《Lyndon johnson told the nation(LP版)》歌词

[00:00:00] Lyndon johnson told the nation (LP版) - Tom Paxton
[00:00:08] I got a letter from L B J
[00:00:10] It said this is your lucky day
[00:00:12] It's time to put your khaki trousers on
[00:00:16] Though it may seem very queer
[00:00:17] We've got no jobs to give you here
[00:00:19] So we are sending you to Viet Nam
[00:00:24] Lyndon Johnson told the nation
[00:00:25] "Have no fear of escalation
[00:00:27] I am trying everyone to please
[00:00:32] Though it isn't really war
[00:00:33] We're sending fifty thousand more
[00:00:35] To help save Viet nam from Viet Namese "
[00:00:40] I jumped off the old troop ship
[00:00:41] And sank in mud up to my hips
[00:00:43] I cussed until the captain called me down
[00:00:48] Never mind how hard it's raining
[00:00:49] Think of all the ground we're gaining
[00:00:51] Just don't take one step outside of town
[00:00:55] Lyndon Johnson told the nation
[00:00:57] "Have no fear of escalation
[00:00:59] I am trying everyone to please
[00:01:03] Though it isn't really war
[00:01:05] We're sending fifty thousand more
[00:01:07] To help save Viet nam from Viet Namese "
[00:01:14] Every night the local gentry
[00:01:15] Sneak out past the sleeping sentry
[00:01:17] They go to join the old VC
[00:01:21] In their nightly little dramas
[00:01:23] They put on their black pajamas
[00:01:25] And come lobbing mortar shells at me
[00:01:29] Lyndon Johnson told the nation
[00:01:31] "Have no fear of escalation
[00:01:33] I am trying everyone to please
[00:01:37] Though it isn't really war
[00:01:39] We're sending fifty thousand more
[00:01:41] To help save Viet nam from Viet Namese "
[00:01:47] We go round in helicopters
[00:01:49] Like a bunch of big grasshoppers
[00:01:51] Searching for the Viet Cong in vain
[00:01:55] They left a note that they had gone
[00:01:57] They had to get down to Saigon
[00:01:59] Their government positions to maintain
[00:02:03] Lyndon Johnson told the nation
[00:02:05] "Have no fear of escalation
[00:02:07] I am trying everyone to please
[00:02:11] Though it isn't really war
[00:02:13] We're sending fifty thousand more
[00:02:15] To help save Viet nam from Viet Namese "
[00:02:21] Well here I sit in this rice paddy
[00:02:23] Wondering about Big Daddy
[00:02:25] And I know that Lyndon loves me so
[00:02:29] Yet how sadly I remember
[00:02:31] Way back yonder in November
[00:02:33] When he said I'd never have to go
[00:02:37] Lyndon Johnson told the nation
[00:02:39] "Have no fear of escalation
[00:02:41] I am trying everyone to please
[00:02:45] Though it isn't really war
[00:02:47] We're sending fifty thousand more
[00:02:49] To help save Viet nam from Viet Namese "
