Johnny Dear

Lyrics

Two whole years of a mill worker'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 know it's true
 We can never be one
 Johnny love, I'd die for you
 Though our time is done
