Leaves from the vine,

Falling so slow

Like fragile tiny shells

Drifting in the foam

Little soldier boy

Come marching home

Brave soldier boy

Comes marching home

Leaves from the vine

From branches grown

Slowly drifting down

Resting on the loam

Little soldier boy

Taken from home

Forced to fight a war

That's not his own

Leaves from the vine,

Falling so slow

Like fragile tiny shells

Drifting in the foam

Little soldier boy

Come marching home

Brave soldier boy

Comes marching home

Leaves from the vine

From branches grown

Slowly drifting down

Resting on the loam

Little soldier boy

Came home from war

Now he's home to stay

Forever more
