E Well, come on all of you, big strong men,
A Uncle Sam needs your help again.
E He's got himself in a terrible jam
A Way down yonder in Vietnam
F# B So put down your books and pick up a gun,
E A We're gonna have a whole lotta fun.
F# B E And it's one, two, three,
A What are we fighting for ?
E Don't ask me, I don't give a damn,
A Next stop is Vietnam;
F# B E And it's five, six, seven,
A Open up the pearly gates,
F# B Well there ain't no time to wonder why,
E A Whoopee! we're all gonna die.
E Come on Wall Street, don't be slow,
A Why man, this is war a-go-go
E There's plenty good money to be made
A By supplying the Army with the tools of its trade,
F# B But just hope and pray that if they drop the bomb,
E A They drop it on the Viet Cong.
F# B E And it's one, two, three,
A What are we fighting for ?
E Don't ask me, I don't give a damn,
A Next stop is Vietnam.
F# B E And it's five, six, seven,
A Open up the pearly gates,
F# B Well there ain't no time to wonder why
E A Whoopee! we're all gonna die.
E Now, come on generals, let's move fast;
A Your big chance is here at last.
E Now you can go out and get those reds
A 'Cause the only good commie is the one that's dead
F# B And you know that peace can only be won
E A When we've blown 'em all to kingdom come.
F# B E And it's one, two, three,
A What are we fighting for ?
E Don't ask me, I don't give a damn,
A Next stop is Vietnam;
F# B E And it's five, six, seven,
A Open up the pearly gates,
F# B Well there ain't no time to wonder why
E A Whoopee! we're all gonna die.
E Come on mothers throughout the land,
A Pack your boys off to Vietnam.
E Come on fathers, and don't hesitate
A To send your sons off before it's too late.
F# B And you can be the first ones in your block
E A To have your boy come home in a box.
F# B E And it's one, two, three
A What are we fighting for ?
E Don't ask me, I don't give a damn,
A Next stop is Vietnam.
F# B E And it's five, six, seven,
A Open up the pearly gates,
F# B Well there ain't no time to wonder why,
E A Whoopee! we're all gonna die.
I'm not 100% sure about the key. I've heard several different versions and they all differnt, but this sounds good to me.
