Daddy was a soldier
He taught me about freedom
Peace and all the great things that we
Take advantage of

The look upon their faces
As I treated them with respect, and

This is my Vietnam
I'm at war
Life keeps on droppin' bombs
And I keep score

Momma was a lunatic, yes
She liked to push my buttons
She said I wasn't good enough
But I guess I wasn't tryin'

Never liked school that much
(School that much)
They tried to teach me better

This is my Vietnam
I'm at war
Life keeps on droppin' bombs
And I keep score

This is my Vietnam
I'm at war
(At war)
They keep on droppin' bombs
And I keep score

What do you expect from me?
What am I not giving you?
What could I do for you
To make me okay in your eyes?

This is my Vietnam
(This is my Vietnam)
I'm at war
(At war)
They keep on droppin' bombs
(Droppin' bombs)
And I keep score

This is my Vietnam
I'm at war
Life keeps on droppin' bombs
And I keep score

This is my Vietnam
This is my Vietnam
