Dixie Chicks - Travelin' Soldier

Answer 2

The song is "Travelin' Soldier", by the Dixie Chicks. I have linked to the CD in the sources section. The lyrics are as follows:

Two days past eighteen
He was waiting for the bus in his army green
Sat down in a booth in a cafe there
Gave his order to a girl with a bow in her hair
He's a little shy so she gives him a smile
And he said would you mind sittin' down for a while
And talking to me,
I'm feeling a little low
She said I'm off in an hour and I know where we can go

So they went down and they sat on the pier
He said I bet you got a boyfriend but I don't care
I got no one to send a letter to
Would you mind if I sent one back here to you

(Chorus:)
I cried
Never gonna hold the hand of another guy
Too young for him they told her
Waitin' for the love of a travelin' soldier
Our love will never end
Waitin' for the soldier to come back again
Never more to be alone when the letter said
A soldier's coming home

So the letters came from an army camp
In California then Vietnam
And he told her of his heart
It might be love and all of the things he was so scared of
He said when it's getting kinda rough over here
I think of that day sittin' down at the pier
And I close my eyes and see your pretty smile
Don't worry but I won't be able to write for awhile

(Chorus)

One Friday night at a football game
The Lord's Prayer said and the Anthem sang
A man said folks would you bow your heads
For a list of local Vietnam dead
Crying all alone under the stands
Was a piccolo player in the marching band
And one name read and nobody really cared
But a pretty little girl with a bow in her hair

(Chorus 2x)

Answer 3

Are you sure that's what it is called?

Theres a dixie chick song called "Travelin' Soldier".
I haven't seen the music video but it says "One Friday night at a football game"

Here are the lyrics:

Two days past eighteen
He was waiting for the bus in his army green
Sat down in a booth in a cafe there
Gave his order to a girl with a bow in her hair
He's a little shy so she gives him a smile
And he said would you mind sittin' down for a while
And talking to me,
I'm feeling a little low
She said I'm off in an hour and I know where we can go

So they went down and they sat on the pier
He said I bet you got a boyfriend but I don't care
I got no one to send a letter to
Would you mind if I sent one back here to you

Chorus: I cried
Never gonna hold the hand of another guy
Too young for him they told her
Waitin' for the love of a travelin' soldier
Our love will never end
Waitin' for the soldier to come back again
Never more to be alone when the letter said
A soldier's coming home

So the letters came from an army camp
In California then Vietnam
And he told her of his heart
It might be love and all of the things he was so scared of
He said when it's getting kinda rough over here

And one name read and nobody really cared
But a pretty little girl with a bow in her hair

Answer 5

How Do You Get That Lonely
By Blaine Larsen

It was just another story
written on the second page
Underneath the Tiger's football score
It said he was only eighteen,
a boy about my age ,
They found him face down
on his bedroom floor

There'll be services on Friday
at the Lawrence Funeral Home
Then out on Mooresville highway,
they'll lay him 'neath a stone...

How do you get that lonely?
How do you hurt that bad?
To make you make the call,
that havin' no life at all
Is better than the life that you had.
How do you feel so empty
you want to let it all go?
How do you get that lonely...
and nobody know?

Did his girlfriend break up with him?
Did he buy or steal that gun?
Did he lose a fight with drugs or alcohol?
Did his Mom and Daddy forget
to say I love you son?
Did no one see the writing on the wall?

I'm not blamin' anybody,
we all do the best we can
I know hindsight's 20/20,
but I still don't understand...

How do you get that lonely?
How do you hurt that bad?
To make you make the call
that havin' no life at all
Is better than the life that you had?
How do you feel so empty
you want to let it all go?
How do you get that lonely...
and nobody know ?

It was just another story
printed on the second page
Underneath the Tiger's football score...

Answer 6

It sounds a little bit like Travelin' Soldier by The Dixie Chicks and a little bit like How do you get that lonely by Blaine Larsen.

Answer 7

Travelin' Soldier by The Dixie Chicks is the only thing coming to mind that is very similar to that, only thing is it is 3 girls, not a young boy
