I've Got His Arm I've Got His Arm I've Had It For Weeks I've Got His Arm Steven Won't Give His Arm To No Gold Star Mother's Farm; War's Good Business So Give Your Son And I'd Rather Have My Country Die For Me.

There Are So Many Of You. Sell Your Mother For A Hershey Bar Grow Up Looking Like A Car There Are; All You Want To Do Is Live, All You Want To Do Is Give But Some How It All Falls Apart! back to "Songs of the Vietnam Era

I chose this song because of the interesting lyrics and because of how it really showed the countries feeling at the time. This songs message is about how terrible the war was and against how many people have died. It's also about how many "normal" people are going to war too, not just people who want to go to war. Not only do the lyrics of this song express the artists opinion but they also tell the listener to not go to war and to help bring peace. I think this song might make a young person who was thinking about joining the army rethink their decision and do something else. It could also help bring about peace marches.
