[00:00.00]	作词 : JOEL, BILLY
[00:04.76]	Goodnight Saigon
[00:07.48]
[01:01.73]	We met as soul mates
[01:06.42]	On Parris Islands
[01:10.17]	We left as inmates
[01:13.66]	From an asylum
[01:17.51]	And we were sharp
[01:21.23]	As sharp as knives
[01:24.91]	And we were so gung ho
[01:28.00]	To lay down our lives
[01:30.40]
[01:32.57]	We came in spastic
[01:35.78]	Like tameless horses
[01:39.38]	We left in plastic
[01:43.13]	As numbered corpses
[01:46.97]	And we learned fast
[01:50.04]	To travel light
[01:54.27]	Our arms were heavy
[01:56.88]	But our bellies were tight
[01:59.89]
[02:12.31]	We had no home front
[02:16.77]	We had no soft soap
[02:20.33]	They sent us Playboy
[02:24.33]	They gave us Bob Hope
[02:27.92]	We dug in deep
[02:31.49]	And shot on sight
[02:35.34]	And prayed to Jesus Christ
[02:37.97]	With all of our might
[02:40.79]
[02:43.33]	We had no cameras
[02:46.37]	To shoot the landscape
[02:50.20]	We passed the hash pipe
[02:53.92]	And played our Doors tapes
[02:57.70]	And it was dark
[03:01.54]	So dark at night
[03:03.76]
[03:05.16]	And we held on to each other
[03:08.34]	Like brother to brother
[03:13.49]	We promised our mothers we'd write
[03:20.70]	And we would all go down together
[03:27.04]	We said we's all go down together
[03:34.02]	Yes we would all go down together
[03:39.71]
[03:51.25]	Remember Charlie
[03:55.91]	Remember Baker
[03:59.77]	They left their childhood
[04:03.17]	On every acre
[04:06.86]	And who was wrong?
[04:10.70]	And who was right?
[04:14.24]	It didn't matter in the thick
[04:18.31]	Of the fight
[04:20.10]
[04:27.15]	We held the day
[04:33.23]	In the palm
[04:36.87]	Of our hand
[04:41.80]	They ruled the night
[04:47.75]	And the night
[04:51.65]	Seemed to last as long as
[04:56.24]	Six weeks on Parris Islands
[05:01.09]
[05:02.27]	We held the coastline
[05:05.52]	They held the highlands
[05:09.36]	And they were sharp
[05:12.53]	As sharp as knives
[05:16.53]	They heard the hum of our motors
[05:20.71]	They counted the rotors
[05:24.56]	And waited for us to arrive
[05:29.10]
[05:31.44]	And we would all go down together
[05:38.07]	We said we'd all go down together
[05:45.22]	Yes we would all go down together
[05:51.07]
[05:54.57]
