Decaying - Ho Chi Minh Trail lyrics

Along the lines of southern Laos NVA, focused on guerilla warfare With countless tons of ammunition Thrown straight into combat Moving vehicles and manpower This supply route reigns supreme Fueled by something worth fighting for A solid way to avoid a plain defeat Determined to strike it down But the trail is always shifting Maintenance during the day and night Tireless work force is unleashed Carpet bombing on a daily basis B-52s sweep the sky The US air force, throttle set on full Fulfilling a task which seems pointless The origins are from a previous struggle Baptized in battle During the First Indochina War First-rate engineering by VC The group 559 a**igned Perfected all the concealment Paved roads and vast bunker networks "Build roads to advance, fight the enemy to travel" Soviet supplies are in a firm use Anti-aircraft defenses set up to the task While the South Vietnamese morale collapses The trail is steadily upgraded The public opinion in the States is in turmoil And the vague truce is shattered After the Tet Offensive Westmoreland's army starts losing the hold Cannot maintain warfare with the lack of funds The tide had changed Keep up the pressure and continue on building up Pushing forward to end the conflict It is time to force Saigon down to its knees Moving vehicles and manpower A solid way to avoid a plain defeat With countless tons of ammunition Thrown straight into combat Carpet bombing on a daily basis On the Ho Chi Minh Trail
