Hank Snow - Soldier`s Last Letter слова песни
Recorded by Hank SnowWhen the postman delivered a letterIt filled her old heart full of joyBut she didn`t know till she read the insideIt was the last one from her darlin` boy"Dear mom" was the way that it started"I miss you so much" it went onMy mind did not know that I love you soBut I`ll prove it when this war is wonI`m writing this down in a trench momDon`t scold if it isn`t so neatYou know as you did when I was a kidAnd came home with mud on my feetNow the captain just gave us our ordersAnd mom we will carry them thrui`ll finish this letter the first chance I getBut for now I`ll just say I love youThen the mother`s old hands began to trembleAnd she fought against tears in her eyesBut they came on her chin for there was no nameAnd she knew that her darlin` boy had diedThat night as she knelt by her bedsideShe prayed Lord above hear my pleaAnd protect all the sons that are fighting tonightAnd dear God keep our Canada free
