Soldier Boy

Stand brave my soldier boy For your home and country Stand strong my soldier boy For my weak heart Sing loud my soldier boy So I may hear you in the night Listen hard my soldier boy I sang a song for you Shoot straight my soldier boy Protect me from harm But shoot not, my soldier boy When it need not be done Let your heart beat my soldier boy To the beat of a thousand hearts Let your heart beat, my soldier boy For your loved ones at home I miss you my soldier boy For too long you have been gone I miss you my soldier boy For home does not feel like home Come home my soldier boy When the fighting is done Come home my soldier boy To hear our wedding bells' song
