Drive On |
| I got a friend named Whiskey Sam |
| He was my boonierat buddy for a year in Nam |
| He said is my country just a little off track |
| Took 'em twenty-five years to welcome me back |
| But, it’s better than not coming back at all |
| Many a good man |
| I saw fall And even now, |
| every time I dream I hear the men |
| and the monkeys in the jungle scream |
| Drive on, don’t mean nothin' |
| My children love me, but they don’t understand |
| And I got a woman who knows her man |
| Drive on, don’t mean nothin', drive on |
| I remember one night, |
| Tex and me Rappelled in on a hot L.Z. |
| We had our 16's on rock and roll |
| But, with all that fire, |
| was scared and cold |
| We were crazy, we were wild |
| And I have seen the tiger smile |
| I spit in a bamboo viper’s face |
| And I’d be dead, but by God’s grace |
| Drive on, don’t mean nothin' |
| My children love me, but they don’t understand |
| And I got a woman who knows her man |
| Drive on, don’t mean nothin', drive on |
| It was a real slow walk in a real 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 |
| I got a little limp now when |
| I walk Got a little tremolo when |
| I talk But my letter read from Whiskey Sam |
| You’re a walkin' talkin' miracle from Vietnam |
| Drive on, don’t mean nothin' |
| My children love me, but they don’t understand |
| And I got a woman who knows her man |
| Drive on, don’t mean nothin', drive on |
