I Feel Like I am Fixin' to Die, Rag

This song inspired many to join the anti-war movement. The lyrics are filled with anger and frustration at the meaning of the war and the impact it was having on the country.

Answer:

Fixin to die like a dog war composed by Country Joe and the Fish. IT was written by Joe McDonald and was released in October 1, 1965. Just after its release, it became one of the most important protest songs against Vietnam War. Critics consider it as a classic of the counterculture era as this song was famous among the hippies. This song was preceded by the track Fish Cheer.
