Goodnight Saigon(Live At Shea 2008) - Billy Joel[00:00:01]

We met as soulmates[00:00:51]

On Parris Inland[00:00:57]

We left as inmates[00:01:01]

From an asylum[00:01:05]

And we were sharp[00:01:09]

As sharp as knives[00:01:13]

And we were so gung ho to lay down our lives [00:01:18]

We came in spastic[00:01:26]

Like tameless horses[00:01:30]

We left in plastic[00:01:34]

As numbered corpses[00:01:38]

And we learned fast[00:01:43]

To travel light[00:01:47]

Our arms were heavy but our bellies were tight[00:01:51]

We had no homefront[00:02:11]

We had no soft soap[00:02:16]

They sent us playboy[00:02:21]

They gave us bob hope[00:02:25]

We dug in deep[00:02:29]

And shot on sight[00:02:33]

And prayed to Jesus Christ with all of our might [00:02:38]

We had no cameras[00:02:46]

To shoot the landscape[00:02:50]

We passed the hash pipe[00:02:54]

And played our Doors tapes[00:02:58]

And it was dark [00:03:02]

So dark at night[00:03:06]

And we held onto each other[00:03:10]

Like brother to bother[00:03:16]

We promised our mothers we'd write[00:03:20]

And we would all go down together[00:03:28]

We said we'd all go down together[00:03:36]

Yes we would all go down together [00:03:44]

Remember Charlie [00:04:03]

Remember Baker [00:04:08]

They left their childhood[00:04:12]

On every acre[00:04:16]

And who was wrong [00:04:20]

And who was right [00:04:24]

It didn't matter in the thick of the fight[00:04:29]

We held the day[00:04:43]

In the palm of our hands[00:04:50]

They ruled the night[00:05:00]

And the night seemed to last as long as six weeks[00:05:07]

On Parris Island[00:05:19]

We held the coastline[00:05:23]

They held the highland[00:05:27]

And they were sharp[00:05:31]

As sharp as knives[00:05:35]

They heard the hum of the mortars[00:05:39]

They counted the rotors[00:05:44]

And waited for us to arrive[00:05:48]

And we would all go down together[00:05:56]

We said we'd all go down together[00:06:04]

Yes we would all go down together[00:06:13]
