Cassandra Wilson - Vietnam Blues Lyrics

Vietnam vietnam
Everybody cryin' about vietnam
Vietnam vietnam
Everybody cryin' about vietnam
The lonely days are killing me down in Mississippi
Nobody seems to give a darn

Oh god if you can hear my prayer now
Please help my brothers over in vietnam
Oh lord if you can hear my prayer now
Please help my brothers over in vietnam
The poor boys fightin'
Killin' and hidin' all in holes
Maybe killin' their own brother
They do not know

Mister president you always cry about peace
But you must clean up your house before you leave
Oh how you cry about peace
But you must clean up your house before you leave
How can you tell the world how we need peace
And you still mistreat and killin' poor me
