Travelin' Soldier
Two days past eighteen
- Two days past eighteen
- He was waitin' for the bus in his army greens
- Sat down in a booth at a cafe there
- Gave his order to the girl with a bow in her hair
- He's a little shy so she gave him a smile
- And he said would you 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 you got a boyfriend but I don't care
- I've got no one to send a letter to
- Would you 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 coming home
- So the letters came
- From an army camp
- In California then Vietnam
- And he told his heart
- It might be love
- And all of the things he was so scared of
- Said when it's gettin kinda tough over here
- I think about that day sittin' down at the pier
- And 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 coming home
- One Friday night at a football game
- The Lord's Prayer said and the anthem sang
- A man said folks would you bow your heads
- For the list of local Vietnam dead
- Cryin' all alone under the stands
- Was the piccolo player in the marching band
- And one name read and no one 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 coming home
- 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 coming home
Come to join my duet!
