Lyrics:
The soldier boy in Hanoi Got by by staying high Back in '68 It was the only way that he could cope You learned to kill or you learned to die The strong and the stoned seem to survive So between the bong and the blood and the bullets He chose to live while he smoked his hope At 21, he laid down his gun A hero in Nixon's lie There was pressure on the president To bring the boys back home Because he'd played his part They gave him a broken purple heart Then they cut him loose to find his way Soon forgotten and alone The veteran of the war But wars are all the same Another pawn, another believer Another loser in the game But losers learn to be winners When they learn to refuse to play And now he's never looking back (Never looking back) At the va His old friends had found a new flame And the white lady was her name They made the introduction They taught him how to connect Columbia to Peru He was the best at flying through Wearing Guccis on his feet And gold around his neck One night it all came down When he was Miami bound He took a fall from a 747 Behind his mule And though it took some time To find the Judas who dropped the dime He bailed out long enough And he wasted the fool The veteran of the war But wars are all the same Another pawn, another believer Another loser in the game But losers learn to be winners When they learn to refuse to play And now he's never looking back (Never looking back) At the dea When he finally made parole He left the last of his mortal soul In the solitary heart Of a Florida cell But he knew he wasn't beat His education was complete From the lesson learned From yet another lifetime in hell Looking back for one last time Thinking 'bout how he'd bought up all their lines And paid through the nose For a lovely bunch of lies He found he was his only friend Bound to escape the bitter end Left alone again, he started pushing hard for paradise The veteran of the war But wars are all the same Another pawn, another believer Another loser in the game But losers learn to be winners When they learn to refuse to play And now he's never looking back (Never looking back) At fla Now he's hiding from the heat In a mansion on Martinique It's so much cooler down there Counting cash under a paddle fan He's forgotten old friends and jail To hell with the Ho Chi Minh Trail He's just another lonely, quiet and rich Ex-American The veteran of the war But wars are all the same Another pawn, another believer Another loser in the game But losers learn to be winners When they learn to refuse to play And now he's never looking back (Never looking back) At the usa The veteran of the war But wars are all the same Another pawn, another believer Another loser in the game But losers learn to be winners When they learn to refuse to play And now he's never looking back (Never looking back) At the usa The veteran of the war But wars are all the same Another pawn, another believer Another loser in the game But losers learn to be winners When they learn to refuse to play And now he's never looking back (Never looking back) At the usa The veteran of the war But wars are all the same Another pawn, another believer Another loser in the game But losers learn to be winners When they learn to refuse to play And now he's never looking back
