VIETNAM- Jimmy Cliff
Hey!
CHORUS:
Vietnam, Vietnam, Vietnam, Vietnam
Vietnam, Vietnam, Vietnam
Yesterday I got a letter from my friend fighting in Vietnam
And this is what he had to say
Tell all my friends that I'll be coming home soon
My time will be up sometime in June
Don't forget he said, to tell my sweet Mary
Her golden lips as sweet as cherries
And it came from ...CHORUS
It was just the next day his mother got a telegram
It was addressed from Vietnam
Now, Mistress Brown, she lives in the U.S.A.
And this is what she wrote and said
"Don't be alarmed" she told me the telegram read
"But Mistress Brown, your son is dead"
And it came from ...CHORUS
(
F)
Somebody please stop that war now! ...SOLO
