Thank you Srikanth Uncle

Srikanth Uncle was a fun guy... especially to kids below the age of twelve... like i was when i first met him.. He had this conveyor belt of jokes.. and to be fair to the man the jokes would only makes kid laugh... He could always make that boring party, that we ( my bro and i ) were forced to attend, really great fun.. by telling us jokes... funny stories and best of all...He sang The Army Song....

Chorus
Oh, I don't wanna join the army life
Oh man i wanna go, Woman i wanna go
Show me the way to go home....

Chorus ends
The boots in the army they say are mighty fine.. if you ask for number seven they give you number nine

Chorus
Oh, I don't wanna join the army life
Oh man i wanna go, Woman i wanna go
Show me the way to go home....

Chorus ends
The Coffee in the army they say are mighty fine... if you ask for a cuppa coffee they give you iodine

Chorus
Oh, I don't wanna join the army life
Oh man i wanna go, Woman i wanna go
Show me the way to go home....

Chorus ends
The movies in the army they say are mighty fine... if you ask for Charlie Chaplin they give you Frankenstein

Chorus
Oh, I don't wanna join the army life
Oh man i wanna go, Woman i wanna go
Show me the way to go home....
Song ends

I always sang the chorus... Actually there were more lines to the song... but my memory fails me.. It never fails to remember the good times we had though... Srikanth Uncle passed away a few years back.. he had had a lot of family problems and health problems... but we kids never knew that because he always had that joke to tell... or that story to narrate.. and when he didnt have the jokes or the story.. we always had our Army Song....
