[Verse 1] Am I got a letter from L.b.J Dm It said, "This is your lucky day" Am E7 Am E7 It's time to put your khaki trousers on Am Though it may seem very queer Dm We've got no jobs to give you here Am E7 Am So we are sending you to Vietnam [Chorus] F C And Lyndon Johnson told the nation Dm Am Have no fear of escalation E7 Am I am trying everyone to please F C Though it isn't really war Dm Am We're sending fifty thousand more E7 Am E7 To help save Vietnam from Vietnamese [Verse 2] Am I jumped off the old troop ship Dm And sank in mud up to my hips Am E7 Am E7 I cussed until the captain called me down Am Never mind how hard it's raining Dm Think of all the ground we're gaining Am E7 Am Just don't take one step outside of town [Chorus] F C And Lyndon Johnson told the nation Dm Am Have no fear of escalation E7 Am I am trying everyone to please F C Though it isn't really war Dm Am We're sending sixty thousand more E7 Am E7 To help save Vietnam from Vietnamese [Verse 3] Am Every night the local gentry Dm Slip out past the sleeping sentry Am E7 Am E7 They go to join the old V.C. Am In their nightly little dramas Dm They put on their black pajamas Am E7 Am And come lobbing mortar shells at me [Chorus] F C And Lyndon Johnson told the nation Dm Am Have no fear of escalation E7 Am I am trying everyone to please F C Though it isn't really war Dm Am We're sending seventy thousand more E7 Am E7 To help save Vietnam from Vietnamese [Verse 4] Am We go round in helicopters Dm Like a bunch of big grasshoppers Am E7 Am E7 Searching for the Viet Cong in vain Am They left a note that they had gone Dm They had to get down to Saigon Am E7 Am Their government positions to maintain [Chorus] F C And Lyndon Johnson told the nation Dm Am Have no fear of escalation E7 Am I am trying everyone to please F C Though it isn't really war Dm Am We're sending eighty thousand more E7 Am E7 To help save Vietnam from Vietnamese [Verse 5] Am Well, here I sit in this rice paddy Dm Wondering about Big Daddy Am E7 Am E7 And I know that Lyndon loves me so Am Yet how sadly I remember Dm Way back yonder in November Am E7 Am When he said I'd never have to go [Chorus] F C And Lyndon Johnson told the nation Dm Am Have no fear of escalation E7 Am I am trying everyone to please F C Though it isn't really war Dm Am We're sending a hundred thousand more E7 Am E7 To help save Vietnam from Vietnamese
