Red
Barefoot Truth

On a late Tuesday afternoonnThe sun shone grey in the Massachusetts skynRed walked into his living roomnFound his mother with a tear in her eyenTimes have changed, or so it seemednBoys became men at the age of seventeennRed was one of those, oh you knownWhat choice did they have other than to go?nnSo they went one by onenThey found no comfort from that Vietnam sunnThey wiped the sweat and blood from their facenAnd all they wondered when to find their saving gracenEach and every day you know they watched their brothers fallnThey drink heavy at night and try to forget it allnDidn't know if they would rather be alive or dead?nOh this is the story of a man named RednnTelling tales of darknessnNo legless man is harmlessnHeartlessly described by a gunnOh I can smell the gunpowdernThe quiet cries getting loudernAll this pain echoes in his headnThis is the story of a man named RednnHe walks the streets alone nownHe can't quite understand hownHe was the one to make it homenHe came out just as he went innOh no, no, no if you could only see withinnHe lies awake and looks at his wifenMotionless and helplessnShe has never felt this so but she knows what it's likenLiving with these emotions each and every daynhe still hears the orders calling calling, Fire away! nnYeah, yeah, no..nnTaken by the government yeah, nonOne by one they wentnBut they didnt come backnWell I'm telling tales of darknessnNo legless man is harmlessnHeartlessly described by a gunnOh I can smell the gunpowdernThe quiet cries getting loudernAll this pain echoes in his headnThis is the story of a man named RednnThe story of a man named RednnWell they couldn't have resistednI guess the government insisted, yeanThat their new best friends, oh that their new friendsnShould die in their arms, die in their arms, yeanOh no
