you get that kiss
You will miss it
I read all the history books
And I sat with silver screen
And I aways had to look
Singin' na na na na na na na

Major, has this feeling all the time
Major, soldier boys are so, so blind
Major, maybe you're the next in line
Veterans of the game
With their whiskey long­life scars
Some will put the blame
On the pain

I am choosing a life of hate
With destruction down my path
I wanna disappear
Singin' na na na na na na na
Major, has this feeling all the time
Major, soldier boys are so, so blind
Major, your revealing, how I am feeling, trying to
Make
And I can't take it

Stories of their tongues
You can't lose it in your mind
With a bottle in your hand
Touching time
It ain't no paper moon
And I don't wanna a purple heart
Or a suitcase full of regrets
Singin' na na na na na na na

Major, has this feeling all the time
Major, soldier boys are so, so blind
Major, maybe you're the next in line
Next in line
Next in line
Next in line
Next in line to go home
