Album | Peter, Paul And Mary |
The cruel war is raging, johnny 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 I’ll put on, | |
I’ll pass as your comrade, as we march along. | |
I’ll pass as your comrade, no one will ever know. | |
Won’t you let me go with you? | |
No, my love, no. | |
Oh johnny, oh johnny, I fear you are unkind | |
I love you far better than all of mankind. | |
I love you far better than words can e’re express | |
Won’t you let me go with you? | |
Yes, my love, yes. | |
Yes, my love, yes. |
