Luang Prabang Songtext
von Dave Van Ronk

When I came back from Luang Prabang
I didn′t have a thing where my balls used to hang
But I had a wooden medal and a fine harangue
Now I'm a fucking hero

Mourn your dead land of the free
If you wanna be a hero, follow me
Mour your dead land of the free
If you wanna be a hero follow me

And the boys back home all envy me
I fought for Christian democracy
With nothing but air where my balls used to be
Now I′m a fucking hero


Mourn your dead land of the free
If you wanna be a hero, follow me
Mour your dead land of the free
If you wanna be a hero follow me

One and twenty cannons thunder
Into the mighty wild blue yonder
For a patriotic ball-less wonder
Now I'm a fucking hero

Mourn your dead land of the free
If you wanna be a hero, follow me
Mour your dead land of the free
If you wanna be a hero, follow me

In Lunag Prabang there is a spot
Where the corpses of your brothers rot
And every corpse is a patriot
Every corpse is a hero


Mourn your dead land of the free
If you wanna be a hero, follow me
Mour your dead land of the free
If you wanna be a hero, follow me
