He was a soldier, he always was
He left his city to fight for America
And we fell in love to music, we were just kids
We didn't have time to be sorry for what we did

And I said, "Hey, boy what you crying for?
It'll be okay in the end"
And if this life doesn't give you the love you expect
There's always the next

She was a pretty Texas girl, an answer to his prayers
He called me to tell me he'd fallen in love with her
She sang like an angel, loved like a friend
And she made my soldier believe he could live again

When she said, "Hey, boy what you crying for?
It'll be okay in the end"
And if this life doesn't give you the love you expect
There's always the next

So I'll be a gambler and he'll be home free
He'll marry Texas and I'll marry melody
So love like my soldier, fight for what's true
And smile at the gates 'cuz their hate don't belong to you

Hey, boy what you crying for?
It'll be okay in the end
And if this life doesn't give you the love you expect
There's always the next

Hey, boy what you crying for?
It'll be okay in the end
And if this life doesn't give you the love you expect
There's always the next

If this life doesn't give you the love you expect
There's always the next
There's always the next
