Jesse when you went to war And never did return Summer came and all the girls were Sitting on the lawn Looked down at all those letters And I knew that you were gone But I came back I came back Brothers inseparable Two rabble rousing boys Dreaming all the new mischief And making all the noise When Bobby bought that Chevy man Well I knew that we were poised
But I came back I came back And tonight when darkness comes I dream of how we were once And tonight when I sleep An angel hums Jesse when you went to war And never did return Summer came and all the girls were Sitting on the lawn Looked down at all those medals And I knew that you were gone But I came back I came back I came back
