Bring Him Back Home for a While
Each Week by Sending Him
The Home Paper
The Son, Brother, Sweetheart or Husband,
Who Is Serving You And His Country
In The Service
t
e...
A PAPER FROM HOME
V/hatever you send to your boy, far away
In strange lands where he fights for his country today,
He will welcome with joy, like the hand of a friend,
His heart will be glad of whatever you send.
If it’s candy or socks, if it’s cake, cigarettes,
He’ll be glad of the loved one who never forgets,
In bright isles of the tropics, or chill, northern lands,
He’ll be glad of that one who so well understands
How a fellow is proud to be fighting and still
Finds no serene in Australia or China to thrill
His heart, no adventure where soldiers may roan.
That can match what he finds in the paper from home!
"The paper from home! It is read into rags
And there’s never a moment his interest lags;
For just while he reads it he’s back once again,
Walking streets that are tranquil and ways free from pain.
The houses look friendly, the faces all smiles,
As the paper from home takes him hack for a while.
