She grew up in America, just the girl next door Never thought to question what we were fighting for They sent her off to war and showed her death and pain And the girl next door will never be the same Chorus: Guarding her patients with a 45 Checking the wounded to make sure they're alive By day she's in fatigues and at night she's in a dress She's everybody's savior, the Army combat nurse She told her girlfriends "I'll see you some old day I've joined the Army and they're sending me away" They taught her how to mend a wound and how to tend The sick But nothing could prepare her for all this Bridge: Women at home waiting all alone Women in life trying to do what's right Women in war in the blood and gore Women in death, they die just like the rest A jungle ain't a place for a girl to be alone Surrounded by the enemy with all the soldiers gone Under attack you know she's got to do her best Because she's everybody's savior, the Army combat nurse Back home in civilian life, Army life all done Childhood friends can't understand why she's not any fun But a vision of the wounded still screams inside her brain And the girl next door will never be the same She's everybody's savior but her own, the Army combat Nurse, but who will save her now? (Chaplain's rap) "Before I say grace today I'd like for us to pause for a moment of silence in memory of our friends that were lost this morning , . . let us pray for the food which we are about to receive from your goodness our father we give. . . ." |

I got out of school and I was feeling kinda down, I thought I'd join the Army just to take a look around. I went on down to the recruiter man And that's when all my troubles began. Well, I've been up, down and around This country more than a couple of times, But I never knew until I got into the Army That thinking for yourself was a crime. Get over here, stand over there, Let's see your identification. Shut your mouth, son, get back in line, We're sending you to South East Asia. Well, they gave me some shoes that hurt my feet They gave me some food not fit to eat, They told me that I wasn't fighting alone, They sent me to Saigon and they stayed home. Well, I've been up, down and around This country more than a couple of times, But I never knew until I got into the Army That thinking for yourself was a crime. Get over here, stand over there, Let's see your identification. Shut your mouth, son, get back in line, We're sending you to South East Asia. All right. One, two, three, four, We don't want your fuckin' war, A, B, C, D, Get someone else, hey don't get me, Left, right, left, right, You know the whole damn thing puts me uptight. I done my duty and I fought my fight And I thought I knew I was doing right, But that's all over, I'm free at last, An' if they want any more, they can kiss my ass. 'Cause I've been up and down and around This country more than a couple of times, But I never knew until I got into the Army That thinking for yourself was a crime. Get over here, stand over there, Let's see your identification. Shut your mouth, son, get back in line, We're sending you to South East Asia ? like hell. |
