This is a protest against protesters:

Fearless cowards of the U.S.A.

Bravely here at home they stay

They watch their friends get shipped away

The draft dodgers of the Yellow Beret



Yellow streaks up and down their spines

Men who gladly stay behind

They won't fight for the U.S.A.

They fought hard for the yellow beret



Men who faint at the sight of blood

Their high heeled boots weren't meant for mud

The draft board will hear their sob stories today

Only the best the yellow beret



Back at home a young wife waits

Her yellow beret has met his fate

He's been drafted for marching in a protest

Leaving her his last request



Put a yellow streak down my sons back

Make sure that he never ever fights back

At his physical have him say he's gay

Have him win the yellow beret



The yellow beret

Yeah the yellow beret
