RADIO ANNOUNCER
And now back to our lovely Savannah Star Cigarette Singers!

1ST SINGER
You know girls, there’s so many of you got a fellow off fighting the war.

2ND SINGER
Even if you don’t know where he is—you sure got his picture on your dresser or hanging on the wall by the American flag.

3RD SINGER
But what about us who haven’t met him yet?

1ST AND 2ND
Haven’t met him yet?

3RD
I just know he’s out there fighting for everything he and I believe in—what we all believe in: freedom, and kindness, and goodness. And he’s brave and handsome and kind and good. Only one problem.

1ST AND 2ND
What problem?

3RD
I just haven’t met him yet!

SAVANNAH STAR
CIGARETTE SINGERS

Meet me where we finally
Find each other, in the park on the
Fourth of July, I’ll be waiting,
Please come home.

Greet me, with a smile,
I’ll be cautious, but you’ll feel a spark on the
Fourth of July, I’ll be waiting,
Please come home.

We’ll go hear the band play
Stars and Stripes, watch a kid flying a kite,
We'll sit by the river till the sun goes down
And the fireworks ignite.

There are so many things
We’ve waited to say, but we’ll hardly speak
On the Fourth of July, I'll never stop waiting,
Please come home.

Although I have never met you,
In my dreams it is emphatically clear
That the river and the park and the town I live in
Won’t be home,
Won’t be home until you’re here.
