 about a wheelchair-bound Vietnam veteran who's coming home from the war. He starts out by saying, the people are staring at me as they wheel me down the ramp toward my plane. The war is over for me. I've forgotten everything except the pain. In the chorus, you hear he's making a request for his homecoming meal. Mama, bake a pie. Daddy, kill a chicken. Your son is coming home. 11.35, Wednesday night. Your son is coming home.
