Paroles de Remember My Forgotten Man

I don't know if he deserves a bit of sympathy

Forget your sympathy, that's all right with me

I was satisfied to drift along from day to day
Till they came and took my man away



Remember my forgotten man

You put a rifle in his hand

You sent him far away

You shouted: "Hip-hooray!"

But look at him today



Remember my forgotten man

You had him cultivate the land
But look at him right now



And once, he used to love me

I was happy then

He used to take care of me

Won't you bring him back again?

'Cause ever since the world began

A woman's got to have a man

Forgetting him, you see

Means you're forgetting me

Like my forgotten man
