Vietnam Blues Songtext
von J.B. Lenoir
Vietnam Blues Songtext
Vietnam, Vietnam
Everybody cryin′ about Vietnam
Vietnam, Vietnam
Everybody cryin' about Vietnam
Below a lonely day killing me down in Mississippi
Nobody seems to give a damn
Oh, God if you can hear my prayer now
Please help my brothers over in Vietnam
Oh, Lord if you can hear my prayer now
Please help my brothers over in Vietnam
The poor boys fightin′, killin' and hidin' all in holes
Maybe killin′ their own brother, they do not know
Mister President you always cry about peace
But you must clean up your house before you leave
Oh, how you cry about peace
But you must clean up your house before you leave
How can you tell the world how we need peace
And you still mistreat and killin′ poor me?
Everybody cryin′ about Vietnam
Vietnam, Vietnam
Everybody cryin' about Vietnam
Below a lonely day killing me down in Mississippi
Nobody seems to give a damn
Oh, God if you can hear my prayer now
Please help my brothers over in Vietnam
Oh, Lord if you can hear my prayer now
Please help my brothers over in Vietnam
The poor boys fightin′, killin' and hidin' all in holes
Maybe killin′ their own brother, they do not know
Mister President you always cry about peace
But you must clean up your house before you leave
Oh, how you cry about peace
But you must clean up your house before you leave
How can you tell the world how we need peace
And you still mistreat and killin′ poor me?
