Remember I’m over here Fighting to keep us free Just be my little girl and always be true And I’ll be a faithful soldier boy to you [Verse 2] They say I’m now a man and should be spotted hard But I don’t think I’ll make it dear If you don’t play your part Just say you’ll be my girl and always be true And I’ll be a faithful soldier boy to you [Interlude] Soldier boy to you [Verse 3] We all must do our share And darling I don’t mind The only thing that’s greedin’ me is leaving you behind Just say you’ll be my girl and always be true And I’ll be a loving soldier boy I’ll be a faithful soldier boy I’ll be a loving soldier boy to you [Outro] Soldier boy to you soldier boy to you Soldier boy to you
