My grand daddy fought in World War I

Came back proud when he was done

My daddy was proud to be his son

And a heroes welcome home

Found two scrub acres straight up and down

25 miles from the nearest town

Howling of the wind was the only sound

And he bought it on a G.I. Loan

Built a four room house on the side of that
hill

You know, that house is standing still

A place to call his very own

And he bought it on a G. I. Loan

Yeah, he bought it on a G.I. Loan

Then my daddy went off to World War II

Came back proud when he was through

God Bless the Red, White and Blue

And a heroes welcome home

Got a job in the nearest town

Married my Momma and settled down

Found a house on the edge of town

And he bought it on a G.I. Loan

Three bedroom, brick and a concrete drive

Man it's great to be alive

A place to call his very own

And he bought it on a G.I. Loan

Yeah, he bought it on a G.I. Loan

Then I went off to Vietnam

Came back to "who gives a damn"

Not even give the boys a hand

No heroes welcome home

The city streets were filled with fire

My mind was hanging by a wire

A crazy vet no one would hire

And I couldn't get a G.I. Loan

So I ran off to the Delta land

I'm a wild California Delta man

This peace of mind's my very own

Who needs your G.I. Loan

Yeah, Go to hell with your G.I. Loan

All I want is to be left alone
