| Lyrics: | CRUEL WAR
(GGAC) C F C G C / F C F C / C F C G C / F C F C
The cruel war is
raging, Johnny has to fight.
I long to be with him from morning 'till night.
I want to be
with him, it grieves my heart so
Won't you let me come 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 come with
you? No, my love, no.
I'll tie back my hair, men's clothing I'll put on.
I'll pass
for your comrade as we march along.
I'll pass for your comrade, no one will ever
know
Won't you let me come with you? No, my love, no.
Oh Johnny, oh Johnny, I feel
you are unkind
I love you far better than all of mankind
I love you far better than words
can e'er express
Won't you let me come with you? Yes, my love, yes.
They marched
into battle, she never left his side
'Til a bullet shell struck her and love was denied.
A
bullet shell struck her, tears came to Johnny's eyes
As he knelt down beside her, she silently
died.
