Dear Uncle Sam |
|
I know you're a busy man |
|
And tonight, I write to you |
|
Through tears with a trembling hand |
|
My darling answered |
|
When he got that call from you |
|
You said you really need him |
|
But you don't need him like I do |
|
Don't misunderstand |
|
I know he's fighting for our land |
|
I really love my country |
|
But I also love my man |
|
He proudly wears the colors |
|
Of the old red, white and blue |
|
While I wear a heartache |
|
Since he left me for you |
|
{Dear Uncle Sam |
|
I just got your telegram |
|
And I can't believe that this is me |
|
Shaking like I am |
|
For it said, "I'm sorry to inform you"} |
