Soldier's Plea - Marvin Gaye

While I’m away, darling

How often do you think of me?

Remember, I’m over here

Fighting to keep us free

Just be my little girl and always be true

And I’ll be a faithful soldier boy to you

They say I’m now a man and should be spotted hard

But I don’t think I’ll make it, dear

If you don’t play your part

Just say you’ll be my girl and always be true

And I’ll be a faithful soldier boy to you

Soldier boy to you

We all must do our share

And darling, I don’t mind

The only thing that’s greed in me is leaving you behind

Just say you’ll be my girl and always be true

And I’ll be a loving soldier boy

I’ll be a faithful soldier boy

I’ll be a loving soldier boy to you
