Luyện nghe bài hát Safe Behind the Wire

When the were bagged and the telegrams sent
And the last chopper had goneâ?¦
And you looked out the window of the 707 on the airfield in
Some of us thought that the war was over, some of us care less;
But you home and threw a stay-behind party to try to clear up the mess.

And I don't where you are tonight,
I'm here in a fire-fightâ?¦
But wherever you are, I hope you're safe the wire.

We were fighting for freedom in South East Asia - that's how the story
Windy speeches about a domino falling China into Vietnam.
But look in sickness and anger,
Australia honour her debt;
And non-commissioned Thompson learned that the war wasn't over yet.

Living on your nerves, living on the
Sleeping in airports far from
Dusted off now and behind the wire.

Well, he gave and he gave and he kept on giving, till he just couldn't give
And he gave it away one morning in Sydney in a Commodoreâ?¦
And I remember best talking on the phone,
With a grin on his face
'Cause Commissioners and Knights of the Realm
Thought that didn't know his place.

And they're bagging bodies, Phill, though fourteen years have gone;
And the and the dads and the wives and the kids still have to soldier on.
