From a war torn burned out skirmished town
Where bombs and bullets were common sound
All around in its history
The Pentagon is a mystery
The Pit was a place that I used to play
In a band called the Pentagon back in the day
It got me goin' and before too long
999 came along.
It was hot - Yeah
It was loud - So what
It was fierce
In the crowd
It was good to be alive - Yeah
In The Pit and The Pentagon in '˜65
The Pit and the Pentagon, The Pit and the Pentagon
The Pentagon was the place to be
For the power crazed military American free
Givin' the rest of us a worrying time
Putting our lives on the line
The Pit was a place that I used to play
In a band called the Pentagon back in the day
It got me goin' and before too long
999 came along.
It was hot - Yeah
It was loud - So what
It was fierce
In the crowd
It was good to be alive - Yeah
In The Pit and The Pentagon in '65
The Pit and the Pentagon, The Pit and the Pentagon
But we never worried about those things
The music was better than military wings
We played for our lives givin' our all
The fun, we loved the right to call
The Pit was a place that I used to play
In a band called the Pentagon back in the day
It got me goin' and before too long
999 came along.
It was hot - Yeah
It was loud - So what
It was fierce
In the crowd
It was good to be alive - Yeah
In The Pit and The Pentagon in '65
The Pit and The Pentagon, The Pit and The Pentagon
