{Key of A}

                (Chorus)

Murphy
Audie Murphy was his name,
He fought the Germans in World War 2
And starred his way to fame,
First he wore a soldier's suit
And then a cowboy gun,
He shot up some real bad guys
And I guess he had some fun.  

                (Verse 1)  

He was born in Texas
In 1924,
He was huntin' rabbit
By the time he hit the floor,
No one knew he would go on
To such world wide fame,
The World's Most Decorated Soldier
That our country claims.  

                (Chorus)

Murphy
Audie Murphy was his name,
He fought the Germans in World War 2
And starred his way to fame,
First he wore a soldier's suit
And then a cowboy gun,
He shot up some real bad guys
And I guess he had some fun.  

                (Musical Bridge)  

                (Verse 2)

Now he told his story
In the book "To Hell and Back",
Audie had a trick or two
Hid in his soldier's pack,
In the movies he once starred
As Billy the Kid,
Our country never shall forget
The heroic things he did.  

                (Chorus)  

Murphy
Audie Murphy was his name,
He fought the Germans in World War 2
And starred his way to fame,
First he wore a soldier's suit
And then a cowboy gun,
He shot up some real bad guys
And I guess he had some fun.  

                (Verse 3)  

We lost him in Virginia
High on a mountain top,
Mysteriously, we don't know why
His airplane up and dropped,
They buried him in Arlington
With all the other greats,
He was much to young to die
The day he met his fate.  

                (Chorus)  

Murphy
Audie Murphy was his name,
He fought the Germans in World War 2
And starred his way to fame,
First he wore a soldier's suit
And then a cowboy gun,
He shot up some real bad guys
And I guess he had some fun.  

                (Repeat Chorus)  

Murphy
Audie Murphy was his name,
He fought the Germans in World War 2
And starred his way to fame,
First he wore a soldier's suit
And then a cowboy gun,
He shot up some real bad guys
And I guess he had some fun.  

                (Tag)

Yea, he shot up some real bad guys
And I hope he had some fun.
