Girls in Saigon City

"I wrote this for a friend of mine who told me a story similar to it."

There's a place called Da Nang Village
Cross the ocean far away
In deep concern for one young woman
That's where I abide today.

Today I got a dear-John-letter
From that young woman in the U.S.A.
When I was called I knew I'd lose her
It don't matter anyway.

There are girls in Saigon City
Waiting there with open arms
On my leave I may go see them
In this other world called Viet Nam.

Stateside girls should take this warning
Be faithful 'cause you can't tell
On the streets of Saigon City
They have many things to sell.

There are girls in Saigon City
Waiting there with open arms
On my leave I may go see them
In this other world called Viet Nam...
