Paper Lace - Billy Don't Be A Hero Lyrics

Send "Billy Don't Be A Hero" ringtone to your cell

The marchin' band came down along maine street

The soldier blues fell in behind

I looked across and there i saw billy

Waiting to go and join the line

And with her head upon his shoulder

His young and lovely fiancée

From where i stood i saw she was cryin'

And through her tears i heard her say

Billy don't be a hero don't be a fool with your life

Billy don't be a hero come back and make me your wife

And as billy started to go she said keep your pretty head low

Billy don't be a hero come back to me

The soldier blues were trapped on a hillside

The battle raging all around

The sergeant cried we've got to hang on boys

We've gotta hold this piece of ground

I need a volunteer to ride out

And bring us back some extra men

And billy's hand was up in a moment

Forgettin' all the words she said she said

Billy don't be a hero don't be a fool with your life

Billy don't be a hero come back and make me your wife

And as billy started to go she said keep your pretty head low

Billy don't be a hero come back to me

I heard his fiancée got a letter

That told how billy died that day

The letter said that he was a hero

She should be proud he died that way

I heard she threw the letter away
