Sergeant please come get me
Get me out of the Pleiku jail
I don't know how I got here
I was drunk on the Ho Chi Trail

It was
Ba Muoi Ba, Ba Muoi Ba
Ba Muoi Ba, wa-ooo
Ba Muoi Ba, Ba Muoi Ba
Ba Muoi Ba, wa-ooo

I didn't mean to be fightin
Bringing you all of this shame
I got in a fight with a Sea Clo girl
Down in the ole Nha Trang

It was
Ba Muoi Ba, Ba Muoi Ba
Ba Muoi Ba, wa-ooo
Ba Muoi Ba, Ba Muoi Ba
Ba Muoi Ba, wa-ooo

[Instrumental]

The Da Nang jail was cold and damp
The rats they covered the floor
Take me back to camp Sarge
I won't get drunk no more

Over
Ba Muoi Ba, Ba Muoi Ba
Ba Muoi Ba, wa-ooo
Ba Muoi Ba, Ba Muoi Ba
Ba Muoi Ba, wa-ooo

There's VC all around us
It's looking bad I think
We can't do a thing Sarge
So lets have a little drink

Of a
Ba Muoi Ba, Ba Muoi Ba
Ba Muoi Ba, wa-ooo
Ba Muoi Ba, Ba Muoi Ba
Ba Muoi Ba, wa-ooo
Yeah
Ba Muoi Ba, Ba Muoi Ba
Ba Muoi Ba, wa-ooo
Ba Muoi Ba, Ba Muoi Ba
Ba Muoi Ba, wa-ooo
