He graduated with a degree in poli-sci
Pre-meditated what he would do until he died
and then he faded into an ever rising sky
surfaced in the air force and learned how to fly

chorus:
Mulligan goes to War
Mulligan goes to war
the days are gone
when he can tell you what he's fighting for
Mulligan Goes to war

Flew helicopters with the patriotic grin
built up brick walls
rarely letting people in
he had his pitfalls
and he lived a life of sin
that life is over now
a new one must begin... Yeah

Chorus
Mulligan goes to War
Mulligan goes to war
the days are gone
when he can tell you what he's fighting for
Mulligan Goes to war
we all gotta go sometimes
Da DA DA DA DA HEY HEY

made his living
selling real estate
met his first wife
but she came much to late
to save the low man
who was slowly growing mad
he lost his business the economy went bad... yeah!

Chorus
Mulligan goes to War
Mulligan goes to war
the days are gone
when he can tell you what he's fighting for
Mulligan Goes to war
to war
