Year 5

 

 

When asked by Ron and Nancy if he would sing "Born in the USA" at the Whitehouse, Bruce chuckled,
 "I guess they never listened to the words"

I got in a little hometown jam
And so they put a rifle in my hands
Sent me off to Vietnam
To go and kill the yellow man

 

Listen again, closely, to the "words",
 as the Marines carry Matthew's coffin to his final rest

 red, white & blue in the rafters,
the silent old men from the Corps,
what did they say when they shipped you away
to fight somebody's Hollywood view
