Vietnam Blues - Kris Kristofferson[00:00:00]

I was out on the leave at the time just duckin' the fog nosin' around like a[00:00:05]

Hungry dog[00:00:09]

In that crazy place called Washington DC[00:00:09]

I saw a crowd of people on the White House lawn all carrying signes about[00:00:15]

VietNam[00:00:19]

So I went over to see what was goin' on[00:00:21]

It was a strange looking bunch but then I never could understand some people[00:00:24]

Oh a fellow came to me with a list in his hand he said we're gatherin' names to[00:00:36]

Send[00:00:40]

The telegram of sympathy then he handed me a pen[00:00:41]

I said I reckon this is goin' to kids and wives[00:00:47]

My friends over there who're givin' their lives[00:00:49]

He said ah ah buddy this is goin' to Ho-Chi-Min[00:00:52]

I said Ho-Chi who he said Ho-Chi-Min people's leader North VietNam[00:00:57]

Oh I wasn't really sure I was hearin' him right[00:01:07]

I though I'd better move before I got in a fight[00:01:10]

Cause my ears were hurtin' and my ball started hit my lick[00:01:13]

Then I thought of another telegram that I've just read[00:01:18]

Tellin' my buddy's wife that her husband was dead[00:01:20]

It wasn't too long till I was feelin' downright sick[00:01:24]

Another held the sign that said we won't fight[00:01:29]

I thought to myself boy ain't that right[00:01:31]

To leave a lot of our soldiers die instead[00:01:35]

I said it's a shame that every man who ever died up there that far off land[00:01:39]

Was dyin' for that you wouldn't have to wake up dead[00:01:44]

Course he looked at me like I was kinda crazy just another warmonger[00:01:48]

Oh I left that place and I went downtown and hit first bar that I'd found[00:02:00]

To cool myself off and pacify my brain[00:02:06]

You see I was on orders to VietNam little old place just north to Saigon[00:02:10]

Had about an hour to catch myself a plane[00:02:17]

So all I mean to say is I don't like dyin' either but man I ain't gonna crawl[00:02:22]
