Goodnight Saigon Lyric
Billy Joel
GREATEST HITS VOLUME 1 & II
We met as soul mates On Parris Island We left as
inmates From an asylum And we were sharp As sharp as knives And we
were so gung ho To lay down our lives
We came in spastic Like
tameless horses We left in plastic As numbered corpses And we learned
fast To travel light Our arms were heavy But our bellies were
tight
We had no home front We had no soft soap They sent us
Playboy They gave us Bob Hope We dug in deep And shot on sight And
prayed to Jesus Christ With all our might
We had no cameras To
shoot the landscape We passed the hash pipe And played our Doors
tapes And it was dark So dark at night And we held on to each
other Like brother to brother We promised our mothers we'd
write
And we would all go down together We said we'd all go down
together
Remember Charlie Remember Baker They left their
childhood On every acre And who was wrong? And who was right? It
didn't matter in the thick of the fight
We held the day In the
palm Of our hand
They ruled the night And the night Seemed to
last as long as six weeks On Parris Island We held the coastline They
held the highlands And they were sharp As sharp as knives They heard
the hum of our motors They counted the rotors And waited for us to
arrive
And we would all go down together We said we'd all go down
together Yes we would all go down together
