Pat Boone - Wish You Were Here, Buddy lyrics

rate me

Well, hi there, buddy

Thought I'd drop you a line

I haven't seen you

For a hundred years

When you get time

Will you let me know

If it's true what a fella hears

Heard you been leading

Those campus demonstrations

You're as busy as you can be

If the sit downs, walk outs

And others aggravate you

Bet you hardly ever think of me

Well, I'm on a little

Vacation in South Vietnam

And expense paid trip for one

I got my own little rifle

And a great uniform

And a job that must be done

Well, we're sleeping in the jungle

And ducking real bullets

And man, it's a lot of fun

Wish you were here

(Wish you were here)

Wish you were here

(Wish you were here)

I heard you let your hair grow

Til it's hanging on your shoulders

And you hardly have time to shave

Bet the girls all flip

Cause you look so fine like

Something crawled out of a cave

Heard Uncle Sam

Nearly scared you to death

But you fooled him just in time

Just stuck a little match

To your old draft card

And you burned up

A future like mine

Well, I'm on a little

Vacation in South Vietnam

And expense paid trip for one

I got my own little rifle

And a great uniform

And a job that must be done

Well, we're sleeping in the jungle

And ducking real bullets

And man, it's a lot of fun

Wish you were here

(Wish you were here)

Wish you were here

(Wish you were here)

Oh, I know you're not scared

You're a real brave guy

You're a regular Cassius Clay

And I know you'da fought

When the country was young

But the world's just different today

Well, you just stay home

And leave the fighting to us

And when the whole

Durn mess is through

I'll put away my rifle

And the old uniform

And I'll come looking for you

Well, we're sleeping in the jungle

And ducking real bullets

And man, it's a lot of fun

Wish you were here

(Wish you were here)

Wish you were here

(Wish you were here)

Wish you were here, old pal

(Wish you were here)

Wish you were here

(Wish you were here)

Wish you were here, little buddy

(Wish you were here)

I wanna introduce

You to them Comms

(Wish you were here)

Come on over and we'll just

Hold em til you get here, okay

Wish you were here<br />

<br />
