A young woman is distraught that her fiancé chooses to enlist with Army recruiters passing through the town, causing her to implore him: Billy, don't be a hero, Don't be a fool with your lifeBilly, don't be a hero, Come back and make me your wifeAnd as he started to go, she said, 'Billy keep your head low'Billy, don't be a hero, Come back to me.
