Don't Cry Joni(with Joni Lee)Aug. 9, 1975 Conway Twitty

*Jimmy please say you'll wait for me

I'll grow up someday you'll see

Saving all my kisses just for you

Sagned with love

forever true

 

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

 

Repeat *

 

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

 

Joni, Joni please don't cry.  You'll forget me by and by

You're just fifteen.  I'm twenty two

And Joni I just can't wait for you

 

 

Soon I left our little home town

Got me a job and tried to settle down

But these words kept haunting my memory

The words that Joni said to me

 

Repeat*  

 

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 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

 

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 married your best friend John
