Wind blows and the old rocking chair wobbles

All he can say about the youth is lord help 'em

Wifes in heaven and, hes saying ever since

Vietnam lifes been hard as a veteran
谈及越战的往事总是莫名心酸
Simple life, ?shifting? six pack, yeah ice cold
无聊的生活无药可救，一打又一打的冰镇啤酒
Across the georgia line for a ticket for the lotto
绕远路去买彩票，就算刮开什么都没有
Probably never see his name in the headlines
