Lyrics

[ Duet with Ferlin Husky ] 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 lawn And tonight I wed another dear John I was overseas in battle when the postman came to me And he handed me a letter and I was just as happy as I could be For the fighting was all over and the battle have been won Then I opened up the letter and it's started dear John Dear John oh how I hate to write... Will 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 Now the ceremony has started and I wed your brother Don Would you wishes happiness forever dear John
