Yeah, Uh-huh
Whoo-oo-ooh
Gas Sugar Nylons and Chocolate Bars
Can’t really get ‘em
May as well wish on a star
My Victory Garden won’t grow ‘em
If you got ‘em you better stow ‘em
Deep in the bottom of your cookie jar
It’s our fight too, but what we wouldn’t do
For Gas Sugar Nylons and Chocolate Bars
Whoo-oo-ooh
Four little items that are in short supply
Four little items we gotta have or we’ll die
Sis stood ‘round the corner
But the clerk forgot to warn her
Everything in the store had sold out way before five
It’s our fight too, but what we wouldn’t do
For Gas Sugar Nylons and Chocolate Bars
Whoo-oo-ooh, Whoo-ooh
We have got the Franklin County Ration Card Blues
Just like all our brothers in arms
Gotta drink our coffee only with cream
Can’t grow sugar out on the farm
I got gas and I’m rarin’ to go
But it’s hard to go anywhere my tires are blown
We got the Franklin County G.A. Ration Card Blues
Man, We really need some new shoes
Franklin County G.A. Ration Card Blues
Kinda tired of paying our dues
I been denied! I been approved!
We have really, really got the Ration Card Blues
TRIO: We have got the Franklin County G.A., G.I. Blues
We have got the Franklin County G.A., G.I. Blues
Gas, sugar and chocolate bars, who cares about them
What we got here ladies is a shortage of men
When you’re asked to go to another dance, just make sure you wear some pants
Otherwise you just won’t know who’s leading whom
We got the Franklin County G.A., G.I. Blues
GIRL WITH G.I.: Poor you!
ALL: Just like everybody in town
Franklin County G.A. Ration Card Blues
Kinda tired of paying our dues
It’s our fight too, but what we wouldn’t do for
Gas, UH-HUH, Sugar, YEAH, Nylons AAH!
And chocolate bars
