Billy and Sue - B.J. THOMAS[00:00:00]
This is a story about Billy and Sue[00:00:09]
They were as in love as were any two[00:00:13]
And yet Billy had to die[00:00:16]
And when you hear the reason why[00:00:21]
You'll hang your head and cry[00:00:24]
Billy and Sue met the first day of school[00:00:29]
And ever since lived by the golden rule[00:00:33]
Beacause they'll do unto others[00:00:37]
What you wouldn't want done to you[00:00:41]
You'd have to be a fool[00:00:44]
This mutual agreement of love and trust[00:00:49]
They would travel the road[00:00:53]
To marriage or bust[00:00:55]
And when Billy was old enough to take a wife[00:00:57]
He was old enough to fight for his country[00:01:01]
And his way of life[00:01:04]
Sues letters came every day[00:01:10]
Strengthened his cause they showed him the way[00:01:14]
To fight for his country and the girl he loved[00:01:17]
That's a soilders only pay[00:01:24]
But then Billy heard no more from Sue[00:01:29]
He was worried sick but what could he do[00:01:33]
The bullets were screaming as he hugged the ground[00:01:37]
And back home Sue was running round[00:01:41]
Billy was getting less and less strong[00:01:49]
His hope his fate was almost gone[00:01:53]
And then like a miracle the letter appeared[00:01:57]
Billy tore the letter open and he read dear John[00:02:01]
A look came over Billy that would scare a ghost[00:02:09]
Familiar look seen on soldiers coast to coast[00:02:12]
And even though the air was filled with lead[00:02:16]
Billy jumped up they shot him dead[00:02:20]
Billy was buried in a far away grave[00:02:29]
It read for his country his life he gave[00:02:32]
But that epitaph was only in part[00:02:36]
He didn't die from a bullet but he died from a broken heart[00:02:40]
