Well Jesse was just a young, young man
Who tried living the best he can
From having nightly drinks at a bar
To fighting in the Vietnam war
Well he went downtown
Then he came around
And when things got brown
He did not back down, yeah
Well this had happened during his tour
Things are getting scary in the war
He thought he was gonna share a laugh
Instead he shot a man in half
Just one pull
And it was done
Then Jesse realized
That this wasn't fun, yeah
It wasn't fun, yeah
Yeah!
That's the story
And it's mad for sure
But that's the life of
Jesse the soldier, yeah
That's his life, yeah
Hell yeah!
Go Jess, go!
