《Soldier’s Last Letter》歌词

[00:00:00] Soldier's Last Letter - Ernest Tubb

[00:00:14] When the postman delivered the letter

[00:00:21] Well it filled her old heart full of joy

[00:00:29] But she didn't know 'til she read the inside

[00:00:36] It was the last one from her darling boy

[00:00:43] Dear Mom was the way that it started

[00:00:51] I miss you so much it went on

[00:00:58] And Mom I didn't know that I loved you so

[00:01:05] But I'll prove it when this war is won

[00:01:12] I'm writing this down in a trench Mom

[00:01:20] So don't scold if it isn't so neat

[00:01:27] For you know as you did when I was a kid

[00:01:35] And would come home with mud on my feet

[00:01:42] Well the captain just gave us our orders

[00:01:49] And mom we will carry them through

[00:01:57] I'll finish this letter the first chance I get

[00:02:04] But for now I'll just say I love you

[00:02:11] Then the mother's old hands began to tremble

[00:02:19] As she fought against tears in her eyes

[00:02:26] For they came unashamed there was no name

[00:02:34] And she knew that her darlin' had died

[00:02:41] That night as she knelt down by her bedside

[00:02:49] She prayed Lord above hear my plea

[00:02:56] Protect all the sons who are fighting tonight

[00:03:03] And dear God keep America free
