Dave Dudley - Operation X lyrics



(Well as long as there's a truck I won't forget Korea and Operation X)

I won't forget the year of '54 I drove a truck in that Korean war

Haulin' GI's to the front and back in a truck they called Duce and a half

The orders called it Operation X we had to move in just an hour or less

First echelon and maintenance that was all and there were twenty men I had to haul

That south Korean sky was smoky black I was third in convoy from the back

But twenty minutes out they hit the nail it was mortar they were sendin' in the mail

We'll scatter out and find a hole they said cause Operation X is catchin' lead

I wheeled into a sideroad to the left drivin' to an almost certain death

I heard the steady creepin' of the shells the burnin' powder sent a deadly smell

And it happened as I pulled into a stop they hit us and I blacked out from the shock

Somehow I got back to the States alive and now I got another rig to drive

My bumper sign says Operation X it's there cause I'm the only one that's left

Operation X it's there cause I'm the only one that's left

Yeah it's there cause I'm the only one that's left

Operation X it's there cause I'm the only one that's left
