THE WOMEN ON THE WALL
©1991 - music and words by John R. Black, ℗ 42nd Street Music Seattle
On this earth at another time
You gave your life to save mine
In that war so far away
You cared for me in a special way
I heard your voice as you spoke to me
You gave up what you could be
You nursed me through the lonely nights
As the rockets came 'til dawn's early light
Oh Oh Farewell (Carol Drazba 1966)
Oh Oh Farewell (Elizabeth Jones 1966)
(Chorus:)
Women on the Wall
Your spirit is strong
Women on the Wall
The boys say so long
Women on the Wall
God bless you all
We'll always remember
The Women on the Wall
At Saigon, Chu Lai and Pleiku
Your tenderness was all we knew
You gave us strength, kept hope alive
You gave your love so we'd survive
Oh Oh Farewell (Eleanor Alexander 1967)
Oh Oh Farewell (Hedwig Orlowski 1967)
(Chorus)
Carol and Elizabeth you're living on
Eleanor and Hedwig not really gone
Pamela and Sharon history will tell
Annie and Mary we'll remember you well
Oh Oh Farewell (Pamela Donovan 1968/Sharon Lane 1968)
Oh Oh Farewell (Annie Graham 1969/Mary Klinker 1975)
(Chorus)
Women on the Wall
Your spirit is strong
Women on the Wall
The boys say so long
Women on the Wall
God bless you all
We'll always remember
The Women on the Wall
With love in our hearts
The Women on the Wall
We'll always remember
The Women on the Wall.
