...Ah,ah,ah,ah, |
A few months back, a young man |
Who had just rearched seventeen |
Waved "Good-bye" to the girl he loved (ra,ra,ra...) |
He had become a Marine |
As he waled down the dock |
With his head up in the air (ra,ra,ra...) |
Carrying his shoulders high |
He heard from the crowd |
a faint little whisper |
Good-bye,my darling,good-bye |
Lonely,Lonely,Lonely soldier boy |
(Good-bye,my darling,good-bye) |
As his ship pulled away |
And headed for the open sea |
The thought ran through his mind; (ra,ra,ra...) |
"Will she be true to me ?" |
As he stared at the picture |
He was holding in his hand (ra,ra,ra...) |
Tear drops filled his eyes |
And for the very last time |
He heard her whisper, |
"Good-bye,my darling,good-bye" |
Lonely,Lonely,Lonely soldier boy |
(Good-bye,my darling,good-bye) |
Now his ship was returning |
The anchor soon would be down |
They were coming in the dock (ra,ra,ra...) |
People were all around |
He searched through the crowd |
For that certain little face (ra,ra,ra...) |
Nowhere could it be found |
So,he packed up his gear |
Like a lonely soldier boy |
And headed off to town |
Lonely,lonely,Lonely soldier boy |
Lonely,lonely,Lonely soldier boy |
