Cruel War

Cruel War - Peter, Paul & Mary (彼得、保羅和瑪麗)

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 ere express

Won't you let me go with you?

Yes, my love, yes.

Yes, my love, yes.
