Homeless Vietnam Vets
Believing in God
As you stand on the side of the road
Advertising work for food
Believing in God
But where is he now
Advertising work for food
After fighting for others freedom
But where is he now
While you're all alone
After fighting for others freedom
They don’t even look at you
While you’re all alone
Not one person says hello
They don’t even look at you
No “thank you” comes from their mouths
Not one person says hello
As you stand on the side of the road
No “thank you” comes from their mouths
