I see you swinging through the air on a vine
I feel awake and I waste a smile
I like a soldier in the deadly sun
who ain't afraid to cock a loaded gun
in Vietnam
I know we're deep inside the enemy line
and that I could'e picked a much better ime
but you're the one who makes me feel more punk
and why I've come to love the loveless junk
in Vietnam
behind the cover of the camouflage
behind the glory of a losing cause
there is a soldier in the deadly sun
who ain't afraid to cock a loaded gun
in Vietnam
go go ready to go
