Hymn #5
|
|
I wrote my Baby from Vietnam
And that is what I said
I want to see
you, you know that I want to see you
I, yes I do now, I want to see
you
Yes, I do
Sleeping in this __________________ cold
I had a
dream last night
I dream I saw you
You know that I, yes I did,
dream, yeah, I saw you
I wanna say that I dream I saw you
Yes, I
do
I want somebody to tell my mother
And go down in Georgia and
tell my father
That I'm way over here
Crying in these trenches
covered with blood
But one thing that I know
There’s no tomorrow
There’s
no tomorrow
There’s no tomorrow
_________________
And I want
everybody to hear the sound of my voice this evening
To help me sing
this Hymn no. 5
I want to do a moan one time
Mmm mmm mmm
Sometimes
I wonder
I wonder what was that I ever did
I tried to be a good
father
I did the best that I could
And I wonder who want to take
care of my kids
I’m a long way from home, children
But I want the
world to know that
One thing that I did I’m gone for all good
