Lletres: Loretta Lynn. Dear Uncle Sam.
Dear Uncle Sam
I know you're a busy man
And tonight, I write to you
Through tears with a trembling hand
My darling answered
When he got that call from you
You said you really need him
But you don't need him like I do
Don't misunderstand
I know he's fighting for our land
I really love my country
But I also love my man
He proudly wears the colors
Of the old red, white and blue
While I wear a heartache
Since he left me for you
{Dear Uncle Sam
I just got your telegram
And I can't believe that this is me
Shaking like I am
For it said, "I'm sorry to inform you"}
