Ain't found a way to kill me yet
Eyes burn with stinging sweat Seems every path leads me to nowhere Wife and kids, household pet Army green was no safe bet The bullets scream to me from somewhere Here they come to snuff the rooster Yeah, here come the rooster You know he ain't gonna die Walkin' tall, machine gun man They spit on me in my home land Gloria sent me pictures of my boy Got my pills 'gainst mosquito death My buddy's breathin' his dyin' breath Oh god, please, won't you help me make it through. |

An anthem for war veterans. Resilent listening.

this is arguably their most popular song... i
don't even think it's that good. i like the
unplugged version more. definitely a good track
though, very haunting. just not their best.

this album, i gotta say that they were amazing

This is one of the best songs by AIC, I personally
love the acousic version better...I think this
would be my choice of song when I die...R.I.P

This song is amazin and really hits home for me
from a military standpoint. The Vietnam
generation were so overlooked by our Country's
civilians that it pains me when I am reminded of
it. All the Veterans of this great country
deserve respect and this song helps to epitomize
that for me. Great song!

This song made me understand more about my father
being so close minded on the world. Vietnam was
hell and this song catches every aspect.

Kick ass classic. Great guitar riffs in the middle
and chorus.

fron Alice in Chains.

Amazing song. It's heavy, headstrong, to the
point, and the vocal harmony is great.

Great song about Jerry's father in the war. Both
personally and universally effective.

So powerful. The bass line coupled with the
incredibly tight harmonies between Layne and
Jerry. Here they are more of a coupled melody but
it makes for such an atmospheric moment. One of
AIC's finest!

Layne voice is so powerfull on this, the harmony
that jerry and him give is just awesome.
