Dear John Letter Lyrics

(Billy Barton - Lewis Talley - Fuzzy Owen)

Dear John, oh how I hate to write

I was overseas in battle when the mail called up to me
And they handed me a letter why I was happy as could be
For the fighting was all over and the battle had been won
Then I opened up the letter and that started Dear John.

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 lawnLoretta Lynn - Dear John Letter - http://motolyrics.com/loretta-lynn/dear-john-letter-lyrics.html
And tonight I wed another dear John.

Will you please send back my picture
My husband wants it now
And when I tell you who I'm marrying
Well, you won't care dear anyhow.

Now the ceremony has started
And I'll wed your brother Don
Will you wish us happiness forever dear John
And tonight I wed another dear John...
