Downtown Baghdad Blues
Black 47

Got a buddy in Najaf, he's playing it straightnPrays to the Lord Jesus Christ every nightnGot a homey in Samarra going up the wallnEvery time he hear an Islamic prayer callnMe, I don't care much for Jesus or MohammednThey don't stop bullets to the best of my knowledgenLater for the both of you, catch you in eternitynHopefully, towards the end of this centurynnI didn't want to come here, I didn't get to choosenI got the hup, two, three, four downtown Baghdad bluesnnI wish I was back home rooting for the PadresnIstead of dodging bullets from Mookie el SadrnI wish I was back in the land of GiulianinInstead of taking heat from Ayatollah SistaninDon't know what I'm doing, but one thing is clearnTwenty years old, I can kill but I can't buy a beernKeep your head down, don't get your brain cells friednYou'll be home by Christmas - dead or alive!nnI wish I was back in the U.S. of A.nInstead dodging rockets in Falluji-aynThere's a lady with my tattoo on her, so specialnDream of her and me out in the desertnShe riding around in her daddy's Ford ExplorernI'm kicking in doors, hey, I thought this war was overnGot sand in my nose, sand in my eyesnBut the sand can't cover up the sightsnOf a sniper with my number, got his finger on the triggernHope my baby's okay, still waiting for a letternAll I get are emails, so much unsaidnIt's hot here, baby, but it's so cold inside my headnnMission accomplished, yeah, up on decknGot no armor for my Humvee, left facing this train wrecknShia don't like me, want Islamic revolutionnSunni say civil war is part of the solutionnMaybe someday there'll be peace in FallujahnMcdonalds on the boulevard, Cadillac cruisingnI'm trying hard to keep this whole thing straightnBut will someone tell me what am I doing here in the first place?
