	作词 : Springsteen
	Lyrics：Bruce Springsteen Music：Bruce Springsteen
	Fifteen years Le Bing Son
	Fought side by side with the Americans
	In the mountains and deltas of Vietnam
	In '75 Saigon fell
	and he left his command
	And brought his family to the promised land
	Seabrook Texas and the small towns
	in the Gulf of Mexico
	It was delta country and reminded him of home
	He worked as a machinist, put his money away
	And bought a shrimp boat with his cousin
	And together they harvested Galveston Bay
	In the mornin' 'fore the sun come up
	He'd kiss his sleepin' daughter
	Steer out through the channel
	And casts his nets into the water
	Billy Sutter fought with Charlie Company
	In the highlands of Quang Tri
	He was wounded in the battle of Chu Lai
	And shipped home in '68
	There he married and worked the gulf fishing grounds
	In a boat that'd been his father's
	In the morning he'd kiss his sleeping son
	And cast his nets into the water
	Billy sat in front of his TV as the south fell
	And the Communists rolled into Saigon
	He and his friends watched as the refugees came
	Settle on the same streets and worked the coast they grew up on
	Soon in the bars around the harbor was talk
	Of America for Americans
	Someone said, 'You want 'em out, you got to burn 'em out'
	And brought in the Texas klan
	One humid Texas night there were three shadows on the harbor
	Come to burn the Vietnamese boats into the sea
	In the fire's light shots rang out
	Two Texans lay dead on the ground
	Le stood with a pistol in his hand
	A jury acquitted him in self defense
	As before the judge he did stand
	But as he walked down the courthouse steps
	Billy said 'My friend, you're a dead man'
	One late summer night Le stood watch along the waterside
	Billy stood in the shadows
	His K-bar knife in his hand
	And the moon slipped behind the clouds
	Le lit a cigarette, the bay was as still as glass
	As he walked by Billy stuck his knife into his pocket
	Took a breath and let him pass
	In the early darkness Billy rose up
	Went into the kitchen for a drink of water
	Kissed his sleeping wife
	Headed into the channel
	And casts his nets into the water
	Of Galveston Bay
