Oh i've just come |
|
From the land of the sun |
|
From a war that must be won |
|
In the name of truth |
|
With our soldiers so brave |
|
Your freedom we will save |
|
With our rifles and grenades |
|
And some help from god |
|
I want to see my family |
|
My wife and child waiting for me |
|
I've got to go home |
|
I've been so alone, you see |
|
You just can't believe |
|
The joy i did recieve |
|
When i finally got my leave |
|
And i was going home |
|
Oh i flew through the sky |
|
My convictions could not lie |
|
For my country i would die |
|
And i will see it soon |
|
I want to see my family |
|
My wife and child waiting for me |
|
I've got to go home |
|
I've been so alone, you see |
|
When i walked through the door |
|
My wife she lay upon the floor |
|
And with tears her eyes were sore |
|
I did not know why |
|
Then i looked into her hand |
|
And i saw the telegram |
|
That said that i was a brave, brave man |
|
But that i was dead |
|
I want to see my family |
|
My wife and child waiting for me |
|
I've got to go home |
|
I've been so alone, you see |
