Travelin' Soldier
In the style of
Lyrics
two days
past eighteen
he was
waitin' for the bus
in his army greens
sat down in a booth
caf� there
gave his order
to a girl
with a bow in her hair
he's a little shy
but she give him
a smile
so he said
would ya mind
sittin' down
for a while
and talkin' to me
i'm feelin' a little low
she said
i'm off in an hour
and i know
where we can go
a-so they went down
and they sat
on the pier
he said i bet ya
got a boyfriend
but i don't care
i got no one
to send a letter to
would ya mind
if i send one back here
to you
i cried
never gonna
hold the hand
of another guy
too young for him
they told her
waitin' for the love
of a travelin' soldier
our love
will never end
waitin' for
the soldier to
come back again
nevermore to be alone
when the letter says
my soldier's
comin' home
well the letters
came from
an army camp
in california
then vietnam
and he told her
of his heart
it might be love
and all of the things
he was so scared of
he said
when it's gettin'
kinda rough over here
i think of that day
sittin' down at the pier
and i close my eyes
and see
your pretty smile
a-don't worry
but i won't be able
to write for a while
i cried
never gonna
hold the hand
of another guy
too young for him
they told her
waitin' for the love
of a travelin' soldier
our love
will never end
waitin' for
the soldier to
come back again
nevermore to be alone
when the letter says
my soldier's
comin' home
oh oh oh
one friday night
at a football game
the lord's prayer said
and the anthem sang
a man said folks
would you
bow your head
for the list of local
vietnam dead
cryin' all alone
under the stands
was a piccolo player
in the marchin' band
and one name read
and nobody
really cared
but a pretty
little girl
with a bow in her hair
i cried
never gonna
hold the hand
of another guy
too young for him
they told her
waitin' for the love
of a travelin' soldier
our love
will never end
waitin' for
the soldier to
come back again
nevermore to be alone
when the letter says
my soldier's comin'
i cried
never gonna
hold the hand
of another guy
too young for him
they told her
waitin' for the love
of a travelin' soldier
our love
will never end
waitin' for
the soldier to
come back again
nevermore to be alone
when the letter says
my soldier's
comin' home
oh oh oh
