Artist/Band: Old Crow Medicine Show
Lyrics for Song: Big Time In The Jungle
Lyrics for Album: Old Crow Medicine Show [2006]



Down In Eutaw, Alabama in 1965

A young man about 21 no different

Then you or I

He's catchin' catfish and gettin' drunk

But Uncle Sam called, he called him up

Sent him out to Vietnam

That young man

Got his life turned upside down

Turned his smile into a frown

Robbed that king of his crown

For an ideal he didn't even know about



He was gamblin' at the wagon

When that Army man showed up

And he flashed that pen and paper

And Ol' Flukie he signed up

There's gonna be a big time in the

Jungle

Gonna be a firefight

Gonna be a rumble

Send me out to Vietnam

I'll fight ten men

I got nothin' left in the states for me

I wanna see the world you see

I know that Uncle Sam needs me

To fight for an ideal I know nothin'

About



Oh the drop point was dusty and the

drill sergeant was loud

And he could not see the corpses for the

ragin' dust cloud

Grab your duffle bags, head to the

checkpoint

Welcome to Vietnam boys you're in

For a hell of a fight

Take it from the ones who know

The army moves slow

Hurry up and wait don't sleep late

And learn to hate your brother

before you hate your foes



On patrol out in the rice fields, them

Choppers flew low

Glancing for the hand signal to tell you

Where to go

Then the bombs started fallin'

And they pounded his brain

And he thought about Eutaw and who

was to blame

For sendin' him to Vietnam
