Dear John, oh, how I hate to write Dear John, I must let you know tonight That my love for you has died the way like gra** upon the lawn And tonight I wed another, dear John. I was overseas in battle when the postman came to me He handed me a letter and I was just as happy as I could be Cause the fighting was all over and the battles have all been won But then I opened up the letter and that started, dear John. Won't you please send back my picture my husband wants it now When I tell you who I'm wedding you won't care dear anyhow And it hurts me so to tell you that my love for you has gone But tonight I wed your brother, dear John. And tonight I wed another, dear John...
