[Intro]
N.C.
"Mrs Murphy, Mrs Murphy, Telegram for Mrs Murphy"
"Is it a singing telegram?"
"Well, it's rather sad news".
"I've always wanted a singing telegram".
"Well, here goes!
[Verse 1]
N.C.                                     A  D  
Dear Mom, your son is dead; he bought the farm today
He crashed his AOV-10 on the EHo Chi Minh's highway
It was a Arocket pass, and then he Dbusted his ass
... AHmmm ... EHmmm ... AHmmm ...
[Verse 2]
N.C.                                A  D  
He went across the fence to see what he could see
AThere it was, as Eplain as it could be
It was a Atruck on the road with a Dbig heavy load
... AHmmm ... EHmmm ... AHmmm ...
[Verse 3]
N.C.                                 A  D  
He got right on the horn and gave the DASC a call
"ASend me air; I've Egot a truck that's stalled".
The DASC said, "AThat's all right, I'll send you DPirate Flight"
FOR  AI   EAM THE APOWER!
[Verse 4]
N.C.                                       A  D  
The fighters checked right in; gunfighters, two by two
ALow on gas and Etanker overdue
They asked the AFAC to mark just where that Dtruck was parked.
... AHmmm ... EHmmm ... AHmmm ...
[Verse 5]
N.C.                               A  D  
The FAC he rolled right in with his smoke to mark
AExactly where that Efucking truck was parked
And the Arest is in doubt, because he Dnever pulled out
... AHmmm ... EHmmm ... AHmmm ...
[Verse 6]
N.C.                                     A  D  
Dear Mom, your son is dead; he bought the farm today
He crashed his AOV-10 on the EHo Chi Minh highway
It was a Arocket pass, and then he Dbusted his ass
[Outro]
N.C.
Him, Him, Fuck Him
How did he go?   Straight in.
What was he doing?    169.
