Dear John

Dear John (Dear John)

Oh, how I hate to write

Dear John (Dear John)

I must let you know tonight

That my love for you has gone

There's no reason to go on

For tonight I wed another, dear John

I was overseas in battle when the postman came to me. And he handed

me a letter. Aw, I was happy as I could be. You see, the fighting was all over and

the battles, they'd all been won. Then I, I opened up the letter and it started "Dear

John."

Will you please send back my picture? You see, my husband wants it

now. When I tell you who I'm wedding you won't care, dear, anyhow. Now the

ceremony has started and I'll wed your brother Don. Please wish us happiness

forever, dear John.
