Lonely Soldier Lyrics

I'm a lonely soldier

Many miles from home

With a heart that's heavy

But with a will that's strong

Behind I left a woman

So, so dear to me

I'm off to fight a war

That they say could make me free

And I'm a lonely soldier

I'm a lonely soldier

I'm a lonely, lonely, lonely, lonely soldier

Won't somebody have mercy on me

Mike's little son, Junior

Smiling, but with sympathy

All confused he asks a question

He said "Daddy, why must this war be?"

I tried so very hard, yes I did

So very hard I tried to explain

But it seemed like all effort and trying

It all seemed to be in vain

And oh lord, tired of hearing people crying

Lord. I'm tired of seeing people dying

But I promise to wait patiently

For that sweet voice of liberty

And oh, I'm so lonely

[To fade]
