A young man bout 21, no different than you or I

Hes catchin catfish, and gettin drunk

But Uncle Sam called, he called him up

[Am]That young man
[D]Got his life turned upside down
Turned his smile into a frown
Robbed that king of his crown
....................................................G
For an ideal he didnt even know about

He was gamblin at the wagon when that army man showed up
[D]And he flashed that pen and paper

Theres gonna be a big time in the jungle
[Am]Gonna be a firefight
.........................D
Gonna be a rumble
.............................G
Send me out to Vietnam

To fight for an ideal I know nothing about

Oh the drop point was dusty and the drill sergeant was loud

Am......................................................D
Grab your duffle bags, head to the checkpoint
Am ...........................................................D
Welcome to Vietnam, boys, youre in for a hell of a fight

[D]Hurry up and wait, dont sleep late
And learn to hate your brother

Before you hate your foe

On patrol out in the rice fields, them choppers flew low

Glancing for the hand signal to tell you where to go

And he thought about Eutaw and who was to blame
..................................G
