Soldier Lyrics
"Soldier"
He was a soldier
He always was
He left his city to fight for America
And we fell in love to music
We were just kids
We didn't have time to be sorry for what we did
[chorus]
And I said hey boy
Whatcha cryin' for
It'll be OK in the end
And if this life doesn't give you the love you expect
There's always the next
She was a pretty Texas girl
The answer to his prayers
He called me to tell me he'd fallen in love with her
She sang like an angel
[ooooh]
Loved like a friend
And she made my soldier believe he could live again
When she said
[chorus]
Hey boy, whatcha cryin' for
It'll be ok
In the end.
And if this life
Doesn't give you the love you expect,
There's always the next...
[hum...]
So I'll be a gambler
And He'll be home free
He'll marry Texas and I'll marry melody
So love like my soldier
Fight for what's true
And smile at the gates 'cause their hate don't belong to you
[chorus]
Hey, boy, whatcha cryin' for
It'll be ok in the end,
And if this life doesn't give you the love you expect
There's always
The next,
Hey, boy, whatcha crying for,
I'll be OK in the end,
And if this life doesn't give you the love you expect,
There'a always the next,
And if this life doesn't give you the love you expect, there's always the next...
There's always the next...
