Dove In Hawk's Clothing

I got a little telegram from LBJ

said com one down the weather is fine

But first we're gonna check you out and teach you what to do

So buddy better stand here in line

We're gonna strip you naked and build you up again

Then we're gonna mess up your mind

Then we're gonna send you to the jungle

If you're lucky you'll survive

And learn to dodge a plain old mine

You'll be a dove in hawk's clothing

Yes you will

I went down to the draft house and said you guys are nuts

Killing people just ain't right

You looked at me and laughed out loud and rolled on the floor

And said "you're outta sight"

Take our eight week basic course it's called 100 ways to kill

and know that you'll see the land

The way the grabbed me by the arm I knew they weren't kidding around

I began to feel uptight

I can't be a dove in hawk's clothing

No no no

I applied for Co but that did me no good

They said "to warrant you must go"

I said "That isn't very much of a choice so let me think I'll let you know"

They said it's unpatriotic to think out loud sound like a "please let me go"

So they threw me in the prison with a five year term

Now I'm feeling pretty low

'cause I'm a dove in convicts clothing

oh no no
