Letra de Travelin’ Soldier - Cody Johnson

Two days past eighteen

He was waitin' on a bus in his army greens

Sat down in a booth in a cafe there

Gave his order to a girl with a bow in her hair

He's a little shy so she give him a smile

He said, "Would you mind sittin' down for a while

And talkin' to me? I'm feelin' pretty low"

She said, "I'm off in an hour and I know a place we can go"

So they went down and sat on the pier

He said, "I bet you got a boyfriend, but I don't care

'Cause I got no one to send a letter to

Would you mind if I sent one back here to you?"

I cried

Never gonna hold the hand of another guy

"Too young for him," they told her

Waitin' for the love of a travelin' soldier

Our love will never end

Waitin' for the soldier to come back again

Nevermore to be alone

When the letter says, "A soldier's comin' home"

So the letters came from an army camp

In California then Vietnam

And he told her of his heart, how it might be love

All of the things he was so scared of

He said, "When it's gettin' kinda rough over here

I sit and think about that day on the pier

And I close my eyes and see your pretty smile

Don't worry but I won't be able to write for a while"

I cried

Never gonna hold the hand of another guy

"Too young for him," they told her

Waitin' for the love of a travelin' soldier

Our love will never end

Waitin' for the soldier to come back again

Nevermore to be alone

When the letter says, "A soldier's comin' home"

One Friday night at a football game

The Lord's Prayer said and the anthem sang

And a man said, "Folks, would you bow your heads

For a list of the local Vietnam dead?"

Cryin' all alone underneath the stands

Was a piccolo player in the marchin' band

And one name read, and nobody really cared

'Cept that pretty little girl with a bow in her hair

I cried

Never gonna hold the hand of another guy

"Too young for him," they told her

Waitin' for the love of a travelin' soldier

Our love will never end

Waitin' for the soldier to come back again

Nevermore to be alone

When the letter says, "A soldier's comin' home"

When the letter says, "A soldier's comin' home"
