Drive On (alternate lyrics)

[00:06.06] Well I got a friend named Whiskey Sam
[00:08.66] He was my boonierat buddy for a year in Nam
[00:11.84] He said I think my country got a little off track
[00:14.41] It took 'em twenty-five years to welcome me back
[00:19.68] Bu, it's better than not coming back at all
[00:23.11] Many a good man I saw fall
[00:25.72] And even now, every time I dream
[00:28.34] I hear the men and the monkeys in the jungle scream
[00:31.14] Drive on, it don't mean nothin'
[00:34.21] My children love me, and they understand
[00:37.45] And I got a woman who knows her man
[00:39.98] Drive on, it don't mean nothin', it don't mean nothin'
[00:45.23] Drive on
[00:48.55]
[00:52.76] I remember one night, Tex and me
[00:55.85] Walked right up on 2 V.C.
[00:58.39] But we had our 16's on rock and roll
[01:01.52] And we separated them from their souls
[01:06.76] I was crazy and I was wild
[01:08.77] And I have seen the tiger smile
[01:12.35] I spit in a bamboo viper's face
[01:15.36] And I'd be dead, but by God's grace
[01:17.70] Drive on, it don't mean nothin'
[01:20.88] My children love me, and they understand
[01:24.03] And I got a woman who knows her man
[01:26.30] Drive on, it don't mean nothin', it don't mean nothin'
[01:31.67] Drive on
[01:34.90]
[01:38.85] Well, a mortar fell 20 feet away
[01:42.12] And I carry shrapnel, to this day
[01:45.10] I came home, but tex did not
[01:47.95] And I can't talk about the hit he got
[01:52.61] But I got a little limp now when I walk
[01:55.47] And I got a little tremolo when I talk
[01:58.41] But I finally found out who I am
[02:01.26] I'm a walkin' talkin' miracle from vietnam
[02:03.98] Drive on, it don't mean nothin'
[02:07.09] My children love me, and they understand
[02:10.18] And I got a woman who knows her man
[02:12.50] Drive on, it don't mean nothin', it don't mean nothin'
[02:18.03] Drive on
[02:20.37]
