The Lyrics

There was a man way back in '82
I should explain to you
And he was called Rambo

The sheriff thought he looked like a bum
Oh, he was unwelcome
They arrested Rambo

And when they tortured him
He overpowered them
They underestimated Rambo

He fought so hard
He fought in Vietnam
He got so used to killing Viet Cong
When he returned
Protesters said, "You're wrong"
So he resented them

So he hid
Inside a rat-filled cave
He could not eat or shave
Unhygienic Rambo

He never smiled
Oh no, he always frowned
Richard Crenna talked him down
Sensitive Rambo

He's not afraid
He'll take on any man
Don't think he can't
Because I know he can
Rambo's prepared
He's always got a plan
Next stop Afghanistan

It's true
He risked his life for you

He had a knife
And wore a red headband
And I'm his biggest fan
