I Was Only 19(A Walk In The Light Green)

[00:00:00] I Was Only 19 (A Walk In The Light Green) (我只有19岁(绿光下漫步)) - John Schumann and The Vagabond Crew

[00:00:02] Written by:John Schumann

[00:00:12] Mum and Dad and Denny saw the passing out parade at Puckapunyal

[00:00:18] It was long march from cadets

[00:00:22] The Sixth Battalion was the next to tour and it was me

[00:00:25] Who drew the card

[00:00:28] We did Canungra and Shoalwater before we left

[00:00:33] And Townsville lined the footpath as we marched down to the quay

[00:00:39] This clipping from the paper shows us young and strong and clean

[00:00:45] And there's me in my slouch hat with my SLR and greens

[00:00:50] God help me I was only nineteen

[00:01:02] From Vung Tau riding Chinooks to the dust at Nui Dat

[00:01:08] I'd been in and out of choppers now for months

[00:01:13] But we made our tents a home VB and pin-ups on the lockers

[00:01:18] And an Asian orange sunset through the scrub

[00:01:24] And can you tell me doctor why I still can't get to sleep

[00:01:29] And night time's just a jungle dark and a barking M16

[00:01:35] And what's this rash that comes and goes can you tell me what it means

[00:01:41] God help me I was only nineteen

[00:01:52] A four week operation when each step could mean your last one on two legs

[00:01:58] It was a war within yourself

[00:02:03] But you wouldn't let your mates down 'til they had you dusted off

[00:02:08] So you closed your eyes and thought about something else

[00:02:14] Then someone yelled out Contact' and the bloke behind me swore

[00:02:20] We hooked in there for hours then a God almighty roar

[00:02:25] Frankie kicked a mine the day that mankind kicked the moon

[00:02:31] God help me he was going home in June

[00:03:04] I can still see Frankie drinking tinnies in the Grand Hotel

[00:03:10] On a thirty-six hour rec leave in Vung Tau

[00:03:15] And I can still hear Frankie lying screaming in the jungle

[00:03:21] 'Till the M******e came and killed the bloody row

[00:03:27] And the Anzac legends didn't mention mud and blood and tears

[00:03:32] And stories that my father told me never seemed quite real

[00:03:37] I caught some pieces in my back that I didn't even feel

[00:03:43] God help me I was only nineteen

[00:03:52] And can you tell me doctor why I still can't get to sleep

[00:03:57] And why the Channel Seven chopper chills me to my feet

[00:04:04] And what's this rash that comes and goes can you tell me what it means

[00:04:08] God help me

[00:04:12] I was only nineteen
