Grandpa told me bout a fella he knew, it was back in '72
Burnt his draft card, tore it in two,
1a or 4f
1a meant you were Army bound
4f meant you weren't too sound
Either way, you were going down, 1a or 4f

Dose-e-do put a rifle in his hand
Send him off to a foreign land
Death chant singin' on the treble clef
1a or 4f

The sky is darker with the Winds of Change
Our boys fightin' in a place so strange
Bush & Chenney are the men to blame,
1a or 4f
Servin' our country, with all they got
stranded in place that's oh so hot
Have to say I respect em alot. 1a or 4f

Dose-e-do put a rifle in his hand
Send him off to a foreign land
Death chant singin' on the treble clef
1a or 4f

Modern day soldiers, servin' their time
riskin' their lives on the frontline
Give em credit and time to unwind - 1a or 4f

Dose-e-do put a rifle in his hand
Send him off to a foreign land
Death chant singin' on the treble clef
1a or 4f, 1a or 4f
