I Can't Write Left Handed Lyrics

I can't write left-handed.
Would you please write a letter to my mother?
Tell her to tell-tell her to tell the family lawyer.Yeah I'm trying to get a deferment for my younger brother.
Tell the Reverend Harris to pray for me.
Lord, lord, lord.Said I ain't gonna live
Ain't gonna live to get much older.
Strange little man over here in Vietnam
I ain't I ain't never seen,
Bless his heart, ain't never done nothing to,
He done shot me in my shoulder
Oh, in my shoulderLord, lord, yeah
Boot camp we had classes, yeah, yeah
You know we talked about fighting-fighting everyday, yeah
And looking through rosy rosy colored glasses, oh yeah
I must admit it seemed exciting anyway.
Something they overlooked to tell me, yeah
The bullets look better, I must say
Brother-brother when they're not coming at you, yeah

Than going out the other way
So please call up the Reverend Harris.
(call up the Reverend Harris)

Some good things for me, yeah yeah yeah yeah
