[1st verse:] "Over there" in France In a big advance Little Johnny stood the test Johnny held his ground Now he struts around With a medal on his chest There's a happy look in his eyes And ev'ry now and then he cries: [Refrain:] I'm gonna pin my medal on the girl I left behind She deserves it more than I For the way she said "goodbye" You should have seen her try to keep away the tears that blind A braver hero Would be hard to find She puts a smile in ev'ry letter she signs But I can read what's in her heart between the lines And when I get back Yes, when I get back I'm gonna pin my medal on the girl I left behind Songtexte[2nd verse:] When the boys come home From across the foam To the girls they love the best There'll be more than one Little Yankee son With a medal on his chest When the drive is over this Spring A lot of soldier boys will sing Aus Songtexte Mania
