Lyrics Ernest Tubb

Ernest Tubb

When A Soldier Knocks And Finds Nobody Home

I'm alone with all my sorrow it's so hard to face tomorrow

'Cause I knocked and no one met me at the door

I have asked the next door neighbor what you packed and went away for

But they only say, you don't live here no more

When I sailed across the blue, I thought I could count on you

But I've come back home sweetheart to find you've gone

It's a shame you couldn't be here what a sorry sight to see here

When a soldier knocks and finds nobody home

When I sailed across the blue, I thought I could count on you

But I've come back home sweetheart to find you've gone

It's a shame you couldn't be here what a sorry sight to see here

When a soldier knocks and finds nobody home
