Testo Billy Don't Be A Hero
The marchin' band came down along Main StreetThe soldier-blues fell in behindI looked across and there I saw BillyWaiting to go and join the lineAnd with her head upon his shoulderHis young and lovely fiancee>From where I stood, I saw she was cryin'And through her tears I heard her say"Billy, don't be a hero, don't be a fool with your life""Billy, don't be a hero, come back and make me your wife"And as he started to go she said "Billy, keep your head lo-o-ow""Billy, don't be a hero, come back to me"The soldier-blues were trapped on a hillsideThe battle raging all aroundThe sergeant cried "We've got to hang on, boys""We got to hold this piece a'ground""I need a volunteer to ride up""And bring us back some extra men"And Billy's hand was up in a momentForgettin' all the words she saidShe said"Billy, don't be a hero, don't be a fool with your life""Billy, don't be a hero, come back and make me your wife"And as he started to go she said "Billy, keep your head lo-o-ow""Billy, don't be a hero, come back to me"I heard his fiancee got a letter hat told how Billy died that dayThe letter said that he was a heroShe should be proud he died that wayI heard she threw that letter away
