Johnny Cash - Soldier Boy Lyrics
Official




Here comes the boy with a backpack on
He's going anywhere but home
Be some changes while he's gone
He's got a job to carry on

Here comes a boy in a dark green suit
Size eleven combat boots
He can run and he can shoot
He's got a gun, it goes root-toot-toot

Here's comes a jet with a tail of white
He'll be there before daylight
Got some wrongs to be made right
May not return but I think he might

Here comes a ship sailing out to sea
Boys on deck for all to see
Wavin' bye to you and me
Keep the land and the water free

Solider boy, walkin' boy, sailor boy and flyin' boy
You won't be no boy no more
After what you're going for
And all you women, thanks to you
Doing what you have to do
Praying for you till you're through
Doodle, doodle, doo, doodle, doo, doo, doo

Here comes the boy with a backpack on
He's going anywhere but home
Be some changes while he's gone
He's got a job to carry on

Solider boy, walkin' boy, sailor boy and flyin' boy
You won't be no boy no more
After what you're going for
And all you women, here's to you
Doing what you have to do
Peace because of all of you
Doodle, doodle, doo, doodle, doo, doo, doo
