Travelin' Soldier (Live Version)
In the style of
Lyrics
two days
past eighteen
he was waitin'
for the bus
in his army greens
sat down in a booth
at a café there
gave his order
to a girl
with a bow in her hair
he's a little shy
so she give him a smile
and 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
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 sent 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 the
travelin' soldier
our love
will never end
waitin' for
the soldier to
come back again
never more
to be alone
when the letter says
a soldier's
comin' home
so 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
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 the
travelin' soldier
our love
will never end
waitin' for
the soldier
to come back again
never more
to be alone
when the letter says
a soldier's
comin' home
one friday night
at a football game
the lord's prayer said
and the anthem sang
a man said folks
would ya bow
your heads
for a list-a local
vietnam dead
cryin' all alone
under the stands
was the
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 the
travelin' soldier
our love
will never end
waitin' for
the soldier to
come back again
never more
to be alone
when the letter says
a soldier's
comin' home
