Текст песни Hymn No. 5 - KING HANNIBAL

I wrote my baby from Vietnam
And this is what I said,

"I want to see you
(You know that)
I want to see you
I want to see you
(Yes I do, now)
Yes, I do.

"Sleeping in these foxholes
Hungry and cold
I had a dream last night

I dreamed I saw you
(You know that I)
I dreamed I saw you
(Yes, I did, yeah)
I dreamed I saw you
(Yeah, I want to say that I)
(I dreamed, a dream)
Yes, I did."

I want somebody
To tell my mother
And go down yonder in Georgia
And tell my father
That I'm way over here
Crawling in these trench-holes,
Covered with blood,
But one thing that I know:

There's no tomorrow,
There's no tomorrow,
There's no tomorrow —
They'll bury me.

I want everybody
In the sound of my voice this evening
To help me sing this hymn number five.

I want you to moan one time.

Sometimes I wonder,
I wonder what was it that I did?
I tried to be a good father,
I did the best that I could.
And I wonder, who's going to take care of my kids?
I'm a long way from home, children.

But I want the world to know
The one thing that I did.
I'm gone for good.
