I Left My Home

Your daddy was home when you left (you left)
Your mama was home when you left (you left)
Your sister was home when you left (you left)
Your brother was home when you left (you left)

The dog was home when you left (you left)
The cat was home when you left (you left)
The fish was home when you left (you left)
Your daddy, your mama, your brother, your sister
The dog, the cat, the fish was home when you left (you left)
And that's the reason you left (you left)

I left my home (I left my home)
To join the army (to join the army)
I left my home (I left my home)
To join the army (to join the army)

The day I left (the day I left)
My mama cried (my mama cried)
She thought that I (she thought that I)
Would surely die (would surely die)

I left my wife (I left my wife)
Standin' at the door (standin' at the door)
She knew that I (she knew that I)
Would die at war (would die at war)

I left my son (I left my son)
Playin' in the yard (playin' in the yard)
Seeing Daddy leave (seeing Daddy leave)
Made him cry so hard (made him cry so hard)

The day I left (the day I left)
I shook my daddy's hand (I shook my daddy's hand)
He said that I (he said that I)
Had become a man (had become a man)

Ooh-wee, ooh-wee (ooh-wee, ooh-wee)
Ooh-wee, ooh-wee (ooh-wee, ooh-wee)
Ooh-wee, ooh-wee (ooh-wee, ooh-wee)
To join the army (to join the army)
