Just a few more hours, few more happy days.
Just a few more hours, and a few more happy days.
Then I'll be headed for some God forsaken place.

You can't keep the things in life you really love.
You can't keep the things you love no matter how you try.
Day by day, deep down inside, you can feel your poor self slowly die.

Just to think I've got to leave you and I just can't help myself.
Just to think I've got to leave you and I just can't help myself.
But in my poor heart there'll never be no body else.

Baby please don't cry that's something that I just can't stand.
Baby please don't cry its something that I just can't stand.
In my heart I know I'm not the only man

Baby please wait for me, I'll soon be back with you.
Baby please wait for me, I'll soon be back with you
If I can't bring you a Jap I'll bring you a head or two.
