A letter came today from the draft board | |
With trembling hands | |
I read the questionnaire | |
It asked me lots of things about my mama and papa | |
Now that ain't what | |
I call exactly fair | |
So I'm headin' for the nearest foreign border | |
Vancouver may be just my kind of town' | |
Cause they don't need the kind of law and order | |
That tends to keep a good man underground | |
A sad old soldier once told me a story | |
About a battlefield that he was on | |
He said a man should never fight for glory | |
He must know what is right and what is wrong | |
So I'm headin' for the nearest foreign border | |
Vancouver may be just my kind of town' | |
Cause they don't need the kind of law and order | |
That tends to keep a good man underground, oh yeah | |
Now, I don't know how much | |
I owe my uncle | |
But I suspect, it's more than | |
I can payHe's askin' me to sign a three-year contract | |
I guess, I'll catch the first bus out today | |
So I'm headin' for the nearest foreign border | |
Vancouver may be just my kind of town' | |
Cause they don't need the kind of law and order | |
That tends to keep a good man underground | |
That tends to keep a good man underground |
