Johnny gave Joe his first cigarette
And Joe lit the filter and then he smoked the whole pack
And Joe bought all the gas in Johnnyâs old Ford
He always said thatâs what friends were for.
When Johnny married Tina, Joe married Dee
Two blonde-haired sisters from Covington, Kentucky
And in â67 Johnny joined the Corps
Joe did too, but he never knew what for.
And tonight in this barroom heâs easinâ his pain
Heâs thinkinâ of someone, but he wonât say the name
Folks say heâs a hero, but heâll tell you he ainât
He left a hero in the jungle back in 1968.
Johnny went from job to job tryinâ to make ends meet
And Tina divorced him back in â83
Now thirty years come and thirty years go
And Johnnyâs got a grandkid that he barely knows.
And tonight in this barroom heâs easinâ his pain
Heâs thinkinâ of someone, but he wonât say the name
Folks say heâs a hero, but heâll tell you he ainât
He left a hero in the jungle back in 1968.
Well Dee calls Johnny every now and then
And talks about her children and her third husband
But when he asks about someone they used to know
Dee says, âJohnny that was so long ago.â
Tonight in this barroom heâs easinâ his pain
Heâs thinkinâ of someone, but he wonât say the name
Folks say heâs a hero; heâll tell you ainât
He left a hero in the jungle back in 1968
He left a hero in the jungle back in 1968.
