    Lyrics
    What a soldier left behind

    General says dig in deep
    There’s hell coming from the sky
    Just one thought to remember
    How your family’s do’ in tonight

    Johnny says he loves her
    As he closes his eyes
    Sarah cries for her mother
    On the field where she lies

    Chorus

    They did it for the nation
    So we don’t have to hide
    So on this cold and lonely evening
    We don’t have to cry

    Waiting by the telephone
    There’s a scared and worried wife
    He said he’d be home soon
    Just before he kissed his children goodbye

    A quiet knock at the front door
    As tears came to her eyes
    So sad to lose another
    Her little girl well be in her dreams tonight

    Chorus

    So as you say goodnight to your loved ones
    Please keep in mind
    The bed you tuck them in
    Is the bed a soldier left behind

    Chorus twice
