Intro:
G Bm G Bm
G Bm
I used to watch Highway Patrol whittlin' with my knife
G Bm
but the thought never struck me I'd be black and white for life
G Em
I was raised on law and order in a community of strife
D Am C Am C Am
became a restless border and I never took a wife
G Bm
I went looking for Khadafi aboard Air Force One
G Bm
but I never did find him and the CIA said son
G Em
you'll never be a hero, your flying days are done
D Am C Am C Am
it's time for you to go home now, stop sniffin that smoking gun

G Bm
I was travellin with my family through the mideast late one night
G Bm
in the hotel all was quite the kids were out like little lights
G Em
then the street filled with jeeps there was an explosion to the right
D Am C Am C Am
they chanted "death to America" I was feelin like a fight

G Bm
So I ran down the stairs and out into the street
G Bm
someone kicked me in the belly someone else kissed my feet
G Em
I was Rambo in the disco shooting to the beat
D Am C Am C Am
When they burned me in effigy my vacation was complete
