I want you to hear what I hear, I hear some explosions and a lot of bombs and guns shooting, lets go over to Vietnam...
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 Lord, if you can hear my prayer now please help my brothers over in Vietnam
Oh Lord, 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
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.
Tell me, the Civil Rights Bill was killed in the House
Tell me, the Civil Rights Bill was killed in the House
People let me tell you about me beliefs
I never did believe the Bill was alive.
Vietnam, Vietnam, everybody cryin' about Vietnam
Vietnam, Vietnam, everybody cryin' about Vietnam
Mr. President, if you don't want to give us our civil rights
Why do you send us in Vietnam to fight?
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 Lord, 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.
