Travelin' Soldier — Country Dance Kings[00:00:01]
Two days past eighteen[00:00:02]
He was waiting for the bus in his army greens[00:00:04]
Sat down in a booth in a cafe there[00:00:07]
Gave his order to a girl with a bow in her hair[00:00:11]
He's a little shy but she give him a smile[00:00:14]
So he said would you mind sittin' down for a while[00:00:17]
And talking to me I'm feeling a little low[00:00:21]
She said I'm off in an hour and I know where we can go[00:00:27]
So they went down and they sat on the pier[00:00:38]
He said I bet you got a boyfriend but I don't care[00:00:41]
I got no one to send a letter to[00:00:45]
Would you mind if I sent one back here to you[00:00:51]
I cried[00:00:59]
Never gonna hold the hand of another guy[00:01:02]
Too young for him they told her[00:01:05]
Waitin' for the love of a travelin' soldier[00:01:09]
Our love will never end[00:01:12]
Waitin' for the soldier to come back again[00:01:15]
Never more to be alone when the letter says[00:01:19]
A soldier's coming home[00:01:24]
So the letters came from an army camp[00:01:32]
In California then Vietnam[00:01:35]
And he told her of his heart[00:01:38]
It might be love and all of the things he was so scared of[00:01:40]
He said when it's getting kinda rough over here[00:01:46]
I think of that day sittin' down at the pier[00:01:49]
And I close my eyes and see your pretty smile[00:01:52]
Don't worry but I won't be able to write for a while[00:01:59]
I cried[00:02:06]
Never gonna hold the hand of another guy[00:02:09]
Too young for him they told her[00:02:13]
Waitin' for the love of a travelin' soldier[00:02:16]
Our love will never end[00:02:20]
Waitin' for the soldier to come back again[00:02:23]
Never more to be alone when the letter says[00:02:27]
A soldier's coming home[00:02:31]
One Friday night at a football game[00:03:13]
The Lord's Prayer said and the anthem sang[00:03:17]
A man said folks would you bow your head[00:03:20]
For the list of local Vietnam dead[00:03:23]
Crying all alone under the stands[00:03:30]
Was the piccolo player in the marching band[00:03:33]
And one name read and nobody really cared[00:03:37]
But a pretty little girl with a bow in her hair[00:03:43]
I cried[00:03:51]
Never gonna hold the hand of another guy[00:03:54]
Too young for him they told her[00:03:58]
Waitin' for the love of a travelin' soldier[00:04:01]
Our love will never end[00:04:04]
Waitin' for the soldier to come back again[00:04:07]
Never more to be alone when the letter says[00:04:11]
A soldier's coming home[00:04:16]
