There's an old transistor
Standing in the mess
And like any soldier
I was homesick too I guess

On the air I heard my name
And rank and company
No-one really knows
How much that message meant to me

And that announcer lady-o
Talking on the radio
Sounded like an angel when she said

Keep your head down
Keep your feet dry
Keep your chin up
Cos you know I
Want to see you again
I can't wait till then
You're the only one in my life

There's a little lady
Waiting there at home
And like any woman
She feels a bit alone

Just the other day, she heard my message on the air
When she heard her name, it almost felt like I was there

And that announcer lady-o
Talking on the radio
Sounded like an angel when she said

Keep your head down
Keep your feet dry
Keep your chin up
Cos you know I
Want to see you again
I can't wait till then
You're the only one in my life

Keep your head down
Keep your feet dry
Keep your chin up
Cos you know I
Want to see you again
I can't wait till then
You're the only one in my life
