John Prine
Take The Star Out Of The Window

Robert was a sailor

For the best years of his life

His captain was his mother

And the ocean was his wife



Only fresh out of the cradle

Life's one and only spring

He was sworn to do his duty

And got blood on his high school ring



And it's hello California

Hello, dad and mom

Ship ahoy, your baby boy

Is home from Vietnam



Don't you ask me any questions

'Bout the medals on my chest

Take the star out of the window

And let my conscience take a rest



Now he sailed across the ocean

To the old far eastern war

And it was foreign to his body

It was foreign to his shore



So he traded in the present

For the better times he'd seen

And made an oriental waitress

His own home comin' queen



And it's hello California

Hello, dad and mom

Ship ahoy, your baby boy

Is home from Vietnam



Don't you ask me any questions

'Bout the medals on my chest

Take the star out of the window

And let my conscience take a rest

His own home comin' queen

And made an oriental waitress

It was foreign to his shore

And it was foreign to his body

Now he sailed across the ocean



And let my conscience take a rest

Take the star out of the window

Life's one and only spring

Only fresh out of the cradle



And the ocean was his wife

His captain was his mother

For the best years of his life

Robert was a sailor
