Oscar Harris - Soldiers Prayer lyrics

<b>Soldiers Prayer</b> by <i>Oscar Harris</i><br />I woke up in the middle of the night

And I heard my buddy crying

I bent over and looked overside

And I heard, I heard him praying

And he said

Wait for me, my love, oh, darling

You gotta wait for me

Don't you let nobody, nobody

Steal your love from me

Attention!

And I would like to lend your ears

While I dry my tears

And you don't have to pity me

But the same happened to me

And I said

Wait for me, my love, oh, darling

You gotta wait for me

Don't you let nobody, nobody

Steal your love from me

Attention!

This is my soldier's prayer

My soldier's prayer, oh, darling

I hope you understand

I hope you understand that I'm a lonely man

I don't know why, I just can't see why

Why you should leave me, baby

I just don't mind, just don't mind beggin'

You down on my knees, yeah

Wait for me, my love, oh, darling

You gotta wait for me

Don't you let nobody, nobody

Steal your love from me

(Not even the sergeant, baby)

Wait for me, my love, oh, darling

You gotta wait for me

Don't you let nobody, nobody

Steal your love from me

(Not even the captain)

Wait for me, my love, oh, darling

You gotta wait for me

Don't you let nobody, nobody

Steal your love from me

Wait for me, my love, oh, darling

You gotta wait for me

Don't you let nobody, nobody

Steal your love from me
