Now, he didn't ask to go But Ol' Sammy called his number He boarded that old Greyhound bus And said goodbye to his mother Headed for Fort Benning, Georgia Basic training in the summer He said "I was young and tough But that ol' drill sergeant was tougher" Yellin, y'all gonna learn how to suffer I'm gonna make a man of all you chumps They shaved his head and gave him a number U.S. 53435319 In army green with an M-16 In 1965 He was fighting for me Way before my time When he sees Ol' Glory raised He still cries like it's 1965 Yeah, 1965 Now he didn't ask to go But them Hueys dropped him off, and That's when the enemy got real Body bags headed for coffins He didn't know how much being an American would cost him He said "we were young and we were rough But sometimes those Viet Cong were also" And they sure knew how to suffer We were all married to our guns The fear of death, and a number U.S. 53435319 In army green with an M-16 In 1965 He was fighting for me Way before my time When he sees Ol' Glory raised He still cries like it's 1965 '65, oh And then one day his little grandson jumped up on his lap Saw a bunch of medals that were in a frame And said, "Were you in the war grandpa?" He said "Yeah" He said "Were you scared? Did you kill anybody?" Nah "How'd you do it?" He just laughed and said "Keep your head down And keep your gun up A little bit of sense And a whole lotta luck Is all a man in this here world Can hope for" He said "Keep your head down And keep your gun up A little bit of sense And a whole lotta luck And as many prayers As you can say to the Lord" U.S. 53435319 In army green with an M-16 In 1965 He was fighting for me Way before my time When he sees Ol' Glory raised He still cries, like it's 1965 Keep your head down And keep your gun up (1965) A little bit of sense And a whole lotta luck (1965) Is all a man in this here world Can hope for (1965) He said Keep your head down (1965) And keep your gun up A little bit of sense And a whole lotta luck And as many prayers As you can say to the Lord
