A DEAR JOHN LETTER

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.

(Recitation)

I was overseas in battle
when the postman came to me
And he handed me a letter,
I was happy as I could be
For the fighting was all over
and the battle had been won
Then I opened up the letter
and it started, "Dear John."

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'll wed your brother Don
Will you wish us happiness forever,
Dear John?

親愛的約翰
噢！我真不願意寫這封信
親愛的約翰
今晚，我得讓你明白
我對你的愛已消逝
沒有理由再繼續下去
今晚，我已嫁給了別人
親愛的約翰 

<旁白>

我在海外作戰
當郵差向我走來
他交給我一封信
我高興極了
因為戰爭已經結束
所有戰役都獲得了勝利
但是當我打開這封信
它的開頭是：親愛的約翰───

 "你何不把我的相片寄回來，

我的丈夫現在就要"
當我告訴你我要嫁給誰時，

親愛的，無論如何，請別介意
現在婚禮已經要開始了
我要嫁給你的哥哥Don
要祝福我們永遠快樂嗎？
親愛的約翰
