Bamiba, Bamiba, Bamiba, wah whoo
(Bamiba, Bamiba, Bamiba, wah whoo)
Oh, won’t you help me Sergeant get me out of Pleiku jail
I don’t know how I got here; I was drunk from the Ho Chi Trail
It was Bamiba, Bamiba, Bamiba, wah whoo
(Bamiba, Bamiba, Bamiba, wah whoo)

I didn’t mean to be drunk
And bringing you all this shame
But I had a fight with a simpler girl, down in (Mor la Trang???)
It was Bamiba, Bamiba, Bamiba, wah whoo
(Bamiba, Bamiba, Bamiba, wah whoo)

Now this damning jail has rats and fleas
And snakes crawl on the floor
Take me back to camp, Sarge and I won’t get drunk no more
On Bamiba, Bamiba, Bamiba, wah whoo
(Bamiba, Bamiba, Bamiba, wah whoo)

There’s VC all around us
It’s looking bad I think
We can’t do a thing Sarge so lets have a little drink
Of Bamiba, Bamiba, Bamiba, wah whoo
(Bamiba, Bamiba, Bamiba, wah whoo)

Oh, won’t you help me Sergeant get me out of Pleiku jail
I don’t know how I got here; I was drunk from the Ho Chi Trail
It was Bamiba, Bamiba, Bamiba, wah whoo
(Bamiba, Bamiba, Bamiba, wah whoo)
Bamiba, Bamiba, Bamiba, wah whoo
Wah whoo
