Protest song Goodnight, SaigonBilly Joel lyrics and chords"
Our arms were heavy But our bellies were tight We had no homefront We had no soft soap They sent us playboy They gave us bob hope We dug in deep And shot on sight And prayed to Jesus Christ With all of our might We had no cameras To shoot the landscape We passed the hash pipe And played our Doors tapes And it was dark So dark at night

Goodnight Saigon in the Style of "Billy Joel" with lyrics (with lead vocal) YouTube
We passed the hash pipe. And played our Doors tapes. And it was dark. So dark at night. And we held on to each other. Like brother to brother. We promised our mothers we'd write. And we would all go down together. We said we'd all go down together.

Goodnight Saigon Lyrics. We met as soulmates On Parris Island, We left as inmates, From an asylum. And we were sharp, As sharp as knives. And we were so gung ho to lay down our lives. We came in spastic, Like tameless horses. We left in plastic, As numbered corpses. And we learned fast, To travel light. Our arms were heavy, But our bellies were.

We held the coastline They held the highlands And they were sharp As sharp as knives They heard the hum of our motors They counted the rotors And waited for us to arrive. Then goes into the closing chorus: And we would all go down together We said we'd all go down together Yes we would all go down together.
