Readjustment Blues (Remaster) - John Denver (约翰·丹佛)
Just out of the infantry this morning

I had to pay my dues across the sea

But no one back in boot camp ever warned me

What the readjustment blues would do to me

"Welcome to Havannah" said the pilot

"We must have made a wrong turn on the way "

"Let's buy some cigars and keep it quiet

If they don't know we're here we'll get away "

Just as I had realized he was joking

I saw we were in Washington D C

'Cause there was all the patriotic buildings

Just like I had seen them on T V

It must have been a holiday

'Cause there was this parade

People carried signs I couldn't read that they had made

'Till I got closer and my heart fell to my socks;

There was a battle raging and
The air was filled with teargas and rocks

There was the flag I'd fought against so often

The one I fought for hanging upside down

The wind was blowing hard the dirt was flying

It made the city sky look dark and brown

I saw a girl she could have been my sister

Except her hair was long and in her face

She explained this was a demonstration

Against the war and for the human race

Now I've seen a lot of strange things in my travels

Cannibals yes and aliens galore

But I never thought I'd see so many people

Saying we don't want your war

The troops all had on uniforms

Just like the one I'd worn

But they were all domestic and my duty chose war

They carried guns just like the ones across the sea

Except this time I was the citizen

And they were pointing their guns at me

Yes I was just a citizen and
I was walking down the street

And it was just then that the Readjustment Blues

Got through to me
