A Special Song For Wanda - The Statler Brothers

Wanda was alone at night while he was somewhere servin'

A Navy wife with too much spare time on her hands

His letters were a comfort and I think she really loved him

But paper words don’t fill the space when someone needs a man

And I’d just like to sing a special song for Wanda

Cause Wanda was a special friend of mine

And somewhere makin' up his bed in Newport News Virginia

I hope Wanda hears my song and plays it one more time

Wanda gave me everything a body ever needed

But a body’s needs will sometimes lead a soul to sin

She was only lonesome a wife on leave of duty

She went down in history and probably will again

And I’d just like to sing a special song for Wanda

Cause Wanda was a special friend of mine

And somewhere makin' up his bed in Newport News Virginia

I hope Wanda hears my song and plays it one more time

I hope Wanda hears my song and plays it one more time…
