《Goodnight Saigon(Vietnam Veterans Version)》歌词

[00:00:01] Goodnight Saigon(Live At Shea 2008) - Billy Joel

[00:00:51] We met as soulmates

[00:00:57] On Parris Inland

[00:01:01] We left as inmates

[00:01:05] From an asylum

[00:01:09] And we were sharp

[00:01:13] As sharp as knives

[00:01:18] And we were so gung ho to lay down our lives

[00:01:26] We came in spastic

[00:01:30] Like tameless horses

[00:01:34] We left in plastic

[00:01:38] As numbered corpses

[00:01:43] And we learned fast

[00:01:47] To travel light

[00:01:51] Our arms were heavy but our bellies were tight

[00:02:11] We had no homefront

[00:02:16] We had no soft soap

[00:02:21] They sent us playboy

[00:02:25] They gave us bob hope

[00:02:29] We dug in deep

[00:02:33] And shot on sight

[00:02:38] And prayed to Jesus Christ with all of our might

[00:02:46] We had no cameras

[00:02:50] To shoot the landscape

[00:02:54] We passed the hash pipe

[00:02:58] And played our Doors tapes

[00:03:02] And it was dark

[00:03:06] So dark at night

[00:03:10] And we held onto each other

[00:03:16] Like brother to bother

[00:03:20] We promised our mothers we'd write

[00:03:28] And we would all go down together

[00:03:36] We said we'd all go down together

[00:03:44] Yes we would all go down together

[00:04:03] Remember Charlie

[00:04:08] Remember Baker

[00:04:12] They left their childhood

[00:04:16] On every acre

[00:04:20] And who was wrong

[00:04:24] And who was right

[00:04:29] It didn't matter in the thick of the fight

[00:04:43] We held the day

[00:04:50] In the palm of our hands

[00:05:00] They ruled the night

[00:05:07] And the night seemed to last as long as six weeks

[00:05:19] On Parris Island

[00:05:23] We held the coastline

[00:05:27] They held the highland

[00:05:31] And they were sharp

[00:05:35] As sharp as knives

[00:05:39] They heard the hum of the mortars

[00:05:44] They counted the rotors

[00:05:48] And waited for us to arrive

[00:05:56] And we would all go down together

[00:06:04] We said we'd all go down together

[00:06:13] Yes we would all go down together
