In 1967, you went to Vietnam Two years later, you came back, and no one gave a damn They treated you like some kind of phreak when they should have shown respect Now you walk around in some kind of daze, because of the horrors you met. () For the power, and the glory You went to war and fought for your country For the power and the glory You're Veterans and this is your story You envy the vets of WWII because they knew what they where fighting for They had the support of a country, you had a country opposed to the war You try to get the V.A.'s help, but too often they turn away You sit at home and try to forget, but take hope -- You'll see your day!
