| [00:32.98] |
Yeah, I don't know why I'm over here, this job is evil |
| [00:35.65] |
They sent me here to Vietnam to kill innocent people |
| [00:38.21] |
My mother always said, "The president, he doesn't care" |

| [00:56.26] |

| [01:06.79] |
But over here, they droppin' seven million tons of bombs |
| [01:09.10] |
I spent my days dodgin' all these booby-traps and mines |
| [01:11.70] |
And at night, prayin' to God that I get back alive |
| [01:14.26] |
And I'm forced to sit back and wonder |
| [01:17.02] |
Why I was a part of Operation Rolling Thunder |
| [01:19.41] |
In a foxhole with nine months left here |
| [01:22.07] |
Jungle like the fuckin' harbinger of death here |
| [01:24.58] |
I don't wanna be here, I'm scared, I just wanna go home |
| [01:28.69] |
(You fuckin' kiddin' me? Don't be a pussy, don't you love your country?) |
| [01:32.54] |
(I like being here, I'm ready) |
| [01:34.55] |
