Oh Gunny is there a tent for me,
in the bivouac of the forgotten?
For I've just got back from the desert sands,
Fighting for Halliburton

No, You can share this grate with me,
and a bottle too cheep to mention
For the cost of the war that we fought
Was deducted from our pension

Oh, Gunny, all those things we've done,
will haunt my darkest dreams
And now I've lost those few things I had
Is this what M.I.A. means?

There's Bill out here, who in Viet Nam
Had a silver star pinned on him
And Sparrow fought in Panama
And the first Gulf war brought us big Jim

Where are the folks, who called for war
When we are cold and broken
They're urging young folks to go and die
Or return and be forgotten.
