Peter, Paul & Mary - Cruel War Lyrics
The cruel war is raging, johnny has to fightI want to be with him from morning to night.I want to be with him, it grieves my heart so,Wont you let me go with you?No, my love, no.Tomorrow is sunday, monday is the dayThat your captain will call you and you must obey.Your captain will call you it grieves my heart so,Wont you let me go with you?No, my love, no.Ill tie back my hair, mens clothing Ill put on,Ill pass as your comrade, as we march along.Ill pass as your comrade, no one will ever know.Wont you let me go with you?No, my love, no.Oh johnny, oh johnny, I fear you are unkindI love you far better than all of mankind.I love you far better than words can ere expressWont you let me go with you?Yes, my love, yes.Yes, my love, yes.
