[Intro]
E E Em E E Em E
[Verse 1]
E
I got a friend named Whiskey Sam
A
He was my boonierat buddy for a year in Nam
B7
He said is my country just a little off track
E B7 E
Took 'em twenty-five years to welcome me back
[Verse 2]
E
But, it's better than not comin' back at all
A
Many a good men I saw fall
B7
And even now, every time I dream
E B7 E
I hear the men and the monkeys in the jungle scream
[Chorus]
E
Drive on, it don't mean nothin'
B7 E
My children love me, but they don't understand
A E
And I got a woman who knows her man, Drive on
E B7 E
It don't mean nothin', drive on
[Verse 3]
E
I remember one night, Tex and me
A
Rappelled in on a hot L.Z.
B7
We had our 16's on rock and roll
E B7 E
But with all that fire, was scared and cold
[Verse 4]
E
I was crazy and I was wild
A
And I have seen the tiger smile
B7
I spit in a bamboo viper's face
E B7 E
And I'd be dead, but by God's grace, Drive on,
[Chorus]
E
It don't mean nothin'
B7 E
My children love me, but they don't understand
A E
And I got a woman who knows her man, Drive on
E B7 E
It don't mean nothin', it don't mean nothin', drive on
[Verse 5]
E
It was a slow walk in a sad rain
A
And nobody tried to be John Wayne
B7
I came home, Tex did not
E B7 E
And I can't talk about the hit he got
[Verse 6]
E
Well, I got a little limp now when I walk
A
and I Got a little tremolo when I talk
B7
But I finally found out who I am
E B7 E
I'm a walkin' talkin' miracle from Vietnam, Drive on,
[Chorus]
E
It don't mean nothin'
B7 E
My children love me, but they don't understand
A E
And I got a woman who knows her man, Drive on
E B7 E
It don't mean nothin', it don't mean nothin', drive on
