With a Purple Heart and a monkey
B
on his back.

Don't stop to count the years,

Sweet songs never last too

long on broken radios.

B
E
Sam Stone's welcome home
A
Didn't last too long.
B
He went to work when he'd

And Sammy took to stealing

When he got that empty feeling

And the gold rolled through his veins
Like a thousand railroad trains,

And eased his mind in the

While the kids ran around wearin' other peoples'

When he popped his last balloon

With an overdose hovering in the air

But life had lost its fun
And there was nothing to be done

But trade his house that he
B
bought on the G. I. Bill
F#
For a flag draped casket on a
local heroes' hill.
