(male):
Goodbye dear, I'll be back in a year
'cause I'm in the army now
They took my number right out of a hat
And there's nothing a guy can do about that

(female):
But when you get back you'll be all tan and brown
Say couldn't we buy that cottage right up out of town

(male): 
Goodbye dear, I'll be back in a year
Don't forget that I love you

(female):
Don't fear dear I'll be here in a year
'Cause I'm true to the army now

(male):
Ah, what a soldier, you wait and see
Why, I'll be a big gun in the artillery

(female): 
Now honey be sure and keep cozy and warm
Gee, you look cute in the new uniform

(male):
Goodbye dear, I'll be back in a year
Don't forget that I love you

(male):
Goodbye dear, well I'm here for a year
I'm in the army now
But don't you worry, the general and I
are the greatest of pals

(female):
Now [?], don't you lie

(male):
Now he fixed it up so I could have breakfast in bed

(female): 
Well, why are you peeling potatoes instead?

(male): 
Oh, he's just kidding me
Goodbye dear, I'll be back in a year
Don't forget that I

(female: 
Don't forget that I

(duet):
Don't forget that I love you
