Lyrics

[Verse 1] Oh, I've just come from the land of the sun From a war that must be won in the name of truth With our soldiers so brave, your freedom we will save With our rifles and grenades and some help from God [Chorus] And I want to see my family My wife and child waitin' for me I've got to go home I've been so alone, you see [Verse 2] You just can't believe the joy I did receive When I finally got my leave and I was goin' home Oh, I flew through the sky and my convictions could not lie For my country I would die and I will see it soon [Chorus] And I want to see my family My wife and child waitin' for me I've got to go home I've been so alone, you see [Verse 3] When I walked through the door, my wife, she laid upon the floor And with tears, her eyes did soar, I did not know why Then I looked into her hand and I saw the telegram Said that I was a brave, brave man, but that I was dead [Chorus] And I want to see my family My wife and child waitin' for me I've got to go home I've been so alone, you see [Chorus] I want to see my family My wife and child waitin' for me I've got to go home I've been so alone, you see
