What the....Is a going on in Washington...
Well here I sit in Vietnam and I'm wondering why
I was sent half around this world to die
There is just one question that I ask from everyone
What the....Is a going on in Washington...
They won't call this things a war you know these days
But over here they are shooting at us every way
they think we're cracking up if we should help someone (?)
What the....Is a going on in Washington...
Well pull the trigger, kill some more and hear them cry
Leave your buddy back, move up, and let him die
How can I ever tell these things to my son
What the....Is a going on in Washington
What the....Is a going on in Washington
I heard some guys have burnt their draft cards up at home
Don't send them here, 'cause we've got troubles of our own
they probably send them straight to the ...
... whatever is left in Washington
All these people were our friends not long ago
They fought Hitler, Mussolini, and Tōjō
Now our friends are thinning out, what have we done
What the....Is a going on in Washington
