 Struggling with My Uncle? Become a better singer in 30 days with these videos!

A letter came today from my draft board 
With trembling hands I read the questionnaire 
It asked me lots of things about my mamma and poppa 
Now that ain't what I call exactly fair 
So I'm headed for the nearest foreign border 
Vancouver may be my kind of town 
Cause they don't need the kind of law and order 
That tends to keep a good man underground 
A sad old soldier once told me a story 
About a battlefield that he was on 
He said a man should never fight for glory 
He must know what is right and what is wrong 
So I'm headed for the nearest foreign border 
Vancouver may be my kind of town 
Cause they don't need the kind of law and order 
That tends to keep a good man underground 
Now I don't know how much I owe my uncle 
But I suspect it's more than I can pay 
He's asking me to sign a three year contract 
I guess I'll catch the first bus out today 
So I'm headed for the nearest foreign border 
Vancouver may be my kind of town 
Cause they don't need the kind of law and order 
That tends to keep a good man underground
