Lily of the Valley [German translation]

I grew up in Alabama in a valley I called home

And I learned to love sweet Lily from the start

But I had to do my duty, yes, I had to do my part

But the thought of leaving Lily breaks my heart

If this war could just be over and I could go back home

If I could hold and kiss her once again

Then if I should die tomorrow after lovin' her tonight

Then I would not feel my life had been in vain

'Cause she's my Lily of the valley

And I want her for my wife

She's my Lily of the valley

I guess I've loved Lily almost all my life

All my life
