Isetta Preston - A Soldier Died (A Mother Cried)

A boy is born that very day And would have been something to celebrate But people are crying and mommy was sad Cause he would never know his dad That little boy was growing fast He went to school and did was best And after school time it was really fun A soldier with a wooden gun A soldier died and no one died Than came the war and he had to serve A time so hard it was killing nerves His best friend had no luck at all They shot him down he saw him fall A soldier died a mother cried A boy is born that very day And would have been something to celebrate But people are crying and mommy was sad Cause he will never know his dad A soldier died a mother cried This story is true, but is still goes on Cause every minute a boy has gone And wars there are plenty, it comes to no end Its part of this world boy, a pity my friend A soldier died, a mother cried A soldier died, a mother cried A soldier died, a mother cried
