Vietnam lyrics

The runway rushed up at me, I felt the wheels touch down
Stood out on the blacktop, and took a taxi into town
Got off down on Main Street, to see what I recognized
All I seen was strange faces, watching a stranger passin' by

Vietnam, Vietnam, I don't man
Back in Vietnam

Went for my job back at the factory, down at the factory
The only thing I heard from the man at the desk
Is, "Son, understand if it was up to me"
'bout half the town's out of work
Ain't nothin' for you here
From the assembly line to the front-line
But I guess you didn't hear"

You died in Vietnam, you died in Vietnam
Now don't you understand, you died in Vietnam

Drive down my neighborhood
See the flags out on the porch
So I went to see my old baby
Down at First and Grand
Her mama told me she ran off
With a singer in a rock 'n' roll band

????
I can see me passin' by

You died in Vietnam, you died in Vietnam
Boy, don't you understand, you died in Vietnam

The runway rushed up at me, I felt the wheels hit down
I stood out on the blacktop, and took a taxi into town
Got off down on Main Street, to see what I could see
All I seen was strangers, watchin' a stranger pass by
And that stranger was me

Vietnam, Vietnam, oh-no man
Vietnam

Went to see my baby, down on First and Grand
To tell her I'd come home from away in Vietnam
Her mama came to the door and told me
Her mama told me she ran away
With a singer in a rock 'n' roll band
She said, "I'm sorry son, but we understand"

You died in Vietnam, you died in Vietnam
Now don't you understand, you died in Vietnam
