Viet Nam - Jimmy Cliff

Hey Vietnam, Vietnam, Vietnam, Vietnam 
Vietnam, Vietnam, Vietnam 

Yesterday I got a letter from my friend fighting in Vietnam 
And this is what he had to say: 
'Tell all my friends that I'll be coming home soon 
My time'll be up some time in June 
Don't forget', he said, 'to tell my sweet Mary 
Her golden lips are sweet as cherry' 

And it came from Vietnam, Vietnam,                                               Vietnam, Vietnam 
Vietnam, Vietnam, Vietnam 

It was just the next day his mother got a telegram 
It was addressed from Vietnam 
Now mistress Brown, she lives in the USA 
And this is what she wrote and  said: 
'Don't be alarmed', she told me the telegram said 
'But mistress Brown your son is dead' 

And it came from Vietnam, Vietnam,                                               Vietnam, Vietnam 
Vietnam, Vietnam - hey - Vietnam 
Somebody please stop that war now! 

Vietnam, Vietnam, Vietnam, Vietnam - oh 
Vietnam, Vietnam - oh
Vietnam, oh oh oh oh  
Somebody please stop it 
Vietnam, Vietnam - oh
Vietnam, Vietnam, oh oh oh oh 
Vietnam - hey - Vietnam - aha
Vietnam - oh oh yeah 
I wanna say now somebody stop that war
Vietnam - oh yeah, aha
