Lyrics
Vietnam
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
It takes warrior to kill 50 men
It takes a gentleman to apologize
And on the way to meet my Filipino son
Well I’m going to celebrate the war we've won
I'm in the finest army I’m a working man
Dropping bombs all over northern Vietnam
Cambodia I got a backup plan
This is what I've learned from war in Vietnam
I’d love to see the red sun rising in Japan
Recall the glory days of dying like a man
With every death is born a brand new life
Master of doublespeak make everything all right
I'm in the finest army I’m a working man
Dropping bombs all over northern Vietnam
Cambodia I got a backup plan
This is what I've learned from war in Vietnam
I'm in the finest army I’m a working man
Dropping bombs all over northern Vietnam
Cambodia I got a backup plan
This is what I've learned from war in Vietnam
Baghdad it's all you, Tehran I want you, Kabul I call you
Tight squeeze in the middle of a jail cell
Don’t think that I forgot our friends in Mexico
Or down in Nicaragua or right here up at home
It’s just that lately I've been ever so busy
Plotting out targets for the next 10 to 15
I'm in the finest army I’m a working man
Dropping bombs all over northern Vietnam
Cambodia I got a backup plan
This is what I've learned from war in Vietnam
I'm in the finest army I’m a working man
Dropping bombs all over northern Vietnam
Cambodia I got a backup plan
This is what I've learned from war in Vietnam
Baghdad it’s all you, Tehran wants you, Kabul I call you
Tight squeeze in the middle of a jail cell!
