The Thingts I'Ve Seen

Ooooh the things I’ve seen Are not so adorable Actually they are quite horrible Bloody wounds In the middle of June I pray every day For the blue and the gray I hope this war will be over soon Or I just might become a loon Ooooh the things i've seen Blood, guts, broken bones The sound of soldier’s mone It’s so sad tears come to my eyes I ask myself “why ooooh why” Each day soldier’s get shot Every time in a different spot I must treat them all Big or small Ooooh the things I’ve seen I know the odds are very slim But I help all of them I want to make every one happy Really quick and snappy Maybe I could I think I should I should call my helpful service the Red Cross That would be nobody’s loss Ooooh the things I’ve seen My service would give people blood they need This system would be free no need to beg or plead I truly do hope my idea will work The excitement makes me jerk Ooooh the things I will see
