Johnny Dear |
| Two whole years of a millworker’s life |
| All worn out by noon |
| Johnny dear, don’t take a wife |
| I’ll be coming home soon |
| First hard snow killed old Sal |
| Farm and family’s all fine |
| Jenny-o, no time now |
| But I’ll write more next time |
| More hard times than I can endure |
| From a letter so cold and strange |
| Johnny mine, I’m not sure |
| I’m so scared you’ve changed |
| Stars above, no it’s true |
| We can never be one |
| Johnny love, I’d die for you |
| Though our time is done |
