Billy came back from Vietnam Just a shadow of a man He was a shadow of a man When he came back from Vietnam Billy came back from Vietnam Just a shadow of a man He was a shadow of a man When he came back from Vietnam He was spraying that Agent Orange On the foliage of the land Out of 80-gallon cans Way back in Vietnam Billy came back from Vietnam Just a shadow of a man He was a shadow of a man When he came back from Vietnam He married him up a woman that he Like to call Diane Though her true name was Mai-Pan She changed her name to Mrs. Graham After two stillborn babies Billy said I am just a portion of the man I was before I went to Nam Now he drinks and snorts amphetamine Just as often as he can He's a shadow of a man Spent his time in Vietnam Billy came back from Vietnam Just a shadow of a man He was a shadow of a man When he came back from Vietnam
