You left our mother a hat full of your songs Our Pretty Sister - a wish upon a star Little brother - a stringless guitar Your other boys - your good looks and some charm We've never had to bend a pretty lady's arm With none of this - we've made it pretty far I don't remember when you left - Dad I guess I was too young I've never heard a word you've said or heard a song you've sung Like you I was a soldier Unlike you - I never left my Post You should have been there for Her Our Pretty sister - needed you the most

Sons and Daughter
You left our mother a hat full of your songs Our Pretty Sister - a wish upon a star Little brother - a stringless guitar Your other boys - your good looks and some charm We've never had to bend a pretty lady's arm With none of this - we've made it pretty far I don't remember when you left - Dad I guess I was too young I've never heard a word you've said or heard a song you've sung Like you I was a soldier Unlike you - I never left my Post You should have been there for Her Our Pretty sister - needed you the most
For my Pretty sister - Rest in Peace
