Vietnam Blues (1966)
I was on leave at the time just ducking the fog Nosing around like a hungry dog In that crazy place called Washington DC I saw a crowd of people on the White House lawn All carrying signs about Vietnam So I went over to see what was going on
It was a strange looking bunch but then I never could understand some people
Well a fella came to me with a list in his hand He said we're gathering names to send a telegram Of sympathy but he handed me a pen I said I reckon this is going to the kids and the wives Of my friends over there who have given their lives And he said uh-uh buddy this is going to Ho-Chi-min
I said Ho-Chi-who? He said Ho-Chi-Min people's leader North Vietnam
Well I wasn't real sure I was hearing him right But I thought I better move before I got in a fight Cause my ears were hurting and my pulse started hitting a lick Then I thought about another telegram that I just read 更多更詳盡歌詞 在 ※ Mojim.com 魔鏡歌詞網 Telling my buddy's wife that her husband was dead And it wasn't too long before I was feeling down right sick
Another held a sign that said we won't fight And I said boy ain't that right You'd rather let a soldier die instead I said it's a shame that every man Who ever died up there in that far off land? Is dying so you won't have to wake up dead
Course he looked at me like I was crazy just another war monger
Well I left that place and I went downtown Hit the first bar that I found Cool myself off pacify my brain You see I was on orders to Vietnam Little old place just north of Saigon Had about an hour to catch myself a plane So all I mean to say is I don't like dying either But man I ain't gonna crawl
