[VERSE 1]

B
 Born down in a dead man's town
 The first kick I took was when I hit the ground
    E
You end up like a dog that's been beat too much                                             
Till you spend half your life just covering up

   I got in a little hometown jam
   And so they put a rifle in my hands
 E  
   Sent me off to Vietnam
   To go and kill the yellow man

   Come back home to the refinery
   Hiring man says 'Son if it was up to me'

   I go down to see the V.A. man

 B
   Down in the shadow of the penitentiary
   Out by the gas fires of the refinery
 E

   Nowhere to run, ain't got nowhere to go
