Lyrics Lili Marlene - Hank Snow
Would
you
like
to
hear
the
story
Of
a
girl
that
many
soldiers
know
It's
a
tale
of
love
and
all
its
glory
They
tell
when
the
lights
are
soft
and
low.
Underneath
the
lamp
post
by
the
barrack's
gate
Standing
all
alone
every
night
you
see
her
wait
She
waits
for
the
boy
who
marched
away
And
though
he's
gone
she
hears
him
say.
Oh,
promise
you'll
be
true
Fare
thee
well
Lily
Marlene
Till
I'll
return
to
you
Fare
thee
well
Lily
Marlene.
With
the
kiss
she
gave
her
promise
To
be
constant
as
the
stars
up
above
Every
soldier
knows
she
kept
her
promise
And
she
has
been
faithful
to
her
love.
(Underneath
the
lamp
post
by
the
barrack's
gate
Standing
all
alone
every
night
you
see
her
wait
For
this
is
the
place
a
vow
was
made
And
breezes
sing
her
serenade.)
Oh,
promise
you'll
be
true
Fare
thee
well
Lily
Marlene
Till
I'll
return
to
you
Fare
thee
well
Lily
Marlene.
Although
each
tale
must
have
an
ending
No
one
knows
just
what
the
end
will
be
But
tonight
when
twilight
is
descending
If
you'll
come
along
here's
what
you'll
see.
Underneath
the
lamp
post
by
the
barrack's
gate
Standing
all
alone
every
night
you
see
her
wait
And
as
they
go
marching
to
the
prey
The
soldiers
all
salute
and
say.
Well,
tell
him
you've
been
true
Fare
thee
well
Lily
Marlene
Till
he
returns
to
you
Fare
thee
well
Lily
Marlene...
