Don't cry don't you cry
No don't you shed a tear
Though I know that you're sad and blue
I believe girl that he loves you
and I know that he's thinking of you too
but a letter has come (has come)
a letter has come
And now he must join
the boys in Vietnam
oohhh Vietnam
oohhh Vietnam
Oh he'll be coming back with victory in his hand
and you'll be proud that he is your man
No more lonely bowling alleys dawnin
No more lonely movies
No more lonely nights at home because he'll be back with you
(he'll be back)
I know he's coming back to you
(he'll be back)
oohh just be wait for your truth
(he'll be back)
Can you make it back alright
(he'll be back)
In with you every night
though a letter has come
(has come)
A letter has come
And now he must join
the boys in Vietnam
