Thread Name: Lyr Req: Southeast Asian Joan of Arc
Subject: Need Lyrics/ Southeast Asian Joan of Arc
Back in the early 70's my boyfriend used to sing a protest song (I >guess< you could call it a protest song)that his brother in from duty in Vietnam taught him. I It was about protesters in saigon lighting themselves on fire to protest the war. The chorus goes like this: So , there she goes, up in smoke/burnin' broad just ain't no joke/but in this world she's made her mark/a Ssoutheast Asian Joan of Arc..

Does anybody know of a recording or the lyrics to this song? Thanks in advance. Lorie
