| The Cruel War |
| The cruel war is raging, Johnnie has to fight. |
| I want to be with him from morning to night. |
| I want to be with him, it grieves my heart so, |
| won’t you let me go with you? |
| No, my love no. |
| Tomorrow is Sunday, Monday is the day |
| That your captain will call you, and you must obey. |
| Your captain will call you, it grieves my heart so, |
| won’t you let me go with you? |
| No, my love no. |
| I’ll tie back my hair, men’s clothing 'll put on, |
| I’ll pass as your comrade as we march along |
| I’ll pass as your comrade it grieves my heart so, |
| Won’t you let me go with you? |
| No, my love no. |
| Oh Johnnie, Oh Johnnie, I fear you are unkind |
| I love you far better than all of mankind |
| I love you far better than words can ere express, |
| Won’t you let me go with you? |
| Yes, my love, Yes. |
