just left school we were sent to fight
in jungles in the dark of night
fighting this war for Uncle Sam
we're just dogs of war in Vietnam

we find no victory in this place 
no smiles for us on any face
don't know what or who to believe
they just want us to leave

roam their streets in battle green
we're to easy to be seen
stand out like a beacon light
an easy target in a deadly fight

in the jungle with open eyes
always awaiting the next surprise
thought we had them on the run
when told it's over this war is done

no glory for us when we returned
protesters our flag they burned
don't know what gives them the right
they weren't there they didn't fight

just left school we were sent to fight
in jungles in the dark of night
fighting this war for Uncle Sam
we're just dogs of war in Vietnam
