Thread Name: Lyr Req: Goodbye Johnny Dear
Subject: RE: Lyr Req: Goodbye Johnny Dear
Think the last verse goes.....


One day a letter came for me. It came from Ireland.
The postmark showed it came from home. 'Twas not my mother's hand.
'Twas Father Dan who wrote to tell me she had passed away,
Though up in heaven I still could hear my mother's sweet voice say—

(Chorus) Goodbye, Johnny dear, etc.


Hope this helps.
