Herd (The) - "I Was Only 19"

Lyrics to I Was Only 19 : Mum, Dad and Denny were some amongst many who turned up to see the passing out parade at Puckapunyal Seemed every man and his mongrel watched cadets stumble on the long march to the Viet jungle "Oh Christ", I mumbled as I drew that card And my mates came to slap me on the back with due regard We were the sixth battalion, yep next to tour we did Canungra and Shoalwater before we left, rest assured Seemed half of Townsville turned out to see us leave And they lined the footpaths as we marched to the quay The papers wrote it up like you would not believe but we were looking to the future for a fast reprieve The newspaper clippings show us young, strong and clean rockin slouch hats, slung SLRs and greens God help me, I was only nineteen From Vung Tau in black helicopters The chinook pilots seemed relieved at Nui Dat when they dropped us Feels like months running on and off landing pads letters to Dad cause its like, man, hes sad But he cant see the tents that we call home cans of VB and pin-ups of chicks off TV The noise, the mosquitoes and the heat surprising like the first time you see an agent orange horizon [Chorus:] So please can you tell me doctor why I still cant get to sleep The scars left in me' Night times just a jungle, dark and a barking M16 that keeps saying "rest in peace" And what the hells this rash that comes and goes I dont suppose you can tell me what that means' God help me, I was only nineteen Sent off on a four-week long operation where every single step could be your last one On two legs it was sorta living hell falling with the shells, war within yourself But you wouldnt let your mates down til they had you dusted off so you closed your eyes and thought of something else Then someone yelled "contact!", another bloke swore we hooked in there for hours then a god almighty roar Then Frankie kicked a mine, the day that mankind kicked the moon God help me, he was going home in June And I can still see Frank with a can in his hand thirty-six hour leave in the bar at the Grand I can still hear Frank, a screaming mess of bleeding flesh, couldnt retrieve his legs The ANZAC legend neglected to mention the mud The fear, the blood, the tears, the tension Dads recollection beyond comprehension didnt seem quite real until we were sent in The chaos and confusion, the fire and steel hot shrapnel in my back I didnt even feel God help me, I was only nineteen [Chorus 2:] So please can you tell me doctor, why I cant get to sleep I cant hardly eat' And the sound of the Channel Seven chopper still chills me to my feet still fuels my grief' And whats this rash that comes and goes like the dreams, can you tell me what that means' God help me, I was only nineteen Mum and Dad and Denny saw the passing out parade at Puckapunyal It was a long march from Cadets The sixth battalion was the next to tour It was me who drew the card we did Canungra and Shoalwater before we left [Chorus 2] [ I Was Only 19 Lyrics ]
