letra de england's vietnam - the men of no property

well, good evening, friends, it’s good to be back in the good old u.s.a
where they make d-mn sure to keep all theirs wars thousands of mile away
for i’ve just been across the ocean, to see my family home
and after what i saw there, i never more will roam

well, give me a home where the panthers roam and the weathermen so free
take a walk in the dark around central park, it does not bother me
tear thе country in two, but whatever you do, i’ll stay right wherе i am
for i do not want another trip to england’s vietnam

when we arrived at aldergrove, that’s where the planes do go
it used to be nutts corner, why they changed it, i just don’t know
i was wearing an army jacket, from vietnam it came
when a soldier stuck a gun in my ribs and he said, ‘i know your game’

“oh, where’s your black beret?” he cried, “and your hurley stick, as well?”
i hit him with my camera and like a stone he fell
then i called for a policeman to take this poor man away
saying, this could never happen in the good old usa

well, give me a home where the panthers roam and the weathermen so free
take a walk in the dark around central park, it does not bother me
tear the country in two, but whatever you do, i’ll stay right where i am
for i do not want another trip to england’s vietnam

the policeman grabbed me by the arm saying, “come along with me
for i can tell by the gleam in your eye that you hate democracy.’
you’re a trotskyist from the kremlin, you’re a vatican anarchist spy
you’re a communist from china, a commie from the f.b.i.”
well i know that i had to leave there, i’ll tell you what i done
i slipped five dollars in his hand and i began to run
i walked the streets of belfast, from the new lodge to the falls
watching the rubber bullets goin’ bouncing off the walls
