Travelin' Soldier

Lyrics
Two days past eighteen He was waitin' for the bus in his army green Sat down in a booth in a cafe there He 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 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 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 a travelin' soldier Our love will never end Waitin' for the soldier to come back again Never more to be alone When the letter said the soldier's comin' home So the letters came from an army camp In California, then Afghanistan And he told her of his heart, it might be love And all of the things that he was so scared of 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 a travelin' soldier Our love will never end Waitin' for the soldier to come back again Never more to be alone When the letter said the 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 you bow your head To the list of local soldiers dead" Cryin' all alone under the stands Was a piccolo player in the marchin' band And one name read, and nobody really cared But the pretty little girl with the 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 Never more to be alone When the letter said the 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 Never more to be alone When the letter said the soldier's comin' home
