Lyrics A Dear John Letter (Remastered) - Jean Shepard , 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
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'll wed another 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
Would you wishes happiness forever dear John
