Come on all of you big strong men,

He's got himself in a terrible jam
G
Way down yonder in Vietnam
E7 A
So put down your books and pick up a gun,
D G
We're gonna have a whole lotta fun.
Chorus:
A7 A#7 D
And it's one, two, three,
D7 G
What are we fighting for?
D
Don't ask me, I don't give a damn,
G
Next stop is Vietnam;
A7 A#7 D
And it's five, six, seven,

Open up the pearly gates,

Well there ain't no time to wonder why,

Whoopee! we're all gonna die.

G
Your big chance has come at last.

The only good commie is the one that's dead

You know that peace can only be won
D G
When we've blown 'em all to kingdom come.
[Chorus]

Come on Wall Street, don't move slow,
G
Why man, this is war au-go-go.
D

Just hope and pray that if they drop the bomb,
D G
They drop it on the Viet Cong.
[Chorus]

To have your boy come home in a box.
