text: 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
  Wont 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
  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 unkind
  I love you far better than all of mankind
  I love you far better than words can ere express
  Wont you let me go with you?
  Yes, my love, yes
  Yes, My Love, Yes
