Vietnam Talkin' Blues Reflection

“Vietnam Talkin’ Blues”

Written by John R Cash.
( Song of Cash Music/Bughouse.)
From "A Man In Black", 1971, Columbia Records.

One mornin' at breakfast, I said to my wife,
We been everywhere once and some places twice,
As I had another helping of country ham,
She said "We ain't never been to Vietnam,
"And there's a bunch of our boys over there."
So we went to the Orient: Saigon.

Well we got a big welcome when we drove in,
Through the gates of a place that they call Long Vinh.
We checked in and everything got kinda quiet,
But a soldier boy said: "Just wait 'til tonight,
"Things get noisy. Things start happenin'.
"Big bad firecrackers."

Well that night we did about four shows for the boys,
And they were livin' it up with a whole lot of noise.
We did our last song for the night,
And we crawled into bed for some peace and quiet,
But things weren't peaceful. And things weren't quiet.
Things were scary.

Well for a few minutes June never said one word,
And I thought at first that she hadn't heard.
Then a shell exploded not two miles away,
She sat up in bed and I heard her say: "What was that?"
I said: "That was a shell, or a bomb."
She said: "I'm scared." I said "Me too."

Well all night long that noise kept on,
And the sound would chill you right to the bone.
The bullets and the bombs, and the mortar shells,
Shook our bed every time one fell,
And it never let up; it was gonna get worse,
Before it got any better.

Well when the sun came up, the noise died down,
We got a few minutes sleep, an' we were sleepin' sound,
When a soldier knocked on our door and said:
"Last night they brought in seven dead, and 14 wounded."
And would we come down to the base hospital, and see the boys.
"Yes!"

So we went to the hospital ward by day,
And every night we were singin' away.
Then the shells and the bombs was goin' again.
And the helicopters brought in the wounded men.
Night after night; day after day.
Comin' and a goin'.

So we sadly sang for them our last song,
And reluctantly we said: "So long."
We did our best to let 'em know that we care,
For every last one of 'em that's over there.
Whether we belong over there or not.
Somebody over here love's 'em, and needs 'em

Well now that's about all that there is to tell,
About that little trip into livin' hell.
And if I ever go back over there any more,
I hope there's none of our boys there for me to sing for;
I hope that war is over with,
And they all come back home,
To stay.

In peace.

            Many __________________ monks burned themselves alive in protest of the war and Diem (picture on page 940).  The official name of the war became known as the __________________ because war was never formally declared.  __________________ was assassinated by a plot is that to have included the United States, because he was not popular enough compared to the __________________ to win support in South Vietnam.  Further chaos ensued.  The U.S.S. __________________ was torpedoed in the Gulf of __________________ on August 2^nd and 4^th 1964, but a formal declaration of war did not follow.  President Lyndon __________________ passed the Gulf of Tonkin __________________ with Congressional approval on August 7^th, which gave the President broad military powers in the time of crisis.  Many American soldiers were sent to Vietnam because of this.  The __________________ had not declared war.

“Fortunate Son” by Credence Clearwater Revival

Directions: Listen to the song, read the lyrics and discuss.  Then write a one paragraph-minimum reflection.

Ooh, theyre red, white and blue.

It aint me, it aint me, I aint no senators son, son.
It aint me, it aint me; I aint no fortunate one, no,

Yeah!
