Last Foxhole Songtext

[Oh Lord let it be the last foxhole]
He lived by my side on an Island in the sea
skif cdec bii,?
A place called Okeinawa and just like me
He was fighting in the army against Japan
Our home was a foxhole made of clay blood and sand
[The last foxhole oh the last foxhole oh Lord let it be the last foxhole]

Soon the war was over and we went our seperate ways
He went home to Brooklyn but in the army I chose to stay
Now he often wrote me the letters and told me about his fears
When his son became a man would he had to live
[The last foxhole oh the last foxhole oh Lord let it be the last foxhole]

Then came Korea they sent my company
And that same Brooklyn boy right back with me
But I left him there in the grave deep and cold
They just covered him up in his last foxhole
[The last foxhole oh the last foxhole oh Lord let it be the last foxhole]

Well the years went by now here I am in another foxhole in VietNam
And there's a boy from Brooklyn behind a gun
They couldn't send his daddy so they sent his son
[Oh the last foxhole oh the last foxhole oh Lord let it be the last foxhole]
