Natalie Merchant - Soldier, Soldier [tekst, tłumaczenie i interpretacja piosenki]

[Chorus 1:]
Said, “soldier, now soldier
Would you marry me
Before the fight comes on?”

[Chorus 2:]
“How can i marry
Such a pretty little girl
When i got no suit to put on?”

[Chorus 3:]
Well she went to the dry goods store
Hard as she could run
She bought the finest
Little suit in the store
“Come on soldier put this on”

[Chorus 1]

[Chorus 2:]
“How can i marry
Such a pretty little girl
When i got no shoes to put on”

[Chorus 3]

[Chorus 1]

[Chorus 2:]
“How can i marry
Such a pretty little girl
When i got no hat to put on?”

[Chorus 3:]
Well she went to the dry goods store
Hard as she could run
She bought the finest
Little hat in the store
“come on soldier put this on”

[Chorus 1]

[Chorus 2:]
“How can i marry
Such an ugly little girl
When i got a pretty wife at home?”
