가사

[Verse 1]
Well, with buck shot eyes and a purple heart
I rolled down the national stroll
And with a big fat paycheck strapped to my hip sack
And a Shore Leave wristwatch underneath my sleeve
In a Hong Kong drizzle on Cuban heels
I rowed down the gutter to the blood bank
[Verse 2]
And I'd left all my papers on the Ticonderoga
And I was in bad need of a shave
I slopped at the corner on cold chow mein
And shot billiards with a midget until the rain stopped
And I bought a long sleeved shirt with horses on the front
And some gum and a lighter and a knife
And a new deck of cards with girls on the back
And I sat down and wrote a letter to my wife
[Verse 3]
And I said, "Baby, I'm so far away from home
And I miss my baby so
I can't make it by myself
I love you so"
[Verse 4]
And I was pacing myself
Tryin' to make it all last
And squeezing all the life out of a lousy 2 day pass
And I had a cold one at the dragon
With some Filipino floor show
And I talked baseball with a Lieutenant over a Singapore sling
And I wondered how the same moon outside over this Chinatown fair
Could look down on Illinois
And find you there
You know I love you, baby
[Verse 5]
I'm so far away from home
I'm so far away from home
And I miss my baby so
I can't make it by myself
I love you so
[Verse 6]
