My Soldier Boy In Green





              At seventeen I was naïve          At seventeen he made me feel
         I gave me to my soldier boy in green          My heart was for
             At seventeen I didn't know            My soldier boy in green
                  To take it slow                  At seventeen I felt the joy
                  Wish I had seen                      To have the love
          My own true love was not his aim            And he was  keen
                 He played a game                 My hero boy not yet a man
