Viet Nam War Blues Oblivians

Mama said, "How can you be happy
When your brother's in Vietnam?"
My mama said, "Well, how can you be happy
When your brother's in Vietnam?"
Ahh, how?
I said, "Mama, he might get lucky and win some money
Oh, he got to, ma, bring some money home"
Ahh, how

Here I go!

She said, "How can you doubt your brother?
'Cause you know he's my son, too"
She said, "That ain't no way to talk about your brother
Oh, 'cause you know he's my son, too
Uhh-huh
Well, what if Uncle Sam was to call you, boy?
Well, if Uncle Sam wants to call you, boy
You know, I think I might be so lonesome, I could die"

Watch out, boy, here I go!
