Shadow Of A Man

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
