Lyrics
  • But there is one thing I can’t remedy, When he shimmies all his medals start in tickeling me, I’m glad my Daddy’s in a uniform. Verse: And ev’ry time he kisses me, I start to think of infantry, I know that some Sunday morning, Wedding bells will chime. And we’ll be happy, he helped win the war, And with his medals on galore, We’ll Springdive to the parson’s door, “Oh Captain!” Refrain: I’m simply crazy ‘bou
  • I’m Crazy About My Daddy (In a Uniform) Verse: There was a boy I used to know, With me he never had a show, Until he went in the Army, And fought “Over There” And just as soon as we had Victory, My Honey Boy came back to me, And now I’m happy as can be “My Hero!” Refrain: I’m simply crazy ‘bout my Daddy, I love him in his uniform, He has military eyes, All my feelings mobilize He learn’d a lot of new manoeuvers While he was out in France. When I kiss Daddy, He puts me right in a trance. What a boy! What a boy! He fills my Yankee heart with joy His kisses gas me just like chloroform
