Dont Cry Joni
Jimmy please say you'll wait for me
-
- Jimmy please say you'll wait for me
- I'll grow up some day you'll see
- Saving all my kisses just for you
- Signed with love forever true
- Joni was the girl who lived next door
- I've known her I guess ten years or more
- Joni wrote me a note one day
- And this is what she had to say
- Jimmy please say you'll wait for me
- I'll grow up some day you'll see
- Saving all my kisses just for you
- Signed with love forever true
- Slowly I read her note once more
- Then I went over to the house next door
- Her teardrops fell like rain that day
- When I told Joni what I had to say
- Joni Joni please don't cry
- You'll forget me by and by
- You're just 15 I'm 22
- And Joni I just can't wait for you
- Soon I left our little hometown
- Got me a job and try to settle down
- But these words kept pounding my memory
- The words that Joni said to me
- Jimmy please say you'll wait for me
- I'll grow up some day you'll see
- Saving all my kisses just for you
- Signed with love forever true
- I packed my clothes and I caught a plane
- I had to see Joni I had to explain
- How my heart was filled with her memories
- And ask my Joni if she'd marry me
- I run all the way to the house next door
- But things weren't like they were before
- My teardrops fell like rain that day
- When I heard what Joni had to say
- Jimmy Jimmy please don't cry
- You'll forget me by and by
- It's been five years since you've been gone
- Jimmy I've married your best friend Jone
