From the album Among the ruins

lyrics

Saigon Blues

The city’s all hot
In a motorcycle rush
A mind deafening noise
This city gives you just one choice

The hustle and bustle
In the belly of the dragon
With its millions of roaring
Fuming two wheeled wagons

Cleansed by the heavy
Endless monsoon rains
On every corner a kitchen
Eat and drink all that you can

Dollar driven country
Cheap dong land
Ho Chi Min profit
Ho Chi Min demand


Saigon Blues
What can you do


I woke up in a room
Twelve stairs up
The fan spinning hard
It’s so God damn hot

Opened the only window
To let the air in
The cities symphony
Came a-rushing in

Ho Chi Min profit
Ho Chi Min demand
Dollar driven country
Cheap dong land

If I stay in this place
Another long hot day
I’ll be lost forever
In a purple haze


Saigon Blues
What can you do

If there’s a place
Both heaven and hell
This city’s a prize winner
This city hits the bell

Dollar driven country
Cheap dong land
Ho Chi Min profit
Ho Chi Min demand


Saigon Blues
What can you do
