Goodnight Saigon
We met as soul mates 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 tight
We had no home front, 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
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
Yes we would all go down together
Remember Charlie, remember Baker
They left their childhood on every acre
And who was wrong? And who was right?
It didn't matter in the thick of the fight
We held the day in the palm of our hand
They ruled the night, and the night
Seemed to last as long as six weeks...
...On Parris Island
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
And we would all go down together
We said we'd all go down together
Yes we would all go down together

Buenas Noches Saigón
Nos conocimos como almas gemelas en la isla Parris
Salimos como presos de un asilo
Y fuimos filosos; filosos como cuchillos
Y estábamos tan entusiasmados por dar nuestras vidas
Vinimos espáticos como caballos indomables
Nos fuimos en plástico como numerosos cadáveres
Y aprendimos rápido a viajar con rapidez
Nuestros brazos eran pesados pero nuestros estómagos estaban apretados
No teníamos civilización, no teníamos jabón suave
Nos mandaron Playboy, nos dieron Bob Hope
Escavamos profundo y disparamos al instante
Y rezamos a Jesucristo con todas nuestras fuerzas
No teníamos cámaras para fotografiar el paisaje
Fumamos y escuchamos nuestras grabaciones de The Doors
Y estaba oscuro, muy oscuro por la noche
Y nos abrazamos el uno al otro
Como hermano a hermano
Les prometimos a nuestras madres que les escribiríamos
Y caeremos todos juntos
Dijimos que caeríamos todos juntos
Sí, caeríamos todos juntos
Recuerda a Charlie, recuerda a Baker
Dejaron su infancia en cada hectárea
Y, ¿quien estaba equivocado? Y, ¿quién tenía razón?
Eso no importó en lo más reñido de la batalla
Sostuvimos en día en la palma de nuestras manos
Ellos dominaron la noche,
Y la noche parecía duramos al menos seis semanas
… en la Isla Parris
Fuimos por la línea de la costa, que tenían tierras altas
Y eran filosas, filosas como cuchillos
Escucharon zumbido de nuestros motores
Contaron los rotores
Y nos esperaron a que llegáramos
Y caeremos todos juntos
Dijimos que caeríamos todos juntos
Sí, caeríamos todos juntos
