Soldier's Last Letter

In the style of

Ernest Tubb

Lyrics

when the postman
delivered a letter
it filled
her dear heart
full of joy

but she didn't know
till she read the inside
it was the last one
from her darling boy

dear mom
was the way
that it started
i miss you so much
it went on

mom i didn't know
that i loved you so
but i'll prove it
when this war is won

i'm writing this down
in a trench mom
don't scold
if it isn't so neat

you know as you did
when i was a kid
and i'd come home
with mud on my feet

the captain
just gave us
our orders
and mom
we will carry
them through

i'll finish this letter
the first chance i get
but now i'll just say
i love you

then the mother's
old hands
began to tremble
and she
fought against
tears in her eyes

but they came
unashamed
for there was no name
and she knew that
her darling had died

that night
as she knelt
by her bedside
she prayed
lord above
hear my plea

and protect
all the sons
that are fighting
tonight
and dear god
keep america free
