When I pulled out of Basra they all wished me luck 当我把巴士拉出来，他们都祝我好运

Just like they always did before 就像他们总是以前那样

With a bulletproof screen on the hood of my truck 与我的车的引擎盖防弹屏

And a Bradley on my back door 和布拉德利在我的后门

Haulin' nine thousand gallons of high test gas Haulin “ 9000加仑高测试气体

Sergeant on the radio hollerin' at me 警长在电台纷纷抱我

Look out up ahead here come a R.P.G. 看出来了提前在这里走过了R.P.G.

I know the money's good but buddy can't you see 我知道钱是好哥们，但你看不出来
