Feel so sorry for you baby, there's nothin' I can do.
Uncle Sam has taken your brother, so many miles from you.
I thought I would be here with you baby, but it looks like they gonna call me too.

Please do the best you can, I'll be back to you some day.
Please do the best you can, I'll be back to you some day.
I will keep on fighting, with you in my heart I'll battle my way.

To keep you from sufferin', baby I don't mind dyin'.
Every Jap I kill, that'll be peace for your poor little mind.
I know I can't kill them all, but I'll give them a heck of a time.

I got three more nights, and three more days with you.
I love you so much, and I know you love me too.
I will die fighting baby, tryin' to make my way back to you.

You will see that headlight shinin', far as your poor little eyes can see.
You can watch that headlight shinin', far as your poor little eyes can see.
And you can tell the world that I'm fightin', but would really belong to me.
