He was a soldier
He always was
He left this city to fight for America
And we fell in love to music
We were just kids
We didn't have time to be sorry
for what we did
And I say hey boy
It'll be OK in the end
And if this life doesn't give you
The love you expext
There's always the next
She was a pretty Texas girl
An answer to his prayers
He called me to tell me
He'd fallen in love with her
She sang like an angel
Loved like a friend
And she made my soldier believe
He could live again
When she said
And I say hey boy
It'll be OK in the end
And if this life doesn't give you
The love you expext
There's always the next
So I'll be a gambler
And he'll be home free
He'll marry Texas and I'll marry melody
So love like my soldier
Fight for what's true
And smile at the gates'cause they hate
Don't belong to you
And I say hey boy
It'll be OK in the end
And if this life doesn't give you
The love you expext
There's always the next
