Fearless cowards of the U.S.A. Bravely here at home they stay They watch their friends get shipped away The draft dodgers of the Yellow Beret
Yellow streaks up and down their spines Men who gladly stay behind They won't fight for the U.S.A. They fought hard for the yellow beret
Men who faint at the sight of blood Their high heeled boots weren't meant for mud The draft board will hear their sob stories today Only the best the yellow beret
Back at home a young wife waits Her yellow beret has met his fate He's been drafted for marching in a protest Leaving her his last request
Put a yellow streak down my sons back Make sure that he never ever fights back At his physical have him say he's gay Have him win the yellow beret.
