Lyrics

MY SOLDIER BOY

Woke up this morning the sun was shining
Lucky to be alive
Don't know how I got home last evening
Hope I didn't drive

Too many shooters, going to my head
Too many cowboys, trying for my bed
I don't remember how they looked or what they said
Still longing for my soldier boy instead

Remember when we met, and you were shy and quiet
You acted so afraid
We started talking, I thought you were a riot
You stole my heart away

Too many shooters, going to my head
Too many cowboys, trying for my bed
I don't remember how they looked or what they said
Still longing for my soldier boy instead

Too many shooters, going to my head
Too many cowboys, trying for my bed
I don't remember how they looked or what they said
Still longing for my soldier boy instead

Musical Bridge

So proud to fight and serve the cause of liberty
I understand why you left and I agree
But where the hell does that leave me

Too many shooters, going to my head
Too many cowboys, trying for my bed
I wish that they were all, my soldier boy instead
But you went off to war and wound up, you wound up dead

Too many shooters, going to my head
Too many cowboys, trying for my bed
I wish that they'd have gone and you'd have stayed instead
But you went off to war and wound up, and wound up dead
