your son's been killed in vietnam, doo-dah, doo-dah
your son's been killed in vietnam, doo-dah, doo-dah your son's been killed in vietnam, oh, the doo-dah day the mother fuckers dead, they shot him in the head;
 your son's been killed in vietnam, oh the doo-0dah day.
chorus
oh, gwine to fight all night, gwine to fight all day gwine ta send him home in a body bag, oh the doo-dah day
hit him in the chest with an rpg--
he ain't got but an arm and a leg--
send him home in a body bag---
repeat first verse
