The marchin' band came down along Main Street The soldier-blues fell in behind I looked across and there I saw Billy Waiting to go and join the line And with her head upon his shoulder His young and lovely fiancee From where I stood, I saw she was cryin' And through her tears I heard her say
'Billy, don't be a hero, don't be a fool with your life' 'Billy, don't be a hero, come back and make me your wife' And as he started to go she said 'Billy, keep your head lo-o-ow' 'Billy, don't be a hero, come back to me'
The soldier-blues were trapped on a hillside The battle raging all around The sergeant cried 'We've got to hang on, boys' 'We got to hold this piece a'ground' 'I need a volunteer to ride up' 'And bring us back some extra men' 更多更详尽歌词 在 ※ Mojim.com 魔镜歌词网 And Billy's hand was up in a moment Forgettin' all the words she said
She said 'Billy, don't be a hero, don't be a fool with your life' 'Billy, don't be a hero, come back and make me your wife' And as he started to go she said 'Billy, keep your head lo-o-ow' 'Billy, don't be a hero, come back to me'
I heard his fiancee got a letter That told how Billy died that day The letter said that he was a hero She should be proud he died that way I heard she threw that letter away
MILITARY drums and fifes to end
