		Jimmy Newman - Tom Paxton
    E			A	   E
Get up Jimmy Newman the morning is come
			      F		   E
The engine's are rumbling the coffee's all brewed
			    A	       E
Get up Jimmy Newman there's work to be done
    F			       B
And why do you lie there still sleeping
	  E 			  A
There's a waiting line forming to use the latrine
	E			B
And the sun is just opening the sky
    E				   A	     E
The breakfast they're serving just has to be seen
	   F		     E
And you've only to open your eyes
		       A       E
Get up Jimmy Newman my radio's on
			     F		E
The news is all bad but it's good for a laugh
			       A	   E
The tent flap is loose and the peg must be gone
F			   B
Why do you lie there still sleeping
    E				A
The night nurse is gone and the sexy one's here
	E			B
And she tells us such beautiful lies
    E			   A	      E
Her uniform's tight on her marvellous rear
	   F		     E
And you've only to open your eyes
			   A	       E
Get up Jimmy Newman you're missing the fun
				 F	    E
We're loading the plane Jim it's time to go home
			    A	       E
It's over for us there's no more to be done
    F			       B
And why do you lie there still sleeping
     E			      A
It's stateside for us Jim the folks may not know
      E			  B
We'll let it be such a surprise
	E			  A	   E
They're loading us next Jim we're ready to go
	   F		     E
And you've only to open your eyes
			 A	       E
Get up Jimmy Newman they won't take my word
				  F		E
I said you sleep hard but they're shaking their heads
			A	      E
Get up Jimmy Newman and show them you heard
F			    B
Jimmy just show them you're sleeping
  E			     A
A joke is a joke but there's nothing to gain
	E			     B
Jim I'd slap you but I'm too weak to rise
    E			    A		E
Get up damn it Jimmy you're missing the plane
	   F
And you've only to open your eyes
