Hello Vietnam Songtext
von Johnnie Wright

Kiss me goodbye and write me while I′m gone
Goodbye my sweetheart, hello Vietnam
America has heard the bugle call
And you know it involves us one and all
I don't suppose that war will ever end
There is fighting that will break us up again


Goodbye my darling, hello Vietnam
A hill to take a battle to be won
Kiss me goodbye and write me while I′m gone
Goodbye my sweetheart, hello Vietnam

A ship is waiting for us at the dock
America has trouble to be stopped
We must stop communism in that land
Or freedom will start slipping through our hands

I hope and pray someday the world will learn (goodbye my darling, hello Vietnam)
That fires we don't put out will bigger burn (a hill to take a battle to be won)
We must save freedom now at any cost (kiss me goodbye and write me while I'm gone)
Or someday our own freedom will be lost (goodbye my sweetheart, hello Vietnam)


Kiss me goodbye and write me while I′m gone
Goodbye my sweetheart, hello Vietnam
