Well, I got a friend named Whiskey Sam
He was my boonierat buddy for a year in Nam
He said I think my country got a little off track
It took 'em twenty-five years to welcome me back
But it's better than not coming back at all
Many a good man I saw fall
And even now, every time I dream
I hear the men and the monkeys in the jungle scream
Drive on, it don't mean nothin'
My children love me, and they don't understand
And I got a woman who knows her man, drive on
It don't mean nothin', it don't mean nothin', drive on
I remember one night, Tex and me
Walked right up on to the sea
But we had our 16's on rock and roll
And we seperated them from thier soul
I was crazy, and I was wild
And I have seen the tiger smile
I spit in a bamboo viper's face
And I'd be dead, but by God's grace
Drive on, it don't mean nothin'
My children love me, and they don't understand
And I got a woman who knows her man, drive on
It don't mean nothin', it don't mean nothin', drive on
Well, the motor fell twenty feet away
And I carry shrapnel to this day
I came home, but Tex did not
And I can't talk about the hit he got
But I got a little limp now when I walk
And I got a little tremolo when I talk
But I finally found out who I am
You're a walkin' talkin' miracle from Vietnam
Drive on, it don't mean nothin'
My children love me, and they don't understand
And I got a woman who knows her man, drive on
It don't mean nothin', it don't mean nothin', drive on
