Jeannie and Johnny both grew up together Playmates each hour of the day They both vowed that they would be sweethearts forever Then one day Jeannie moved away (away, away) Johnny was lonely, loved Jeannie only Jeannie was sad and so blue Their folk said, forget it, but Jeannie and Johnny Knew that no other would do They wrote to each other and as they grew older Their love, much stronger, had grown Then one day a letter from Jeannie to Johnny Came back to her, address unknown Johnny was lonely, loved Jeannie only Jeannie was sad and so blue Where Johnny had gone to she knew not the answer But she knew she'd wait and be true The next day poor Jeannie just couldn't stop cryin' Though tears wouldn't come anymore Her world seemed so empty that she felt like dyin' Then she heard a knock on her door And there stood her Johnny, her true lovin' Johnny He'd come to make wedding plans He said, oh, I love you, my Jeannie, I love you Then he placed a ring on her hand He placed a ring on her hand
