Well it's one, two, three
What are we fightin' for
Don't ask me I don't give a damn
The next stop is Viet Nam

Like all survivors, I once thought
When I'm home I won't give a damn,
But now I know I'm caught;
I'll never leave Vietnam.

And on up the river is Grand Coulee Dam
The mightiest thing ever built by a man

Martha went down to the dam,
Hoe and shovel in either hand,
Trying to save every woman and man
And child who was sick with fever.

When I die let my ashes float down the Green River
Let my soul roll on up to the Rochester dam

"It's a damn tough life
far from home and wife
that we astronauts undergo
and we don't much care
when the mission's done
how far the ship did go."
--Falling Down on New Jersey, Mitchel Burnside Clapp

... To the Grand Coulee Dam
where the waters run down.
Every state in the Union we migrants have been.
We come with the dust and we go
With the wind.

--"Pastures of Plenty" by Woody Guthrie

My first play was a leftover from "nine" (it only went up to seven, but was stuck in my head).

They ended up in Amsterdam
They ended up in Amsterdam
Amster, Amster, dam dam dam...

Once there were Three Fishermen (a little kids' song that exists so that kids in the old days could say "dam dam dam)

When I was a young girl, I had me a cowboy
He weren't much to look at, just a free rambling man
But that were a long time, and no matter how I try
The years just flow by like a broken down dam

This is the moment!
Damn all the odds!
This day, or never,
I'll sit forever
With the gods!

And we don't give a damn when we drink our rum
With the girls of old Maui

He's a poor damn fool
That's gone and let you go now.
