For 15 years Le Bin SonFought side by side with the AmericansIn the mountains and deltasof VietnamIn '75 Saigon fell and he left his commandAnd brought his family to the promised landSeabrook, Texas and the small towns in the Gulf of MexicoIt was delta country and reminded him of homeHe worked as a machinist, put his money awayAnd bought a shrimp boat with his cousinAnd together they harvested Galveston BayIn the mornin' 'fore the sun come upHe'd kiss his sleepin' daughterSteer out thru thechannelAnd cast his nets into the waterBilly Sutter fought with Charlie CompanyIn the highlands of Quang TriHe was wounded in the battle of Chu LaiShipped home in '68There he married and worked the gulf fishing groundsIn a boat that'd been his father'sIn the morning he'd kiss his sleeping sonAnd cast his nets into the waterBilly sat in front of his TV as the South fellAnd the communists rolled into SaigonHe and his friends watched as the refugees cameSettled on the same streets and worked the coast they'd grew up onSoon in the bars around the harbor was talkOf America for the AmericansSomeone said 'You want 'em out, you got to burn 'em out.'And brought in the Texas KlanOne humid Texas night there were 3 shadows on the harborCome to burn the Vietnamese into the seaIn the fire's light shots rang out2 Texans lay dead on the groundLe stood with a pistol in his handA jury acquitted him in self-defenseAs before the judge he did standBut as Le walked down the courthouse stepsBilly said 'My friend you're a dead man.'One late summer night Le stood watch along the watersideBilly stood in the shadowsHis K-bar knife in his handAnd the moon slipped behind the cloudsLe lit a cigarette, the bay was still as glassAs he walked by Billy stuck his knife into his pocketTook a breath and let him passIn the early darkness Billy rose upWent into the kitchen for a drink of waterKissed his sleeping wifeHeaded into the channelAnd cast his nets into the waterOf Galveston Bay
