Still In Saigon
Got on a plane in 'Frisco* And got off in Vietnam I walked into a different world The past forever gone
I could have gone to Canada Or I could have stayed in school But I was brought up differently I couldn't break the rules
Thirteen months and fifteen days The last ones were the worst One minute I'd kneel down and pray And the next I'd stand and curse
No place to run to Where I did not feel that war When I got home I stayed alone And checked behind each door
Cuz I'm still in Saigon Still in Saigon I am still in Saigon In my mind
The ground at home was covered in snow And I was covered in sweat My younger brother calls me a killer And my daddy calls me a vet
Everybody says I'm someone else And I'm sick and there's no cure Damned if I know who I am Find more lyrics at ※ Mojim.com There was only one place I was sure
When i was still in Saigon Still in saigon I am still in saigon In my mind
Every summer when it rains I smell the jungle, I hear the planes I can't tell no one, I feel ashamed Afraid some day I'll go insane
That's been ten long years ago And time has gone on by Now and then I catch myself Eyes searching through the sky
All the sounds of long ago Will be forever in my head Mingled with the wounded cries And the silence of the dead
'Cuz I'm still in Saigon Still in Saigon I am still in Saigon In my mind
I am still in Saigon I am still in Saigon Yes, I'm still in Saigon In my mind
