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...'
