maybe you're worried and blue.
you've the whole world to gain,
For someday your dreams will come true
Your mother is praying for you, son
Asking the Savior to guide you
To watch over you all the while
Fight and be brave for the morrow,
We'll drive the dark clouds far away,
For the one who is praying for you.
Yes, Olya, you can afford to be brave
Think of that old sweetheart,
And then think of your old mother,
cause you went over there to fight
and all things that's right
So you've no need to worry, son,
Cause she's too busy filling stamp books
Just keep up the courage, soldier,
You'll set the whole wide world free,
and then back o 'er the waves.
You'll come sailing a hero
to the one that loves you,
To that loving old mother
who's been praying for you.
Your mother is praying for you, son,
Asking the Savior to guide you,
to watch over you all the while.
Fight and be brave for tomorrow,
we'll drive the dark clouds far away.
For the one who is praying for you.
