- Billy_Don't_Be_a_Hero abstract ""Billy Don't Be A Hero" is a 1974 anti-war pop song that was first a hit in the UK for Paper Lace and then some months later it was a hit in the US for Bo Donaldson and the Heywoods. The song was written by two British song writers Mitch Murray and Peter Callander.Because the song was released in 1974, it is often associated with the Vietnam War, though it actually refers to the American Civil War as evidenced by the "soldier blues" (the Union Forces) in the lyrics and on the cover of the single. Also, Paper Lace would perform the song on pop shows wearing Union uniforms. A young woman is distraught that her fiancé chooses to leave the area with an Army contingent passing through the town and go with them to fight. She laments,"Billy, don't be a hero, Don't be a fool with your life"Billy, don't be a hero, Come back and make me your wife"And as he started to go, she said, 'keep your pretty head low' "Billy, don't be a hero, Come back to me"The song goes on to describe how Billy is killed in action in a pitched battle after volunteering to ride out and seek reinforcements (which suggests mounted infantry and a lack of modern two-way radio communications). In the end, the woman throws away the regret letter from the War Department notifying her of Billy's "heroic" death.".
