Dressed in black Ready to fight Darkness falls And it's black as night You hear the Sargeant call at last Are you for the attack You grab your boots, clothes, and gun No, no, this isn't fun Now you're running Gun in hand You're ready to fight For your land Running for safety Her face in your mind You say, "Sweet Charity" As you leave camp behind You hope to make it out Before the last attack Her face was still in your mind As everything went black Now I'm lying here crying With Charity by my side I can tell that inside she's dying Though she tries hard not to cry "He fought for us, He fought to protect us. He put his life in danger for us, And he died for us." Charity smiles a weak smile Her eyes grow dim Yes, it may take awhile But she'll never get over him Listen closely, my love I understand that for us, you died You held us above So now, my love, I will say, "Good-Bye"
