Mother, I´m going to join the Air Force today
I don´t care what the neighbors may say
But I´m going to join the Air Force today

Mother, I don´t care what my father might think

Perhaps it´s going to drive him to drink
But I don´t care what my father might think

Don´t ask me why, it´s my mind and it´s right
Don´t ask me why, it´s my mind
It´s better, it´s better than being alone
Alone on the ground, now I find

Mother, I´ve got to join the Air Force, you see
I´ve seen my friends and they all agree
That´s it´s better than joining the Army or going to sea

Mother, I´ve got to join the Air Force, you see
I´ve seen my friends and they all agree
That´s it´s better then joining the Army or going to sea

Mother
Mother
