The soldiers tell a story
Of a letter and a love so true
So gather around me and listen
And I shall tell it to you
Around a weary campfire
The soldier read his note
A letter from his dear sweetheart
And this is what she wrote
I miss you dear so deeply
Please, sweetheart home won't you come
To hold our newborn baby
Your brand new darling son
At dawn a raging battle
How the cannonballs did they fly
The soldier fought so bravely
And showed not fear to die
On the battlefield, I had lost him
As the smoke and the fire filled the sky
I noticed a small scrap of paper
As it came floating by
I miss you dear so deeply
Please, sweetheart home won't you come
To hold our newborn baby
Your brand new darling son
The battlefield now deserted
The dead lay, one by one
I never again saw the soldier
I only found his gun
I miss you dear so deeply
Please, sweetheart home won't you come
To hold our newborn baby
Your brand new darling son
To hold our newborn baby
Your brand new darling son

The soldiers tell a story
Of a letter and a love so true
So gather around me and listen
And I shall tell it to you
Around a weary campfire
The soldier read his note
A letter from his dear sweetheart
And this is what she wrote
I miss you dear so deeply
Please, sweetheart home won't you come
To hold our newborn baby
Your brand new darling son
At dawn a raging battle
How the cannonballs did they fly
The soldier fought so bravely
And showed not fear to die
On the battlefield, I had lost him
As the smoke and the fire filled the sky

To hold our newborn baby
