[00:00.00]Five Miles From Home (Soon I'll See Mary) - Bob Luman
[00:07.31]The night was dark and cold the rain was falling down
[00:14.11]And on the road a soldier walked just thirty miles from town
[00:21.55]Though the cold wind chilled him to the very bone
[00:27.82]He looked up to the skies and smiled just thirty miles from home
[00:36.88]Soon I'll see Mary I missed her so
[00:43.45]I'll be home for thirty days just twenty miles to go
[00:55.24]He saw the lights of a collar approaching from the rear
[01:02.19]He turned and raised a trembling hand as he passed so near
[01:08.95]But no one would pick a soldier up on the road alone
[01:16.01]Just fifteen miles from home fifteen miles from home
[01:25.45]Soon I'll see Mary I missed her so
[01:31.98]I'll be home for thirty days just ten miles to go
[01:44.02]But early next morning the soldier boy was found
[01:51.54]They say he's stopped to lie and rest upon that frozen ground
[01:57.78]A hundred cars had passed him by walking on the road alone
[02:04.59]But no one would pick a soldier up just five miles from home
[02:14.09]Soon I'll see Mary I missed her so
[02:20.68]I'll be home for thirty days just five miles from home
