[Dolly Parton, Mindy Smith, Dan Tyminski, Alison Krauss - The Cruel War lyrics]
The Cruel War is raging, Johnny has to fight
I want to be with him from morning to night
I want to be with him, it grieves my heart so
Won't you let me go 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 go with you?
No, my love, no
I'll tie back my hair
Men's clothing I'll put on
I'll pass as your comrade, as we march along
I'll pass as your comrade
No one will ever know
Won't you let me go with you?
No, my love, no
Oh Johnny, oh Johnny, I fear you are unkind
I love you far better than all of mankind
I love you far better than
Words can e're express
Won't you let me go with you?
Yes, my love, yes
Yes, My Love, Yes
I want to be with him from morning to night
I want to be with him, it grieves my heart so
Won't you let me go 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 go with you?
No, my love, no
I'll tie back my hair
Men's clothing I'll put on
I'll pass as your comrade, as we march along
I'll pass as your comrade
No one will ever know
Won't you let me go with you?
No, my love, no
Oh Johnny, oh Johnny, I fear you are unkind
I love you far better than all of mankind
I love you far better than
Words can e're express
Won't you let me go with you?
Yes, my love, yes
Yes, My Love, Yes
