because limewire is retarded. The Animals do the famous version of House of the Rising Sun, which was recorded in 1964, a traditional folk song that is hardly about Vietnam.


But for Vietnam, yes anything by the Doors. Just go watch Apocalypse Now

NOPE. Jimi's version is a lot more famous, but not the original. DMB covered it again.. but it sucked and not NEARLY as good as the first 2 versions

heres the lyrics-

Generals gathered in their masses,
just like witches at black masses.
Evil minds that plot destruction,
sorcerers of death's construction.
In the fields the bodies burning,
as the war machine keeps turning.
Death and hatred to mankind,
poisoning their brainwashed minds.
Oh lord, yeah!

Politicians hide themselves away.
They only started the war.
Why should they go out to fight?
They leave that role to the poor, yeah.

Time will tell on their power minds,
making war just for fun.
Treating people just like pawns in chess,
wait till their judgement day comes, yeah.

Now in darkness world stops turning,
ashes where the bodies burning.
No more War Pigs have the power,
Hand of God has struck the hour.
Day of judgement, God is calling,
on their knees the war pigs crawling.
Begging mercies for their sins,
Satan, laughing, spreads his wings.
Oh lord, yeah!
