Billy Don't Be A Hero - Paper Lace

Written by：Mitch Murray/Peter Callander

The marching band came down along main street

The soldier blues fell in behind

I looked across and there I saw billy

Waiting to go and join the line

And with her head upon his shoulder

His young and lovely fiancé e

From where I stood I saw she was cryin'

And through her tears I heard her say

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 billy started to go she said

Keep your pretty head low

Billy don't be a hero

Come back to me

The soldier blues were trapped on a hillside

The battle ragin' all around

The sergeant cried we've gotta hang on boys

We gotta hold this piece of ground

I need a volunteer to ride out

And bring us back some extra men

And billy's hand was up in a moment

Forgetting all the words she said

She said 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 billy started to go she said

Keep your pretty head low

Billy don't be a hero

Come back to me

I heard his fiancé e 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
