Redd Evans song

He's 1-A in the army and he's A-1 in my heart
He's gone to help the country that helped him to get a start
I love him so because I know he wants to do his part
For he's 1-A in the army and he's A-1 in my heart

And just in case you're quizzical, I'm gonna tell you now
He passed the toughest physical, he passed it, folks, and how!
For I know why he rates so high on Uncle Sammy's chart
'Cause he's 1-A in the army and he's A-1 in my heart
