dixie_chicks Home Traveling Soldier Two days past eighteen He was waiting for the bus in his army greens Sat down at a booth at a cafe there Gave his order to a girl with a bow in her hair Hes a little shy so she gives hima smile And he said would you mind sittin down for a while ANd talkin to me Im feelin a little low she said Im off in an hour and I kow where we can go So they went down and they sat on a pier He said I bet you got a boyfriend but I dont car I got no one to send a letter to would you mind if I send one back here to you Chorus: I cried never gonna hold the hand of another guy too young for him they told her waitin for the love of a traveling soldier Our love will never end waitin for the soldier to come back again Never more to be alone when the letter said a soldiers comin home So the letters came from an army camp in calafornia then Vietnam And he told her of his heart It might be love and all the things he was so scared of He said when its gettin kinda rough over here I think of that day sittin down on the pier And I close my eyes and I see your pretty smile Dont worry but I wont be able to write for a while Chorus One friday night at a football game The lords prayer said and the anthem sang A man said folks would you bow your heads For a list of local Vietnam dead Cryin all alone under the stands Was a piccolo player in the marching band And one name read and noboddy really cared But a pretty little girl with a bow in her hair Chorus(x2) |
