A Dear John Letter
Dear John, oh how I hate to write
Dear John I must let you know tonight
That my love for you has died
Away like grass upon the lawn
And tonight I wed another, dear John
Dear John,
I was overseas in battle when the postman came to me
He handed me a letter
And I was just as happy as I could be
'Cause the fighting was all over
And the battles have all been won
But then I opened up the letter
And that started dear John
And tonight I wed another, dear John
Dear John,
Won't you please send back my picture,
My husband wants it now
When I tell you who I'm wedding
You won't care dear anyhow
And it hurts me so to tell you
That my love for you has gone
But tonight I wed your brother dear John
And tonight I wed another dear John
Dear John I must let you know tonight
That my love for you has died
Away like grass upon the lawn
And tonight I wed another, dear John
Dear John,
I was overseas in battle when the postman came to me
He handed me a letter
And I was just as happy as I could be
'Cause the fighting was all over
And the battles have all been won
But then I opened up the letter
And that started dear John
And tonight I wed another, dear John
Dear John,
Won't you please send back my picture,
My husband wants it now
When I tell you who I'm wedding
You won't care dear anyhow
And it hurts me so to tell you
That my love for you has gone
But tonight I wed your brother dear John
And tonight I wed another dear John
