Goodnight Saigon[00:00:01]

We met as soul mates[00:00:46]

On Parris Islands[00:00:52]

We left as inmates[00:00:57]

From an asylum[00:01:01]

And we were sharp[00:01:06]

As sharp as knives[00:01:10]

And we were so gung ho[00:01:14]

To lay down our lives[00:01:18]

We came in spastic[00:01:23]

Like tameless horses[00:01:28]

We left in plastic[00:01:32]

As numbered corpses[00:01:36]

And we learned fast[00:01:41]

To travel light[00:01:45]

Our arms were heavy[00:01:50]

But our bellies were tight[00:01:53]

We had no home front[00:02:11]

We had no soft soap[00:02:17]

They sent us Playboy[00:02:21]

They gave us Bob Hope[00:02:25]

We dug in deep[00:02:30]

And shot on sight[00:02:34]

And prayed to Jesus Christ[00:02:38]

With all of our might[00:02:42]

We had no cameras[00:02:47]

To shoot the landscape[00:02:52]

We passed the hash pipe[00:02:56]

And played our Doors tapes[00:03:00]

And it was dark[00:03:04]

So dark at night[00:03:08]

And we held on to each other[00:03:12]

Like brother to brother[00:03:18]

We promised our mothers we'd write[00:03:22]

And we would all go down together[00:03:30]

We said we's all go down together[00:03:37]

Yes we would all go down together[00:03:46]

Remember Charlie[00:04:05]

Remember Baker[00:04:11]

They left their childhood[00:04:15]

On every acre[00:04:19]

And who was wrong [00:04:23]

And who was right [00:04:27]

It didn't matter in the thick[00:04:31]

Of the fight[00:04:35]

We held the day[00:04:45]

In the palm[00:04:52]

Of our hand[00:04:57]

They ruled the night[00:05:02]

And the night[00:05:09]

Seemed to last as long as[00:05:13]

Six weeks on Parris Islands[00:05:18]

We held the coastline[00:05:24]

They held the highlands[00:05:28]

And they were sharp[00:05:32]

As sharp as knives[00:05:36]

They heard the hum of our motors[00:05:40]

They counted the rotors[00:05:45]

And waited for us to arrive[00:05:49]

And we would all go down together[00:05:57]

We said we'd all go down together[00:06:05]

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