Robert Cray - Sonny lyrics

Sonny was my best friend He got called to Vietnam Sonny was my best friend He went away to Vietnam Said, "Watch out for my wife and baby" "And I'll count on you when I'm gone." I looked in every day Just like Sonny said Ohhh, and I'm not sure just when We both lost our heads Then I'd hang around at night And fill her lonely, lonely bed Sonny made it home And he's proud of what he's done Ohhh, but he can't walk too good, no And he'll never see the sun And his pain is just beginning I'm so ashamed of what I've done Sonny's pain is just beginning I'm so ashamed of what I've done
