Drive On

	I got a friend named
	Whiskey Sam
	He was my boonierat buddy for a year in
	NamHe said is my country just a little off track
	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 dreamI hear the men and the monkeys in the jungle scream
	Drive on, it don't mean nothin'
	My children love me , but they don't understand
	And I got a woman who knows her man
	Drive on, don't mean nothin', drive on
	I remember one night,
	Tex and me
	Rappelled in on a hot
	L.ZWe had our 16's on rock and roll
	But, with all that fire,
	I was scared and cold
	We were crazy, we were 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 , but they don't understand
	And I got a woman who knows her man
	Drive on, don't mean nothin', drive on
	It was a real slow walk in a real sad rain
	And nobody tried to be
	John Wayne
	I came home, but
	Tex did not
	And I can't talk about the hit he got
	I got a little limp now when
	I walkGot a little tremolo when
	I talkBut my letter read from
	Whiskey Sam
	You're a walkin' talkin' miracle from
	VietnamDrive on, it don't mean nothin'
	My children love me , but they don't understand
	And I got a woman who knows her man
	Drive on, don't mean nothin', drive on
