Willing Conscript - Pete Seeger (皮特·西格)[00:00:00]

Written by：TOM PAXTON[00:00:00]

Oh sergeant I'm a draftee and I've just arrived in camp[00:00:05]

I've come to wear the uniform and join the martial tramp[00:00:10]

And I want to do my duty but one thing I do implore[00:00:14]

You must give me lessons sergeant for I've never killed before[00:00:19]

To do my job obediently is my only desire[00:00:25]

To learn my weapon thoroughly and how to aim and fire[00:00:30]

To learn to kill the enemy and then to slaughter more[00:00:35]

I'll need instruction sergeant for I've never killed before[00:00:39]

Oh there are rumors in the camp about our enemy[00:00:46]

They say that when you see him he looks just like you and me[00:00:51]

But you deny it sergeant and you are a man of war[00:00:56]

So you must give me lessons for I've never killed before[00:01:00]

Now there are several lessons that I haven't mastered yet[00:01:06]

I haven't got the hang of how to use the bayonet[00:01:11]

If he doesn't die at once am I to stick him with it more[00:01:15]

Oh I hope you will be patient for I've never killed before[00:01:20]

The hand grenade is something that I just don't understand[00:01:27]

You've got to throw it quickly or you're apt to lose your hand[00:01:31]

Does it blow a man to pieces with it's wicked muffled roar[00:01:36]

Oh I've got so much to learn because I've never killed before[00:01:41]

Oh I want to thank you sergeant for the help you've been to me[00:01:49]

For you've taught me how to slaughter and to hate the enemy[00:01:53]

And I know that I'll be ready when they march me off to war[00:01:58]

And I know that it won't matter that I've never killed before[00:02:02]

And I know that it won't matter that I've never killed before[00:02:07]
