bo donaldson and the heywoods
best of bo donaldson and the heywoods
billy don’t be a hero
the marching band came down along main street
the soldier blues fell in behind
from where i stood, there i saw billy
waiting to go and join the line.
and with her head upon his shoulder
his young and lovely fiancée
from where i stood i saw she was crying
and through her tears i heard her say

chorus:
“billy don’t be a hero
don’t be a fool with your life.
billy don’t be a hero
come back and make me your wife”
and as they started to go
she said “keep your pretty head low”
“billy don’t be a hero, come back to me.”

the soldier blues are trapped on a hillside
the battle raging all around.
the sergeant cried we’ve got to hang on boys
we’ve got to hold this piece of ground.
i need a volunteer to ride up
and bring us back some extra men
and billy’s hand was up in a moment
forgetting all the words she said.
she said

chorus

i heard his fiancée got a letter
that told how billy died that day
the letter said that he was a hero
she should be proud he died that way.
i heard she threw the letter
away.

chorus
