Johnny Jones was a first class private
In the army last year
Now he's back to business in his father's place
Sunday night I saw him with a smiling face
When I asked him why felt so happy
Johnny chuckled with glee
He winked his eye and made this reply
Something wonderful has happened to me
I've got the guy
Who used to be my Captain
Working for me
He wanted work
So I made him a clerk
In my father's finary
And bye and bye
I'm gonna have him
Wrapped in work
Up to his brow
I make him open the office
Every morning at eight
I'll come around about four hours late
Everything comes to those who wait
I've got my Captain working for me now
He's not worth what I have to pay him
But I'll never complain
I've agreed to give him fifty dollars per
It's worth twice as much
To hear him call me Sir
While I sit in my cosy office
He's outside working hard
Out in the hall at my beck and call
With a feather duster standing on guard
I've got the guy
Who used to be my Captain
Working for me
He made me stay
In the kichen all day
Now he's do my happy
And bye and bye
I'm gonna have him wrapped in work
Up to his brow
When he comes into the office
He must get on his feet
Stands at attention make a dream
Who was it said revenge is sweet
I got my Captain working for me now
I got my Captain working for me
Captain working for me
Ca-captain working for me now
