Vietnam Vietnam, everybody cryin' about Vietnam

Vietnam Vietnam, everybody cryin' about Vietnam

The law all the days (?) 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 God 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.
