I'd Like To Give My Dog To Uncle Sam
You see, sir, I'm a blind boy, yes I am
I'd like to do my part
To show what's in my heart
And help my country win
This war that we are in
My Rover, he can hear a mile away
And he can see at night as well as day
I'll get along somehow
If my country needs him now
I'd Like To Give My Dog To Uncle Sam

I'd Like To Give My Dog To Uncle Sam
They say they can enlist just like a man
We've walked since early morn'
From way out on the farm
When we heard on the air
They need dogs over there
I've never seen Old Glory wave above
But still I know she's there for me to love
I've told my dog goodbye
I don't mean it if I cry
I'd Like To Give My Dog To Uncle Sam

I'd Like To Give My Dog To Uncle Sam
I'd Like To Give My Dog To Uncle Sam
You see, sir, I'm a blind boy, yes I am
I'd like to do my part
To show what's in my heart
And help my country win
This war that we are in
I've never seen Old Glory wave above
But still I know she's there for me to love
I've told my dog goodbye
I don't mean it if I cry
I'd Like To Give My Dog To Uncle Sam
