First Blood Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Mail-ordered body armor
Map to the Blue Bucket Mine
Guy who had a place down by the lakeside
Changing water to wine
Devastating schematics
Rough drafts of the 23rd psalm
[Chorus 1]
Paul Kersey never left his apartment
John Rambo never went to Vietnam
[Verse 1]
Armor-piercing Black Talons
From the first production line
Nobody's seen them in the wild
Since 1991
Out in the cul-de-sacs at midnight
Where the candy for the cannons comes from
[Chorus 2]
I heard Buford Pusser was dirty
John Rambo never went to Vietnam
[Verse 3]
Shall we rise to the occasion
Or go to sleep for good in the trenches?
Dug in beneath a brilliant blue sky
Helmets hanging high in the branches
Empty vessels by the dozens
Diamonds in the sun
[Chorus 3]
We worship nothing in the foxholes
John Rambo never went to Vietnam
John Rambo never went to Vietnam
Mail-ordered body armor
Map to the Blue Bucket Mine
Guy who had a place down by the lakeside
Changing water to wine
Devastating schematics
Rough drafts of the 23rd psalm
Paul Kersey never left his apartment
John Rambo never went to Vietnam
Armor-piercing Black Talons
From the first production line
Nobody's seen them in the wild
Since 1991
Out in the cul-de-sacs at midnight
Where the candy for the cannons comes from
I heard Buford Pusser was dirty
John Rambo never went to Vietnam
Shall we rise to the occasion
Or go to sleep for good in the trenches?
Dug in beneath a brilliant blue sky
Helmets hanging high in the branches
Empty vessels by the dozens
Diamonds in the sun
We worship nothing in the foxholes
John Rambo never went to Vietnam
John Rambo never went to Vietnam
