Dear Uncle Sam

Dear Uncle Sam,

I know your a busy man,

And tonight I write to you

through tears with a tremblin' hand.



My darlin answered when

He got that call from you.

You said you really need him

But you don't need him like I do.



Don't misunderstand

I know he's fighting for our land

I really love my country

But I also love my man.

He proudly wears the colors

Of the ole red, white, and blue

While I wear a heartache

Since he left me for you.



Dear Uncle Sam

I just got your telegram

And I can't believe that this is me

Shakin like I am

For it said

"I'm sorry to inform you..."
