Conway Twitty -Don't cry Jony
Woman- Jimmy please say you'll wait for meI'll grow up some day you'll see
saving all my kisses just for you
Shine with love
forever true
Man- Joni was the girl who lived next door
I've known her I guess 10 years or more
Joni wrote me a note one day
and this is what she had to say
Woman- 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
for ever true
Man- Slowly I read her note once more
Then I went over to the house next door
Her tear drops fell like rain that day
When I told Joni what I had to say
Man- Joni, Joni please don't cry
You'll forget me by and by
You are just fifteen
I am twenty tow
And Joni I just can wait for you
Man- Soon I left our little home town
Got me a job and tried to settle down
But these words that Joni said to me
Woman- Jimmy please say you'll wait for me
I will grow up some day you'll see
saving all my kisses just for you
Signed with love
Forever true
Man- I packed my clothes
And I caught a plan
I had to see Joni
I had to explain
How my heart was filled
With her memory
And ask my Joni if she'd marry me
I ran all the way
To the house next door
But things weren't like they were before
My tear drops fell like rain that day
When I heard what Joni had to say
Woman- Jimmy, Jimmy please don't cry
You will forget me by and by
It's been five years since you have been gone
Jimmy I married your best friend Jo
