lirik lagu willi carlisle - penny evans (live)

[verse 1]
well, my name is penny evans and my age is twenty~one
i’m a widow of the war that’s being fought in vietnam
and i have two infant daughters, oh, i do the best i can
when they say the war is over, i tell ‘em all it just began

[verse 2]
i remember i was seventeen when first i met young bill
at his father’s grand piano, we played good old “heart and soul”
and i only knew the left~hand part, but he could play the right so well
he’s the only boy i’ve slept with, he’s the only one i will

[verse 3]
and it’s first we had a baby girl, oh, we had two good years
after that, the draft notice came, we parted without tears
now it’s nine months from our last night when our second babe appears
six months later now this letter comes, confirming all my fears

[verse 4]
and now it’s every month i get a check from an army bureaucrat
and it’s every month i tear it up and send the d~mn thing back
do they think that i can be bought off? do they think i’ll fall for that?
i won’t take this bl~~dy money, it can’t bring my billy back

[verse 5]
now, i have not once cared for politics, all speeches i can’t understand
likewise, i’ll never take no charity from any living man
but it’s fifty~thousand billys dead in that unhappy land
and that makes fifty~thousand “heart and souls” being played with just one hand
[verse 6]
and my name is penny evans and my age is twenty~one
and i’m a widow of the war that’s being fought in vietnam
and i have two infant daughters, god, i’m glad i’ve had no sons
when they say the war is over, i tell ‘em all it’s just begun
