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 |
