The soldier were out of patrol and found a group of dead kids
They thought surely this was a sign that the enemy was near
So they radioed back to base
And more choppers did arrive
More choppers did arrive
While looking for the murders he came across o group surrounded by dead women
And the living where in US military green
Us military green
He raised his sight and was told to stand down by his own corporal
Later that night the soldier was sitting in thought about all around him
Soon he realized what must be done
He grabbed his gear and ran straight out of Vietnam
As he ran he heard screams from a nearby village
In his confusion he ran straight in and did as he was taught
He freed the village from tyranny
He laid two companies in US military green down
The village treated him as a king and feed him well and for the first time in over a year he knew he did what was right
The next day he reached the border to Cambodia where he finally was free
