I told her no

Baby you know I don't wanna go

Justine I ain't going

Down to no Red Cross store

She come down Justine

Tell me I wanna talk with you

In just a little while

Ain't you going down and

Fight for your wife and child

I told her no

Baby you know I don't wanna go

Justine I ain't going

Down to no Red Cross store

She come down here and she shook my hand

She said Daddy

I want you to go down there

Fight me like a man

I told her no

Baby you know I don't wanna go

Justine I ain't going

Down to no Red Cross store

She said the Red Cross people

They treat you mighty fine

They mixing everything up with whiskey and wine

I told her no

Baby you know I don't wanna go

Justine I ain't going

Down to no Red Cross store

She come down here

I told her no

Baby you know I don't wanna go

Justine I ain't going

Down to no Red Cross store

She come down here and

She fell down on her knees

I said baby

For your butter and cheese

I told her no

Baby you know I don't wanna go

Justine I ain't going

Down to no Red Cross store

She said Daddy

I just come down here to tell you so

You better go running down to

That Red Cross store

I told her no

Baby you know I don't wanna go

Justine I ain't going

Down to no Red Cross store
