Songtext von Buy Juanita Some Flowers

My outfit was stationed near a small border town I met her one day in a small cabaret I discovered just off the camp ground Her name was Juanita and I loved her so And I took from my hand that gold wedding band That I wore back home Each weekend I'd buy Juanita some flowers And wrap them up in lies I'd buy Juanita some flowers So she couldn't see the shame in my eyes I just couldn't tell her that our love couldn't be So I lied to amuse her cause I knew I'd lose her If she learned the truth about me For the sake of this woman I've forsaken my soul But her kiss was to blame it set off a flame I couldn't control Each weekend I'd buy Juanita some flowers... And then someone told her that I had a wife I tried to explain but her gun spit a flame And as I fell she took her own life And now it's all over I won't last I know Do one thing for me in her memory Before I go Won't someone please buy Juanita some flowers For all the trust she gave Please buy Juanita some flowers And place them for me upon her grave
