Soldier’s Plea lyrics

[Verse 1]
While I'm away, darling
I hope you'll think of me
Remember, I'm over here
Fighting to keep us free

[Chorus]
Just be my little girl
And always be true
And I'll be a faithful (A faithful)
Soldier boy to you (Soldier boy to you)

[Verse 2]
They say I'm now a man
And should be starting hard
But I don't think I'll make it, dear
If you don't play your part

[Chorus]
Just say you'll be my girl
And always be true
And I'll be a faithful (A faithful)
Soldier boy to you (Soldier boy to you)

[Bridge]
(Soldier boy to you)
[Verse 3]
We all must do our share
And darling, I don't mind
The only thing that's grieving me
Is leaving you behind

[Chorus]
Just say you'll be my girl and always be true
And I'll be a loving soldier boy
And I'll be a faithful soldier boy
And I'll be a loving soldier boy to you (Soldier boy to you)

[Outro]
(Soldier boy to you)
(Soldier boy to you)
(Soldier boy to you)
