Buy Juanita Some Flowers - Billy Walker

作词：Steve Karliski

作曲：Steve Karliski

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 wrap them up in lies

I'd buy Juanita some flowers

So she couldn't see the shame in my eyes

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
