Barry Sadler - I'm a Lucky One lyrics

I'm going home, my tour is done I'm going home, I'm a lucky one But I left friends behind me Who won't come home no more Yes, many friends remain forever On that bloody shore But at night when I sleep I know my dreams will be, about my friends I left across the sea I'll hear Virba, Young, and Horn laugh again out loud We'll all be together in a happy crowd But then I hear the sound of bullets whining overhead Feel the crash of mortars, and all my friends are dead My friends they fought and gave their all My friends they died for freedom's call As my dream is ending, they'll come and say good-bye Though I'm sound asleep, a tear I'll cry And they say something which fills my heart with pain: Tell them about us, Sadler; don't let us die in vain I'm going home, my tour is done I'm going home, I'm a lucky one
