You gave a gift to me
|
In my young age
|
You sent me overseas
|
And put the fear in me
|
And I ask what for now
|
Why me, why war?
|
And I ask what for now
|
Vietnam War?
|
Spent my time there by the shore
|
|
Oh we got off that boat
|
Charlies everywhere
|
A lotta killin' and dyin'
|
And no one seems to care
|
I ask what for now
|
We say hell no
|
And I ask what for
|
Why me, why war?
|
And I spent my time there by the shore
|
|
Sixty thousand men died
|
While you were here
|
You came into our homes
|
And you took our kids
|
And you ask for more now
|
For this new war
|
And you ask for more now
|
Vietnam War
|
I spent my time there by the shore
|
