Gung Ho Lyrics - The Roches

Gung Ho, is a word I know 

Means things are just beginning 

Birth of a child, the wildness of youth 

And the turf in the first inning 

Coffee in the morning or Chinese herb tea 

The former is the one works best for me 

You cant be Gung Ho if yer hung over 

Broken hearted, beaten down, eatin crow 

Mr. Brown, Gung Ho 

Gung Ho is a tale thats told 

With a see ya later to the fold 

Got my guitar the farther I go 

And I do mean to be bold 

Playin in the subway or a frat party 

I aint gonna be nobodys secretary 

You cant be Gung Ho if you're hung over 

Broken hearted, beaten down, eatin crow 

Mr. Brown, gung ho 

Gung Ho, Im just a ridin high 

Gung Ho, Im not your ordinary guy 

Gung Ho, just dont ask me why 

Im doin' anythin' that 

Im doin, doin, doin, Gung Ho, Gung Ho 

Gung Ho is the thing I got when the 

Girl she got me goin 

Birth of a child, the wildness of youth 

But the bankbook isnt showin 

How am I gonna get to where Im 'spose to be 

A little common sense would be a good thing for me 

You cant be Gung Ho if you're hung over 

Broken hearted, beaten down, eatin crow 

Mr. Brown, Gung Ho 

Gung Ho, I was a ridin high 

Gung Ho, I had me a pie in the sky 

Gung Ho, now Im not sure if I am 

Doin anythin' that Im doin, doin, doin 

Gung Ho, Gung Ho 

Gung Ho is the way I was 

When things were just beginning 

Birth of a child, the wildness of youth 

And the very thought of winning 

Everybody said 

That I would be okay, not one of them 

Standing to this day 

You cant be Gung Ho if you're hung over 

Broken hearted, beaten down, eatin crow 

Mr. Brown, Gung Ho 

Broken hearted, beaten down, eatin crow 

Mr. Brown, Gung Ho 

Broken hearted, beaten down, eatin crow 

Mr. Brown, Gung Ho
