C I got a friend named Whisky Sam F He was my boony red buddy for a year in 'Nam F He said 'I think my country got a little off track' C It took him 25 years to welcome it back C But it's better than not coming back at all F Many a good man I saw fall G And even now, sometimes when I dream C I hear the men and the monkeys and the jungle scream Chorus: C Drive on, it don't mean nothing F Children love me but they don't understand G And I got a woman who knows her man C Drive on, it don't mean nothing G7 C It don't mean nothing, drive on I remember one night when Tex and me Rappled in on a hot LZ We had our 16's on rock-and-roll And with all of that fire I was scared and cool I was crazy, and I was wild I had seen the tiger smile I spit in a bamboo viper's face And I'd be dead but by God's grace Chorus It was a long walk in a sad rain And nobody tried to be John Wayne I came home, but Tex did not And I can't talk about the hit he got Now I got a little limp when I walk And I got a little tremolo when I talk But the letter I got from Whisky Sam Said 'you're a walking, talking miracle from Vietnam' Chorus
