                              “My Grandpa was in Viet-Nam –
                                Maybe You Knew Him There?”

I wear an amazon.com Viet-Nam boonie hat
USA mil specs made in Indonesia
Mostly in hopes of getting out of a traffic ticket
And because I meet the most interesting people

Sometimes pretty girls approach and speak to me
At first it was, “My brother was in Viet-Nam”
And then they said, “My father was in Viet-Nam”
And now, “My grandpa was in Viet-Nam

Maybe you knew him?

Oh, and let me get the door for you, sir”

Makes me wanna rattle my aluminum walker
