"And now for tonight's report on the Vietnam crisis. Fighting escalated today along the Mekong Delta. The body count has not yet been verified, but early estimates indicate the casualties could be at their highest since the beginning of the siege. US troops were pushed back as they attempted to infiltrate..."

So you’re a veteran of a foreign war
A winner of none
Remember the open doors?
Where have they gone?

You only did what you were told to do
And wish you had not
But for doing what you wanted to
You could be shot!

And now the things you went through crucify your mind
And every day somebody calls you ruthless and unkind

Soldier boy, soldier boy
No welcome home!
Soldier boy, soldier boy
You stand alone!

This aint the way that its supposed to be
Turning their backs
Closing eyes that don't wanna see
It couldn't be that
You only want what you were fighting for
You want to be free!
You gave it all and they wanted more
How could it be?

Cause when the things you went through crucify your mind
It doesn't help to hear them call you ruthless and unkind

Soldier boy, soldier boy
No welcome home!
Soldier boy, soldier boy
You stand alone!
Soldier boy, soldier boy
Risking your life!
Soldier boy, soldier boy
Wondering “Why?”

And now the things you went through crucify your mind
And every day somebody calls you ruthless and unkind

Soldier boy, soldier boy
No welcome home!
Soldier boy, soldier boy
You stand alone!
Soldier boy, soldier boy
Risking your life!
Soldier boy, soldier boy
Wondering “Why?”

You're a soldier boy
A soldier, soldier boy
