E
Here they come again
A E
Hop scotching up to my door
E
One by one again
A E
Knockety knock knocking upon my floor
[Verse 2]
E
Swinging on my gate
A E
They gain entry by the yard
E
Pulling at my hair they scream
A E
Paint your thoughts upon my card
[Pre-Chorus]
B E B E
But not tonight I've got studies to examine
B E B E
Tomorrow I'll be watching all the Queen's men
B E B
A talent contest on Monday with my Uncle Sam
B
Who now takes up all my time he gives me things to do
B
'cause he's a wonderful man
[Chorus]
E
But I'm sailing across the sea
A E
To see my Uncle Sam
E
I'm sailing across the sea
A E
To be with my Uncle Sam
A E
To be with my Uncle Sam
[Verse 4]
E
Silly little sniggers from the women liberators
A E
But I'll stand and hold my post
E
Polished buttons and erect I'll raise the flag
A E
I'll show those women who's the most
[Pre-Chorus]
B E B
But not tonight I've got studies to examine
B E B
Tomorrow I'll be watching all the Queen's men
B E B
A talent contest on Monday with my Uncle Sam
B
Who now takes up all my time he gives me things to do
B
'cause he's a wonderful man
[Chorus to fade]
E
But I'm sailing across the sea
A E
To see my Uncle Sam
E
I'm sailing across the sea
A C F C F C
To be with my Uncle Sam
E
Sailing across the sea
A E
To see my Uncle Sam
E
I'm sailing across the sea
A E
To be with my Uncle Sam
E
I'm sailing across the sea
A E
To be with my Uncle Sam
E
I'm sailing across the sea
A E
To be with my Uncle Sam
